Hello Louise!
Welcome to planDisney, and thank you for visiting us with your question. Your magical vacation will be here before you know it! Fall is a terrific time to visit Walt Disney World. I hope you'll get a chance to enjoy the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival during your stay. Check out the
Festival Foodie Guide recently published on the Disney Parks Blog, so you can plan out some favorites to try.
Fantasmic Dinner Packages are a slightly different type of reservation than a normal advance dining reservation for
Hollywood & Vine. One way you can tell if you've got the Fantasmic package booked, is to check your reservation plans in
My Disney Experience. You should see a description saying “Fantasmic! Dining Package” next to the restaurant name. Your confirmation email for the reservation would be another place to check.
If you do not see this, don't panic! You can't convert your existing reservation to a package reservation. But you can easily make some adjustments to your pixie-dusted plans.
Head to the
Fantasmic Dining Package page first, then click "check availability" to make a new dining package reservation for Hollywood and Vine. This experience is eligible to use with the Disney Dining Plan, so that's great news. Once you've got a new Fantasmic Dining Package reserved and confirmed in your plans, then I would go ahead and cancel your original Hollywood & Vine reservation.
I hope this makes sense and provided some assistance. Please
send me another question if there's anything else I can help with. I'll be wishing upon a star that you have a wonderful vacation at Disney World, Louise!
Magical memories await,
Tami
