Hi Amy, a warm welcome to planDisney today! Let’s dive into your questions to get you started on planning your magical adventure for February 2025.
First, to housekeeping services at Disney Resorts hotels - Guests are not offered Disney Gift Cards for declining housekeeping. While you can still
opt out of housekeeping, there’s currently no incentive to do so. If you decline, Cast Members will still perform a daily room check to ensure everything is in order.
Onto the
Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan, which it sounds like you’ve already booked. The great thing about this Plan is that meals and snacks can be redeemed at any time during your stay. Unused meals and snacks roll over each day and expire at midnight on your checkout date. This means you can enjoy two snacks a day on the Plan and supplement additional snacks with your own money. Alternatively, you could get your Disney detective hat on, and use your snack credits for the more pricey and exotic snacks, and fund the others out of pocket.
As an example, use your Dining Plan to experience the delightful Brownie Sundae from the
Plaza Ice Cream Parlor in Magic Kingdom Park, and pay for the Pineapple DOLE Whip® Cup from
Aloha Isle. Both are iconic Disney snacks, but the latter is more affordable out of pocket. I can assure you, we have never felt short on food when using the Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan and you may find that snacks are often shareable.
I hope this information helps! Please feel free to reach out again if you have further questions or need more assistance. Enjoy planning your enchanting break!
Magic always,
Louise
