Hi Carol! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
It sounds like you will be using a
Disney dining plan on your upcoming visit! I love having this part of our vacation paid for prior to our visits, so I don't have to worry about budgeting for it while we're enjoying our trip.
I also appreciate the flexibility it offers, especially with the option to use a
Quick-Service meal entitlement for three snack items instead! You are correct that the snack items all have be redeemed in the same transaction, so make sure there are three things that you want instead! Each location has different offerings when making this swap, so be sure to ask a Cast Member what items will qualify for the exchange.
I hope this helps with your planning, Carol! Please visit us again with any other questions you may have. Happy eating!
