another dining plan question?

[go cat]

I'm trying to book for 2006. Can you book the dining plan and tickets separate from accomodation? I've tried looking on the Disney USA site - no luck. The UK site seems to show the same situation. I know I can book it through Virgin Hols with accomodation but they are charigng more money.
Has anyone managed to book the dining plan?, we plan to stay on site but looking for best deals.
Thanks

I'm afraid you have to book your dining plan with your accomodation. Like you, I looked at Virgin, but at £27 a head I thought that this was a bit of a rip-off. One of the reasons I chose British Airways holidays this year ( I normally book Virgin). BA Hols charge £22 a head. Other companies such as First Choice, I believe charge £20 a head.

Yes I booked through First Choice, £20 per adult per day and £6 per child per day. The operator we spoke to didn't know anything about it and it took several phone calls over 2 days to get it sorted. It also meant we had to book the park tickets through them which were about £100 more than we could have got online, but we'll save on the food in the long run.

I've just booked with Virgin to stay at the BC next year and there was no information about the dining plan. Does anyone know where to find out about it and if I can now add it on? Any replies would be appreciated.

You need to ask Virgin directly. You should be able to add it on (if you're staying on site) and Virgin shouldn't charge for admin (usually £25) because you're increasing your holiday.
