DDP - large party - splitting checks

[kermit116]

Will TS restaurants split checks for large parties (of 6 or more adults)? We'll be traveling with extended family & friends and we won't all be on the DDP. We want to eat some TS meals together, but will the server split the check so those on the DDP can use their dining credits and the rest can pay cash/credit? Normally I would assume yes but I thought I read something about everyone at the table needing to be on the DDP to use credits?

Yes- we were just there in sept with a party of ten all week (3 different reservations, all with DDP), and they split the checks and put the required tip on each check. They take a card from each party and know exactly by swiping how many goes on each. It worked perfectly all 9 days for us- it was nice to not have to figure numbers out- it was all done for us.

Sorry- I read it wrong. We did do that a few years back at 1900 PF, we were on the DP, and 2 were not. They DID split the checks so that we could use our credits and they paid cash. But I can't remember how they did the tip.

Just let your server know who will be paying with dining credits and who is paying out of pocket. If dining credits need to be taken from more than one resort room, just indicate which meals go with each card.

Everyone at the table doesn't need to be on the dining plan. Perhaps you were thinking of everyone in the same hotel room needs to be on the dining plan.

Yes I think that's what I was thinking of - thanks!
