Hi there Bess!
I'm so glad that you decided to visit the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question.
If you decide to upgrade your Magic Your Way Vacation package to include a Disney Dining Plan or Deluxe Dining Plan, your pre-payment for your current reservation at
Cinderella's Royal Table will indeed be refunded to you. Cinderella's Royal Table does accept the Disney Dining Plan as payment at a rate of 2 Table Service Credits per Guest.
To make these adjustments, you'll first want to process the changes to your Magic Your Way Vacation Package. Call a Cast Member at (407) 939-7675 to have your changes and upgrades processed. At the end of your call, ask to be transferred to speak with a Disney Dining Cast Member. Be sure to have your confirmation number for Cinderella's Royal Table handy at the time of your call. The Disney Dining Cast Member will credit your card back for the pre-payment and properly associate your Disney Dining plan with the reservation. At the time of dining, 2 Table Service Credits per Guest will be deducted from your Disney Dining Plan or Deluxe Dining Plan. A credit card will be kept on file as a 'guarantee' for this reservation. The Disney Dining Cast Member will review the dining location's cancellation policies at the time of the adjustments being made to your reservation.
If you have additional questions about using the Disney Dining Plan or would like additional recommendations for your upcoming visit, please don't hesitate to write me back. I'd love to hear from you again soon Bess!
Wishing you a simply Magical time at Walt Disney World!
Kirsten
