DDP and ME

[hjic15102]

I know about the rule that everyone in your room must get the DDP but what if my wife and I are going to be there for 7 days and my DS and wife are only going to be there the first 4 days then going to Universal and returning on day 7 to ME back to the airport. Can they get a 4 day plan? Are they still going to be able to use ME? What else is wrong with this plan?

As for your dining plan question, you can't get a partial dining plan. Everyone on your reservation must buy the dining plan for the entire length of the stay.

I can try to answer the ME question although the place for that is the transportation board:
All guests using ME must be registered on the reservation (except those under age 3). This could be a problem on a package reservation. If your son and daughter in law do not want to buy the same length of Disney theme park ticket you do, or they do not require theme park tickets, you will either have to buy everyone the same type of ticket or not list them on the reservation. If they are not listed on the reservation, they can't use ME.

One solution is to purchase the shorter length of ticket needed (the ones your son and daughter in law will need) and then upgrade your ticket to a longer one.

If you are not on a package reservation (that would mean you are using DVC points), and you list your son and daughter in law on the reservation to get them on ME, they'd still have to buy the dining plan for the full length of the reservation.

As Nala said everyone on the res will have the dining plan for all 7 nights (or 6 nights if youre staying 7 days) and they have to be on the res to use ME. You can always put 4 day passes on there for everyone and when you arrive upgrade whoever needs longer passes
