Welcome to planDisney, Crystal!
Excellent question! As a self-proclaimed Disney foodie myself, I just love
dining and trying new things while visiting the
Walt Disney World Resort. Now that I think about it, it was actually the
Disney Dining Plan that made my husband fall in love with the Walt Disney World Resort. He loved the idea of planning out our meals before we arrived based on the plan we selected.
Unfortunately, there’s no date as to when Disney Dining Plans will return. If you do enjoy the idea of prepaying for your meals before your visit, I do have a great recommendation for you! You might want to consider purchasing and saving
Disney Gift Cards before you arrive. It’s an easy way to save money for your visit. You can then use those Disney Gift Cards towards your meal purchases. It not only makes planning for your meals easier, but helps when it comes to staying on budget as well. My family even purchases a separate Disney Gift Card to use towards
souvenirs.
Crystal, I do hope this helps answer your question. Thanks again for stopping by and if there’s anything else you need, you know where to find us!
