Hiya Paula,
Welcome to planDisney! Nothing makes me happier than questions about Disney dining! I was just sitting and researching what I wanted to eat at
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival when I visit in a few weeks. One of my favorite ways to use my snack credits from the dining plan is at the Outdoor Kitchens, so I’ve been carefully researching what to enjoy in May.
I know that in the past, Guests were able to exchange meal credits for snacks under the previous dining plan structure. Unfortunately, since the return of the
dining plans in 2024, Guests can still not use meal credits for snacks and vice versa at this time. Since I’m more of a snacker than a quick-service meal kind of girl, I had almost all of my quick-service dining credits available on the last time of my most recent trip. Rather than let them go to waste at midnight on check-out day, I grabbed a handful of resealable bags and
mobile ordered all my remaining quick service meals. I then put them in bags and ate them as snacks later. It was great to have a little magical reminder of the Most Magical Place on Earth later on, and it saved me from figuring out what to eat later!
I’m sorry I didn’t have better news for you, Paula, but I hope this was still helpful. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that we can exchange credits in the future! Please come back and see us if you need anything else.
Happy Planning,
Ashley F.
