Deluxe Dining Plan question

[tosha27]

Someone please help me - I am lost in confusion sea, and I am sorry - this has been asked 100 times probably, but the search feature is not great at finding what you are looking for.

Ok: from the dining thread (I want to be sure I am reading this right)
Deluxe Dining Plan (Non-Peak)
$85.52 per night ages 10 and up
$23.79 per night ages 3 to 9

Deluxe Dining Plan (Peak Season)
$89.52 per night ages 10 and up
$25.79 per night ages 3 to 9

3 meal credits (TS or QS), 2 snacks per night per guest, plus refillable mug

Question 1: Does this mean I can use all 3 meals for character dining every single day if I wanted to? (I know crt takes 2) I want to make absolutely sure, because this is the only way the deluxe dining plan would be worth it for me. Question 2: I have seen conflicting info on Rainforest in DTD being part of the dining plan. Is it? Question 4: Just to be sure. If I have 2 adults and 2 children going for 3 nights, we each get 9 meal credits? Y'all I am so confused at this point, really. This just looks too straightforward to be true. Get me confused and I will agree to anything. LOL

1. You can use all 3 daily credits for character meals, if you wish.

2. For 2 adults and 2 children, ages 3-9, you would each get 3 meal credits per night, so 9 credits for each of you, 9X4 = 36 total credits.

And, just in case you are wondering, you can use all your meal credits in one day or spread them out. You do not have to use 3 credits per person, per day, you just have to use them between check-in day and check-out day (inclusive). For example, on one of our days, we had lunch at CRT and dinner at CG. We used 4 meal credits per person on that day. We only used 2 credits the following day (one for breakfast and one for dinner), so it all worked out.

It's a lot of food. When we had the DxDDP we did a lot of 2 credit sigs. You might want to consider CRT or the 2 credit dinner shows.

Question 2: I have seen conflicting info on Rainforest in DTD being part of the dining plan. Is it? Yes, it was just added to the dining plan this year both DDP and Deluxe DDP.

Question 4: Just to be sure. If I have 2 adults and 2 children going for 3 nights, we each get 9 meal credits? Yes. On the DxDDP you will get 3 meal credits per night of stay for each person. They can be used for TS or QS.

Y'all I am so confused at this point, really. You're doing great! This just looks too straightforward to be true. Get me confused and I will agree to anything. LOL

My answers in black.

You can use your credits anyway you want, all character meals if thats what you want, Yes you each get 9 for the week, I don't know about Rainforest
It was confusing for me the first time too

You can use ALL your meal credits for character meals if you want to. Of course, if you do you are likely to be spending more time in the restaurants than in the parks, make sure that's the kind of vacation you are looking to have.

Yes, Rainforest Cafe (both locations) is now on the dining plan.

As already stated, you have a pretty good grasp on the DxDP!

It IS alot of food, but if you like to sit down for your meals, enjoy a scheduled break in your days, and want an appetizer with your meal, this is the plan for you!

There are obviously better values- like Akerhaus that comes with a picture package- but we really enjoy the idea of prepaying for all of our food most!
