Hello Nancy and welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel where it's my absolute pleasure to assist you in planning towards a visit to Walt Disney World Resort with your friends that is practically perfect in every way.
Meeting friends and loved ones whilst on vacation is always a delight and for me, gathering around a dinner table to eat together is the very best way possible to enjoy their company!
With over
100 delicious Disney dining locations for you and your friends to choose from you're going to be spoilt for choice deciding on a restaurant in which to dine.
I believe you may be enquiring about using
Entitlements or
Credits from your chosen
Disney Dining Plan which are allotted to each Guest on your room reservation upon arrival to Walt Disney World Resort. Although Guests may not share Disney Dining Plan entitlements with other Guests not on their reservation they may most certainly dine all-together at the same table with diners who are paying-out-of-pocket; my top tip is to let the Cast Member serving you know how you'll be dividing the check.
For your added information I thought you may find these
Disney Dining Plan ~ Frequently Asked Questions to be a useful planning resource for your upcoming trip.
Wishing you an extra pixie dusted day with your friends at Walt Disney World Resort.
~ Jane
