Hi Rose,
Thank you for coming back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel with another question! I am happy to hear that you are considering adding the
Disney Dining Plan to your current Magic Your Way Vacation Package, I love that we have the majority of our meals pre-paid prior to arriving at Walt Disney World Resort. For us it is one less thing to worry about during our vacation.
One of the many things I love about Walt Disney World Resort, is the flexibility that comes with our vacation, and that it can be tailored to your specific needs. If you are using the Disney Dining Plan, while others in your dining party are not, simply inform the Cast Member when you arrive. They will happily split your cheque into different parties, to ensure your Dining Credits are used for your family, while others take care of their part of the cheque.
If you would like to add the Disney Dining Plan, I would recommend calling (407) 939-1936 as soon as possible. A Cast Member will be able to add the Disney Dining Plan to your existing Reservation, provided you do have a Resort Hotel and Theme Park Ticket package booked. This should be done at least 24 hours prior to your arrival, but I like to have things in order as soon as possible, just in case.
I hope you have a magical time at Walt Disney World Resort, Rose. Please let use know if you have any other questions, we are always happy to help.
Stephanie
