Hi Ayondria!
Welcome to planDisney! My fellow panelists and I are eager to help guests like you make the most out of their Disney vacations. I am glad that I can help answer your question about Disney dining options and groups!
Prior to 2020, the Walt Disney World resort offered a variety of
Disney Dining Plans to Guests staying at one of the
Disney Resort Collection hotels. These dining plans comprised of a mix of dining options, from deluxe to quick service to snack offerings. Unfortunately, Disney Dining Plans are not available for purchase at this time. This includes both individual and group reservations. You can still reserve dining locations for a larger group, however, the cost will be a la carte. For a larger group visiting the Walt Disney World resort, the best means of making a dining reservation is by contacting
Disney Guest Services, either by phone or using the (very convenient) chat feature. They will be able to work with you on what may be available, recommend areas that can accommodate your party, and ensure you are connected to the right Cast Member to help you along. Reservations can be made 60 days before your selected date. If staying at a Disney Resort Collection hotel, you are able to make dining reservations for the duration of your stay.
Disney Dining Planning Tip:
Disney Dining reservations typically open at 6 am. For hard to get dining reservations, be sure to log into either your profile on the Walt Disney World website or your My Disney Experience App so you are ready to book once the time comes around.
Hope this helps you plan your magical vacation!
