Dining Plan Credits - Kids vs. Adults

[KBarber]

I recently read that when on the Dining Plan, Disney does not separate children meals from adults meals. If there are 4 in your party for 6 nights you would have 26 TS; 26 CS; and 26 snacks. So if, 2 adults order and 2 children order 4 TS would be used. However, if I paid out of pocket for the 2 children meals, I would only use 2 TS and still have 2 TS credits. Does anyone know anything about this?

If that is the case, you would save even more money if you paid out of pocket for the cheaper children meals and use the Dining Plan at the "more expensive" places. Or use your credits for dinners vs. breakfast which is typically cheaper.

Hi Kim, you have that entirely right.

However some people here feel strongly that this is some how a loop hole that people should not take advantage of. So prepare to get yelled at by people who think it is their job to be the moral watchdogs on this board.

Thanks Haley! I will be prepared. It will not be the first time I have gotten "yelled" at on this board.

Actually, if there are 4 of you for 6 nights, you only have 24 snacks, 24 TS and 24 CS to share, not 26 of each. Other than that, you're good.
