    With the quick service dining plan, do I need to get a drink with my meal or could I substitute a drink for a cupcake?

    Hi there, Hollie, and welcome to planDisney! I couldn't be more excited that you're here today with this great question about your upcoming vacation at Walt Disney World Resort! It's such a great time to think about all of those special details that will make your vacation that much better!

    Hollie, in the past there has been some flexibility in substituting items when using a dining plan. In 2024, however, there is not as much ability to make substitutions. If you have specific requests, I definitely recommend asking a helpful Cast Member when placing your order. Technically, your quick-service meal will come with a drink, so you will most likely need to place an order that includes a drink.

    Now you've got me thinking about cupcakes! If you happen to see a cupcake that has a little purple-pink DDP logo next to it on the menu, you will be able to use a snack to order it. I find that I end up using most of my snacks when I head over to EPCOT, so I save up a few for that day. And if you find that you have snacks left over as you're heading back home, you can head to the gift shop at your Disney Resorts Collection hotel and pick up some shelf-stable cookies or bags of candy to take back with you. That's a souvenir worth grabbing!

    Hollie, I hope this is helpful to you as you're planning where to eat during your vacation. If you need any recommendations on where to find amazing meals, snacks, and drinks, you have a friend in me! Please stop back by planDisney anytime!

    Bon appetit!
