Hi William,
I see that you're planning a
summer getaway to The Most Magical Place on Earth! I hope you're having fun dreaming about all of the magic and fun...
and scrumptious
meals, snacks, and drinks you'll enjoy during your visit!
Under the
phased reopening, the
Disney Dining Plans have not been available for purchase or use. While we don't know yet when they'll return, I'd encourage you to keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog or
Disney's official social media channels for updates and announcements. I know we're all wishing on a star that they'll be back again soon! In the meantime, I do have a suggestion for you. Why don't you take the amount of money you would have spent on a Disney Dining Plan and put it on a
Disney Gift Card instead? While it's not exactly the same, it's still a convenient way to prepay for your meals, and Disney Gift Card balances are easy to track, which helps you budget and plan accordingly.
Of course I can't talk about Disney food without mentioning the
Taste of EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, which will still be going on during your visit. Yes, the blooms are beautiful, the topiaries inspiring, and the entertainment awesome, but the food? Mmm...so many tasty bites and beverages to try! I'd definitely encourage you to check out the
Disney Parks Blog foodie guide prior to your trip!
Thanks so much for stopping by planDisney, William, and please feel free to come see us again if you have any other questions as you're planning your visit. I hope you have a truly magical...and delicious...vacation.
Missy
