Hi William!
A warm welcome to planDisney. We are thrilled to have you here! Thank you for sending us your great question about Memory Maker and the Disney Dining Plan.
William, you can
purchase Memory Maker for your October Walt Disney World Resort vacation whenever you’d like! In fact, the sooner the better. Currently, you can save $30 by purchasing Memory Maker in advance of your vacation! That’s an extra $30 for snacks and souvenirs, William. I call that a win, win!
Memory Maker - Advance Purchase cannot be activated until 3 days after purchase and it includes all of your vacation Disney PhotoPass pictures and videos! Please keep in mind that even if you purchase Memory Maker now, it will not be active or begin expiring until you start using it in Walt Disney World Resort.
During the phased reopening of Walt Disney World Resort, the Disney Dining Plan has been temporarily suspended. We do not currently know when or if the Disney Dining Plan will be back. I encourage you to keep your eyes and EARS peeled to the
experience updates page for the latest news!
If you have any additional questions, please visit planDisney again. We are always hEAR to help you!
With a Sprinkling of Pixie Dust,
Priscila
