Can I use extra Adults T.S credits for an Adults meal for a child.

[Caltha]

We are on dining plan 4 adults and 1 child. But I am not a very big eater and may often share with my 14 D.D if we are both not very hungry or sizes too big for us both, too much food. That would leave us some extra T.S credits, and my DD9 isn't always going to be satisfied with childs Menu. So, I thought she could use some of my T.S for herself if she wants a Adults Meal once or twice. How do the C.S know that we are using Adult T.S for her and not just trying to pull the wool over their eyes?? How do we do this or can't I??

The rules prohibit using child meal entitlements for adult meals -- there is no rule against using adult meal entitlements for child meals, or for adult meals for children. However, if your card says 4A1C you may be precluded from ordering five adult meals.

How do the C.S know...

In cases like that, Disney relies on the integrity of their guests to comply with the rules.

According to recent trip reports most, if not all TS restaurants are holding DDP patrons to only be able to order meals equalling the totals listed on your card. A couple of people have posted exceptions, but I would not count on it. As for CS if both you and your husband get in line and each order using a different card, you will be able to provide your daughter with an adult CS. This has also been reported on many trip reports. No trip report has stated that Disney, the provider of the plan, has questioned any guests integrity that chooses to do this.

That's correct. It's the honor system, just like back at University, when you got "take home" exams. Disney doesn't question guests about their integrity -- they simply rely on it.

If you explain what your are trying to do to the CM, I'm sure it would not be a problem.

It looks like this is one of those cases where if the DDP information, found here

To stop the guessing and possible backlash, I will lock this thread now.
