Add dining plan?

[babybunrab]

This is likely a stupid question, but I couldn't find the answer when I did a thread search, so here it goes.

Does anyone know if it is possible to add a dining plan to a room only reservation? (I have AP so I don't need a ticket and I already have one for DS).

 

[Cheshire Figment]

No, it is not possible. You must have a package which includes payment of the room at rack rate (except AAA Discount) and tickets for all people on the reservation.

That's what I figured. Thanks for such a quick answer!

But... you can pay rake rate for your room, buy each of you 1 day base tickets and add the free dining if you are going when there is availability. Then just hold on to the tickets to use when you renew your APs etc. That is what a lot of people are doing, myself included. Great deal!
