Hello, Andrea!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Thank you so much for your question and allowing us to be a part of planning your MAGICAL Walt Disney World vacation!
When you use the Disney Dining Plan,
gratuities are not included in your bill, and they will not be charged to your room without permission. However, if you have a party of six or more, an automatic 18% gratuity is charged to your bill.
You are not required to tip, but these Cast Members work incredibly hard to make your dining experience something unforgettable and amazing! Because each Cast Member does every little thing with excellence, I am sure you will want to bless them for making your Walt Disney World vacation the best ever!!
If you have other questions, please do not hesitate to ask!
Have a MAGICAL day!
Wes
