Adding DDP when you arrive

[mattcrimson]

I am booking a room only reservation. Can I add DDP when i get to my resort. I know i would need to purchase tickets as well. But can it be done?

unfortunately not -

even DVC members must add it before arrival!

good luck! there are lots of threads discussing if its "worth it" - but after reading how others use it, and using it - dh prefers to have it "paid in advance" as well as the adr's planned out!

No I am sorry. You need to purchase a MYW pkg plus dining no later than 72 hrs prior to arrival time

There's no way to add DDP to a room-only reservation. That reservation would have to be rebooked as a package. Unless you are a DVC member or annual passholder, you'd also have to add at least a one-day base theme park ticket for each person on the reservation. Changes to packages cannot be made less than 72 hours prior to arrival, so you'd need to have DDP added before then. If you add DDP 45 days or less from arrival, you'd have to pay for the DDP at the time you add it.

You can't add DDP if your already in the resort, you can add it before you check in or 72 hrs in advance.

Well i can get a discounted room only reservation (50% off) so if i add DDP before I arrive would I lose my discounted room.

That's an insane discount! How'd you get that? Pin? And where are you staying?

Yes b/c you would have to rebook as a package, not a room only.

Correct - the discount must be applicable for a package, so if the discount works solely with a room-only reservation, you will not be able to book both the discounted room and the dining plan.

As mentioned, it is not possible to add DDP when you arrive, even to a package reservation.
