Can I add tix & dining to a room-only reservation?

[keishashadow]

Call and ask. For our F&W vacation in Nov.I always book room only with my AP discount. Then I call about a week or so before and add dining. They tell me it is now a package and I have to pay in full. But that said. APs don't have to buy park passes if they want the DDP you may have to if you don't have an AP.

hmmm, didn't know this, thanx Seems to be a great way to avoid having to pay in full earlier for a package.

Did those of you able to do this get new package reservation numbers or did you keep your room only reservation number?
I wonder if Disney has changed this from earlier this year, or if the CM I got on the phone didn't know as much as some of the CMs other posters have gotten. When I changed a room only to a package to add dinning in May 2012, I had to put a new $200 deposit down on the package and wait for my refund on the room only to be deposited into my account from my now cancelled room only reservation. My reservation number also changed from the all number room only to the mixed letter/number of a package. I did keep my bounceback room discount on the new package.
Just curious, if OP was able to do this as well.

this is how it's been for me in the past
