DDP for 1 night stay w/o package?

[mickeymom629]

We have reservations in early December for 1 night at ASM before checking in to OKW (DVC) for 7 nights. We already have our tickets from UT.

Can you only get the dining plan if you buy a package (hotel/tickets/dining)? I wasn't sure if we would be able to buy the quick-service dining plan for one night.

If you call, they should be able to change it to a ticketless package to include the dining plan for that one night.

Dining Plan can be bought and added to any onsite room reservation.

I think the confusion comes from Free Dining, where typically to qualify you’d need to buy tickets as well.

You have to call. Why not do the table service one? Then make sure it’s your most expensive meal possible such as a character meal or something. You also get both days to use all the credits.

Is it confusing to do a dining plan for 1 night if checking into another resort with dining plan the next day?

Thinking about adding 1 night with QS (Wednesday) before my current check-in day (Thursday) so that I can go to the water park on my check in day at 2nd resort (Thurs). I currently have the TS dining with 2nd reservation. I won’t arrive Wednesday night until around 9 so I would only use my QS for water park and either breakfast that morning or QS at 2nd resort that night (Thursday). If I use the QS credits for water park and dinner at 2nd resort will that be too confusing and mess up my QS credits for my TS dining plan at 2nd resort?

I’ve done this often… one night ressie with DP before moving to longer resort ressie. Never an issue using credits through the second day. Don’t forget the refillable mug is good for length of stay! It’s really a great deal

This was the only reason my group would have done this, lol. OP, here. We decided not to do the 1 night dining plan but it is a tough decision. OKW is not the best resort to use the refillable mug (as compared to a resort with a lobby near the room). We all usually try to be economical so it still seemed like a lot of money to dish out, but I guess we'll see what we actually spend on the 24 hours of food that we would have used it for. We still have time to change our minds...

Do you know if the above information is correct - about a 1 night ticketless package and adding dining plan? I just called and tried to do a ticketless package with dining for 1 night before my original reservation starts to get the water park the next morning and they stated that I had to buy a package with 2 day tickets to get the dining plan for the 1 night reservation.

called back and can only get the dining plan with a 2 night ticketless package or 1 night with 2 day tickets.

That seems strange. I don't have a package of any sort. I have one night booked at ASMu and was told that we could do the one night dining plan (quick service is the one I wanted) for our stay. She said I could add it anytime before checking in. We bought tickets separately.
Maybe say that you just want to add the dining plan and don't call it a package?

I wonder if this is a change for 2026 reservations. I called today for 1 night at movies and wanted to add QS asked for ticketless package because I am wanting to go to the water park the next day after checking in early for 7 days at FQ. Had 2 cast members both tell me no. The first one put me on hold and came back stating that I had to add tickets to get dining. The 2nd one stated that either I had to book 2 nights to add dining ticketless or 1 night 2 day tickets
