Hey howdy hey, Gayla, and welcome to planDisney! Your vacation to the Most Magical Place on Earth will be here in just a few short weeks - you must be getting so excited! I'm so glad you've stopped by today with this great question.
Gayla, it sounds like this isn't your first rodeo, and that you're already familiar with
dining plans at
Walt Disney World Resort. I recently experienced the new
Disney Dining Plan during my vacation, and I was thrilled with the value and how it made many of the transactions feel seamless. Whether you're using the
Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan or the Disney Dining Plan, you can't go wrong!
You might recall some flexibility in transferring meals and snacks in the past, but that is no longer an option. Happily, there are hundreds of dining locations where you can use your meals and snacks throughout the Disney Theme Parks, Disney Resorts Collection hotels, and
Disney Springs - the only problem is choosing where to go! I love booking an
Advance Dining Reservation for each day that I visit a Disney Theme Park - this gives me a set time to relax and recharge so that I can finish the day strong. And, in the Florida summer heat, an hour or two inside of a cool restaurant is a welcome respite!
Gayla, if you'd like any recommendations on where to find amazing snacks, meals, and beverages, you have a friend in me! My Panelist pals and I are always here and happy to help fellow guests like you plan a rootin'-tootin' vacation full of fun and great food! Don't forget to use your
My Disney Experience Mobile App to place a
Mobile Food & Beverage Order in advance, so that you can avoid long waits when picking up your food!
So long, partner!
Jennifer
