    Planning to use some snack credits for food booth items. Want to use credit for more pricey items, Can I order multiple items at a booth but specify which one I would like to use a snack credit for and pay for the rest out of pocket? Thanks!

    Welcome back to planDisney, Hailley!

    When touring Walt Disney World, my family and I are big fans of the Disney Dining Plan, and I think your strategy to utilize some of those snacks from the plan is brilliant. Well done!

    We love visiting EPCOT during one of the festivals, and the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival is truly unmatched. The landscape just bursts with floral color--even more so than usual--and there are so many beautiful details added during this festival, you'll be sure to want to linger as you tour World Showcase.

    Hailley, I have always explained to a Cast Member how I'd like to pay for any particular dining order, and doing so while sampling special offerings at the festival's Outdoor Kitchens is no exception. As you order, simply tell the CM serving you which scrumptious items you'd like to enjoy using that Dining Plan. Any additional items you've ordered can be paid for just like any other order: cash, credit card, or even Disney Gift Cards will finish that transaction beautifully. 

    We've loved Disney Dining Plans for years, and I'm sure you'll agree that dining around the world is so much easier when you use that plan wisely. Keep your eye on those Outdoor Kitchen menus and spend your dining dollars on the pricier items you'd like to try. Pay out of pocket for the rest. Easy peasy!

    Hailley, as you plan your positively pixie-dusted visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth, be sure to send additional questions our way. We love to help!
