Welcome back to planDisney, Shari!
I hope you're getting excited for your trip to The Most Magical Place on Earth with your friends! It's so wonderful to share the joy with those closest to you! If you're twiddling your thumbs before you start packing, I highly recommend watching "Behind the Attraction" on Disney+ as a great way to prep before your trip. I've really loved gaining insight about some of my favorite rides! It's made me appreciate their history and stories even more!
Dining Plans are seriously one of my most favorite ways to budget for a Disney vacation! It really is a great deal, and I love that I can prepay for all of my food before I arrive! I hope that your friend will consider this incredible offering!
Unfortunately, there is not currently an option to add Dining Plans for some of the Guests on your reservation, Shari. Either you will all need to have the plan or none of you will be able to have the plan. The dining entitlements are given on a "per person" basis according to the
hotel reservation occupants. So hopefully your party can decide what will work best for everyone!
If you do not end up adding the Dining Plan to your reservation, I would recommend pre-purchasing
Disney Gift Cards as a way to budget for your food! This is a great way to practice conscious spending while on your vacation.
We always love hearing from you at planDisney, Shari. If you have additional questions, you know where to find us!
Have a great, big, beautiful tomorrow,
Allyn
