Hi all! We have visited WDW many times and done the regular dining plan once.
We have decided to purchase the annual pass for our October trip as we have a May 2019 trip planned also.
Thought I had it all figured out.....we are staying offsite and I could only get our condo for Sunday check in (I wanted Saturday to Saturday). So I started thinking, maybe we will go ahead and book Saturday night in property. Give us a chance to get in early, relax at the pool, have dinner etc (plus adding a day is always good right)?!?!?!
Well, of course that led to thinking of doing the deluxe dining plan for that one night. If I understand it correctly you each get three meals and two snacks on the deluxe. Then we have until midnight the day of check out to use them.
My thoughts are use a credit for a nice dinner at our resort that evening. Use a snack credit for a pastry or something for breakfast. Spend some time hanging at the pool for a bit. Check out. We could do lunch at downtown Disney and then go check into the condo. Then dinner at a resort or in park and catch one of the fireworks/night time shows that day.
My questions are - on the deluxe dining plan - can all three meals be table service?
To do the package I have to add two day base tickets - can I purchase the package and then call and change them to annual passes before my trip or would I have to wait and do that there? Or if I change to annual passes will it drop the package with dining?
Is there any other way to make that work?
