Hi Kimberly!
What a great question! I'm so glad you asked it.
You absolutely can still take advantage of the wonderful special offer savings often offered by Walt Disney World while still keeping the dining plan that
you want!
Here's how. Confirm your reservation under the
Special Offer online or by telephone with a Walt Disney World Cast Member. After confirming availability for the resort & time period that you want, simply 'upgrade' your choice of dining plan online - or call in to Vacation Package Booking and speak to a Cast Member at (407) 939-7675. Advise the Cast Member that you have the 'such & such' offer but would prefer to pay the difference to upgrade to 'Plus' or 'Deluxe' dining as you wish.
This way, you take full advantage of the saving offered to you by Disney, but get to enjoy ALL the great benefits & bonuses of the
Dining Plan that best suits your family's needs & wishes! You will
ONLY pay the difference in price between the plan that you were receiving as a 'Free' part of your special offer package and the
actual pricing of the plan you choose to use.
I've done precisely this
MANY times myself over the years. We enjoy our Disney Dining so much that we can't settle for less than the Deluxe Plan at this point in time! Too many favourite restaurants that we just can't miss!
Wishing you a Magical time as you plan for that perfect, Walt Disney World vacation for your family Kimberly!
