    We are planning our first WDW trip this year! We can't decide between the magic your way plus dining or the deluxe dining. There is a $300 difference between the two. Is it worth it to upgrate to the deluxe dining? Thanks!

    Hi Jessica!

    For me it comes down to 'how much food will I be able to consume without exploding?'  Ok, I kid, I kid...well, not really...It truly does depend.  Are you a foodie?  Is your main reason for visiting Walt Disney World the FOOD?!  Then I'd go deluxe.  If you're a casual diner--wanna-be-foodie (like myself) the Disney Dining Plan is more than enough for me.  Using your credits wisely will give you the opportunity to go a variety of places without feeling stuffed full. 

    Would you be spending $300 to fill in for meals otherwise or planning many signature meals?  If not, I'd forgo the deluxe. 

    Hope this helped!

    Have a magical vacation!
