    Good day panel. My coworker informed me that she will be visiting in November and that she was able to get free dining. She also informed that free dining is only offered twice a year. When is the next time they will offer this I plan to visit in April.

    Hi Rachelle,

    So glad you'll be able to visit Walt Disney World Resort next spring. I'm sure you will have a wonderful time. Make sure you save some time to visit the 2017 Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival.

    The Disney Dining Plans are a great way to manage the vacation's meal budget and the Free Dining promotions are indeed awesome. Only Mickey (and maybe Yoda) knows what's in store with regards to Special Offers for the future. In years past, this offer has been available for the fall, with a booking window in the previous spring. There used to be an offer for the spring, however during the last couple of years, there's been a discount on a Play, Stay and Dine package, in addition to discounted rooms.

    One of the Disney Resort Hotel Benefits is that Guests may receive some awesome Special Offers. Guests staying at Disney Resort Hotels can book on-site during their vacation and before Check-Out. Currently there is a Free Dining Promotion for travel dates between May 30 and December 20 of 2017.

    One last tip: you can book dining reservations up to 180 days in advance. The easiest way is with the My Disney Experience mobile app. See you real soon!

    Ricardo.
