Mixing ROOM ONLY with a Package

[Catrin]

Hello,

I have decided to try something a bit different for our upcoming 5 night stay in February.
We will not be arriving until after 7pm the first night .... then we have a 1pm flight home our last day.

So, with the Disney Visa Discount, I booked 1 Night Room Only, 3 Nights Package with Dining and 4 Day ticket, and then 1 Night Room Only. Doing it this way (instead of 5 nights package) saved almost $300. Yes, we will have to buy some food out of pocket - but we will save in the tips that we would hve given for the Full Service meals, too.

A few questions ....

1) At Checkin - When will I be able to get my park tickets? Is it after midnight on the day my package starts?

2) Same with the re-usable mug that comes with the dining plan?

3) Will I be in the same room? I made sure I booked the same category for all three reservations.

4) Dining Plan - If I understand correctly, a 3 Night dining plan is good for 4 days? (including the day you check out?) This is important, as I booked dinner in Norway for our fourth day in the parks.

My husband thinks I am nuts for making this "so complicated". But, I want to make sure I made this trip economical so I can go again next year!

Thanks as always,
Catrin
