Hi Erica,
Glad you stop by today at the
Disney Parks Moms Panel. Let me try to help you with your concern.
My family loves the
Dining Plans. They are so convenient as we get to prepay for our meals and don't have to worry about figuring out how much will we spend on food. For us, the
Disney Dining Plan works the best. And it gives us more time to enjoy meals together as a family.
At this time, you exchange three Snacks for one Quick-Service meal, provided this is done in one transaction. But you can you can substitute as many meals as you have entitlements available. This past December my family and I ended up with a couple of extra Quick-Service meals and were able to exchange them for Snacks all at once at
El Mercado de Coronado. And you do not need to do this at the
Front Desk. Simply inform the Cast Member at checkout. Then snack all the way home!
One last tip: remember that all your
Resort Hotel benefits are available from the moment you Check-In until midnight of your Check-Out day. This includes all your meal entitlements. Happy planning!
Ricardo.
