I'm not qualified to define "transferred" in this context. I think the brochure is an unedited draft that should never have been released. But we'll see what happens.
I think it would be strange for Disney to allow redeeming credits for people who aren't on your plan after they converted all soda machines to RFID. The consensus seems to be that Coke gives them syrup for free, yet they had to implement a system to prevent soda theft, but now they're going to allow people to redeem credits for other people which will cut into the dining plan's margin. That just doesn't seem reasonable to me.
I agree it doesn't seem reasonable. One of the biggest gripes with the dining plan that I've seen complained about the most is the lack of flexibility. If they do allow meal credits to be used as the way some are suggesting, perhaps Disney is trying to sell it as the 'most flexible dining plan yet', trying to get more people to buy into it. Obviously, I have no idea, I'm just throwing this out there. Further, perhaps Disney is thinking that so few actually dine in a way for people to take advantage of it that it will have negligible effect.
I understand those who get 2 rooms for in-laws and perhaps taking advantage of it but you'd have to dine together each and every meal that you want to do that for.
Finally, is it really worth it to get 2 rooms just to 'profit' from this loophole? I don't think so, or not in my case anyway. For my family of 5 (2 of which are children prices) it would cost me an add'l $1,200+ for a second room at POR (not interested in values), it would then cost me another $1,354 for the DxDP for 1A, 2C. Whereas staying in 1 room, the
DDP for all of us would only be $1,763. I'm not sure Disney really would have a problem with it.
Obviously, this is just my situation, perhaps others will have a more favourable outcome in which it pays off for them to do it (if it is indeed allowed).
