Hey, Bonnie!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! November is going to be amazing with your month finale at
Walt Disney World Resort. I know you will have a
supercalifragilisticexpialidocious time!
Yes, you may use a
Disney Dining Plan Table Service entitlement for a Counter/Quick-Service meal but not the other way around. I would suggest not doing this because you will not get the full value of using the dining plan. Table Service meals are much more expensive than Counter/Quick-Service meals and to really get your value you should keep meal entitlements in their specific category.
Disney Dad Tip: If you find it difficult to make a Table Service reservation in advance then follow these tips.
1. Make the reservation online over calling.
2. Check availability weekly online through
My Disney Experience or by calling 407-WDW-DINE (407-939-3463).
3. Stay flexible. Search for times 30-60 minutes beyond your desired time and show up early. If there is availability you will likely be seated early.
4. About 6 weeks out from your desired dining time people will begin canceling reservations. Most cancel between 8:30 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. This is prime time to pick up your desired reservation. Make sure to check daily.
5. As a last resort, try to be taken as a walk-in. Cancellations happen at the last minute due to a variety of reasons and you'll be there to scoop up a table.
Bonnie, enjoy making many delicious and Magical Memories!
