Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Ed! My family and I are huge fans of the
Disney Dining Plan and we use it almost every time we go on vacation. We love that we can try new things, eat all of our favorites, and still save money and keep an eye on our budget.
In the years that I've been traveling to Walt Disney World Resort, I have seen the Free Dining offer released at a few different times during the year, and this year's promotion was made available in early January until February 10 for select arrival dates between July 5 and September 30, 2019. I don't expect it to pop up again before your vacation, but there are often
special offers, deals, and discounts for arrival dates throughout the year, so keep checking and see if anything applies to you! I also like to frequently check the
Disney Parks Blog. Not only does it keep me up to date with all the things happening at Walt Disney World Resort, they also post articles about some deals and special offers when they become available to guests.
If you still want to add the Disney Dining Plan to your vacation package, which you can do up to 24 hours before your arrival date, you can
contact Disney Resort Hotel Reservations and a friendly Cast Member will help you set it up.
Have a magical day, Ed!
