DDP multiple questions

[pfeifferdcat]

Hi Everyone, I am taking a trip to WDW with Dh & 2 kids (5&8) in Nov. I have multiple questions. We got the free table service dining. We will be there 7 nights. So I think we get 7 table service, 7 quick service & 7 snacks/per person.

1. Are the meals on the key card for our room? or is it a separate card? or on the theme park tickets?

2. We will be there half day on Thanksgiving, is there a list of restaurants that will be serving a Thanksgiving meal around noon?

3. It seems like from what I've read that the QS meals are lumped together & not child vs adult?

4. I know at 1 time we can only get 2 adult meals & 2 kid meals (thinking more about quick serv & snacks), but is there a time limit? Can we get our 4 snacks at 1 place & walk over to another place & get 4 more as long as we still have them available?

5. are the CM at the food places generally knowledgeable & helpful with the DDP & all the dumb questions, I'm sure I'll have?

6. Are the food places marked somehow, so I know what I am getting or am I going to have to walk around with a list to see where & what we can eat.

Thanks in advance, I'm sure I'll have more questions as these get answered!

On your room key. If you have booked a package, your park tickets will also be on your room key.

We will be there half day on Thanksgiving, is there a list of restaurants that will be serving a Thanksgiving meal around noon?

I think you'll need to wait until the Thanksgiving special dining stuff is released to know who will be serving a Thanksgiving lunch and when.

It seems like from what I've read that the QS meals are lumped together & not child vs adult?

Even at CS, children must order from the child's menu if there is one. You won't get a receipt that shows them separated though.

I know at 1 time we can only get 2 adult meals & 2 kid meals (thinking more about quick serv & snacks), but is there a time limit? Can we get our 4 snacks at 1 place & walk over to another place & get 4 more as long as we still have them available?

You can get snacks anywhere, anytime.

are the CM at the food places generally knowledgeable & helpful with the DDP & all the dumb questions, I'm sure I'll have?

Most are. But not all.

Are the food places marked somehow, so I know what I am getting or am I going to have to walk around with a list to see where & what we can eat.

When you check in, you will be given a brochure with the restaurant lists. The restaurants themselves will not have anything like signs out front that say "This restaurant accepts the Disney Dining Plan." To make it easy, all restaurants in the parks accept the plan except Bistro de Paris at Epcot. All restaurants in Disney-operated resorts accept the plan except Victoria & Alberts and the Garden View Tea Room at GF. If you go to Downtown Disney you will want to check that list, because there are a number of restaurants there that do not accept the plan. The only thing you'll find marked on menus are snacks.
