Hello Sian, welcome to planDisney!
I know it is so exciting to have a trip to Walt Disney World Resort planned, and it is extra exciting when you find a current promotion that you can apply to your visit!
You can receive the Disney Dining Promo Card if you’ve purchased a 5-night, 4-day vacation room and ticket package at select Disney Resort hotels. The value of your Disney Dining Promo Card will vary based on the Disney Resort hotel you have booked. You’ll need to contact your travel agent to make any modifications to your reservation, but if you meet the guidelines of the promotion, they should be able to add it for you. You will receive the Disney Dining Promo Card in your email once you check into your Disney Resort hotel.
I love using Disney gift cards when purchasing food around the Walt Disney World Resort, it is so much easier to have one card to pull out of my bag and I can easily keep track of the balance. The Disney Dining Promo Card can be used at quick-service locations, table-service restaurants, and kiosks. I always recommend checking at each location when you arrive to make sure they will accept the gift card. If you’re planning on visiting a table-service restaurant, don’t forget that
advance dining reservations can be made 60 days before your stay! Personally, I’d love to grab a few snacks like a DOLE Whip from Aloha Isle and some corn dog nuggets from Casey’s Corner then grab a seat overlooking Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom Park!
Since you’re planning your visit for the fall, you may be visiting in time for the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival! Be sure to watch the
Disney Parks Blog for any updates regarding festival dates, Foodie Guides, and details about the Eat to the Beat Concert Series. I also suggest checking the Disney Parks Blog for any information about
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party which usually begins in early fall!
I hope this answer was helpful Sian! There are so many fun things happening in the fall at Walt Disney World Resort, it is a great time of year to visit. If you have any more questions, visit us again at planDisney!
