    If we get the dining plan & arrive at 9:30am are we able to start using our credits right away (for breakfast or lunch) and still have until midnight of our departure day before they expire? Thank you!

    Hi, Ashley! Disney Dining Plans are such convenient and delicious additions to Magic Your Way Packages. There are a vast array of dining locations across Walt Disney World Resort that accept the various dining plans. It is so easy to find a spot that will fit everyone's tastes. Before you arrive for your vacation, be sure to make Advance Dining Reservations as needed, especially if you are using a plan that includes Table Service meal entitlements!

    You can absolutely begin using your Disney Dining Plan entitlements as soon as you check in to your Walt Disney World Resort hotel. You are correct that they will expire after 11:59 p.m. on your check-out day. This is always a great help on our last day, as we like to take a late flight home. It gives us plenty of time for one last Dole Whip Float ... or three. Be sure to keep an eye on your total remaining entitlements towards the end of your vacation. The My Disney Experience mobile app makes this very easy as you can now follow your Disney Dining Plan use and your resort charging balance directly within the app.

    Thank you for stopping by with your question, Ashley. Please let us know if you discover any other questions you may have as you continue to plan your visit. Hope you have a magical day!
