Hello Erica! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
One of the aspects of the Disney Dining Plan that I enjoy most is the flexibility to choose where and when I redeem my credits for meals. When I first used the Disney Dining Plan, I planned extensively when and where I would use my credits to ensure that I got the most value per credit.
Erica, when using the 2017 Quick-Service Disney Dining Plan,
you can also choose when and where you would like to redeem your credits. You are given a total amount of credits based on the length of your stay to use at any of the 2017 Quick-Service Disney Dining Plan participating locations. This means that you can use all of your credits on one day or spread them throughout your Walt Disney World Resort vacation accordingly.
If you were to decide to make
Advanced Dining Reservations for a Table-Service meal for an evening, for instance, you would not be able to redeem any of 2017 Quick-Service Disney Dining Plan credits for the meal (as they are not Quick-Service), but you would still maintain those Quick-Service credits to use for another meal at a different time. This is my favorite way to take advantage of the value and accessibility of the 2017 Quick-Service Disney Dining Plan, while also enjoying a sit-down Table Service experience once in a while.
Remember to
capture all of your magical memories with Memory Maker and taking advantage of Disney's Photopass Service at Walt Disney World Resort.
Bon Appétit!
