Can you get the DDP with a room code? Only with a package??

[bcarson]

I think I know the answer here but thought I had read some had done it? I had no idea until today that you can't buy DDP seperate? I was hoping to buy it all seperately. Is it better to go with the pacakage if you want DDP?
Thanks What about the 45 days out to. I have the room for now and figured I would wait for a code and decide later. Can you add DDP and tickets after the 45 days??? Thanks.

I have the same question.

Depends on the code. I had a couple codes where it could be added, but it becomes a package and at least one park tkt must be included - all guests in the room must have the same components - i.e. one day park tkt and however many days wanted and all the same DDP.

If you definitely want the DDP then it's probably best to book a pkg and hope a code comes out that can be applied.

If you book within 45 days, think the pkg must be paid for at the time of booking.

Maybe the easiest way to get all your questions answered correctly would be to contact a Disney TA Specialist Then you will know for sure and not what any of us think may be correct.

You can only purchase the DDP as part of a package, which means room, dining plan for each person for each day, and a one-day (at least) base ticket per person,.

If you have a room only reservation, you cannot buy the dining plan without changing the reservation to a package, which means giving up any room only code you might be using. (I have read about Disney Vacation Club members staying at DVC properties using points and buying DDP, as I believe they can by the DDP without a package. But don't quote me on that ... I'm sure there are rules. That may be what you read, too.)

There have been codes that apply to packages, so that is a possibility. I'm not totally confident about the rules for changes/upgrades after the 45 day mark if you already have something booked. Check with a TA on that one.

Yes, DVC members are allowed to purchase the DDP with their points reservations. We don't have to have park tickets as part of our reservation, many DVC members have AP's. It's a nice perk for us, and our family has used it a few times.
