Another DDP and Split stay ?

[trasor]

Checking in late Saturday and checking out the following Sat. I want to go to Sea World on Tues. With that in mind...will this scenario work?

I don't need the DP on Sat. because we're checking in late. I want it for Sun. and Mon. If I get the DDP for Sat and Sun, my credits would be good through Mon. night, right? This would alleviate checking in Sat night and again Sun. morning.

Last I read people's key cards were working even after meals expired so I'm hoping that I wouldn't need to get a new card till Wed when I would do DDPX to cover my meals for Wed and Thurs. And then hopefully that card will work till check out on Sat. I don't need the meal plan for Fri. or Sat.

So, I would need a ressie for Sat-Mon., Mon-Wed., and Wed-Sat. On paper, (I know possibly not reality) do I have the logistics right?

Have I confused everyone or just myself?

Your credits will be good until midnight on the day you check out. I'm not sure how it works if you have one DVC reservation but use the DDP let's say Mon, Wed, Fri.

I believe DVC can now add the DDP, DxDP, and the QSDP to as many or few days as needed and they days don't have to be consecutive.

Yes, it sounds like you have most of the logistics right. The only piece is if you want it for only Wed and Thursday night, and not Friday, you will have to segment out Friday as well.

For example, it might look like this:

Segment 1 - Sat and Sun night--
Segment 2 - Mon and Tues night
Segment 3 - Weds and Thurs night
Segment 4 - Fri night.

Now, the key card may still work for Friday night because it doesn't have the plan but because it will be its own segment, you may or may not have to get one.

Some have reported needing new cards for each segment and some have said the old cards worked even with the new segments.

Good luck!
