Greetings, Jenny! I'm happy to welcome you to planDisney and help you with your question!
All sorts of guests choose to add a Disney Dining Plan to their Walt Disney World vacation package. It makes it feel more like an all-inclusive experience, and Disney often has great offers that make it an appealing deal. The
Disney Dining Plans policy states that the meals and snacks are non-transferable. When using it at a restaurant, meals are typically restricted to the number of guests on the reservation.
There are so many choices when it comes to using those dining plan credits! I'll link a list here of
table-service restaurants included in this year's plan. I love a character meal, and
1900 Park Fare at
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is so fun! It's a buffet where you may have the chance to meet Princess Tiana or Mirabel from Encanto, as well as other beloved Disney characters. You should add it to your list!
I see that you will be visiting
Walt Disney World Resort during
Cool KIDS' SUMMER! This is an excellent choice! I am thrilled about all of the events and re-imagined attractions that we will be able to experience in the coming months! I don't have the space to list everything here, so check out
this post on Disney Parks Blog that details several things we have to look forward to. I think I am most excited for the recently reopened
Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin in
Magic Kingdom Park. It has always been a favorite of my entire family, and now the blasters are handheld! I've always been a huge fan of the Muppets, so I can't wait to experience
Rock 'N' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets in
Disney's Hollywood Studios. If you have little ones (and even if you don't!), be sure to stop by Communicore Hall in
EPCOT to have some fun with Goofy. This was the highlight of the trip for my grandson last summer!
Jenny, your dining booking window opens next month, so you can start getting excited about those amazing meals you are going to enjoy! I hope you have a wonderful vacation and make the most magical memories! As you continue your planning, please
let us know if you have any more questions. We're here to help!
Always Dreaming -
