Dining Plan Questions

[WDWorBUST]

We have AP's so I know we won't be able to use the dining plan. However....my mom and dad may join us for 3 or 4 nights during our trip. If they do the dining plan for 3 nights they will have 6 table service, 6 counter service, and 6 snacks - correct? Is there anything that says the 4 of us cannot go to dinner together and my mom and dad use 4 options for the 4 adults?? Our DD will be 2 so she's still free and I always share with her. Even though we arent' on the plan they are - and they can use 2 at once per person for signature restaurants. Can this be done? Does anyone know?

Thanks!
Amanda

Thanks!! I guess it's just too early for specifics like that I am asking for. I just know that my parents won't want all that but if we can share with them it would be worth it for them to do the dining plan.

Thanks Again!!
