Dining Plan-Quick Question

[ajwolfe]

Okay, we are so going back and forth on whether we want to do the dining plan. Here's some background info: My dh and I are both in our twenties and we will have 2 yr old ds with us. We love to try new things, but are not always big eaters on vacations...The Dining plan looks good to us for a variety of reasons, but dh has was wondering this and I thought I had read this somewhere:
If you decided to not do a TS one day, can you use it for 2 cs meals?

I know this would not necessarily be cost effective, but he was curious...Thanks!

From what I've read you can exchange 1 TS for 1 CS.

Hmmm, that would defintely not be a good deal....

Anybody, have an idea where I could find this info???

I have heard you can share. So if you're not big eater's maybe sharing is a consideration. Might just have to pay for an extra beverages.

Good Luck

Ok, let's see if I can help you here - english is my second language so if I understood the question wrong, forgive me!

You do NOT have to use 1 snack, 1 CS credit and 1 TS credit each day. So, for instance, say you are staying for 5 nights - you would have 5 snacks, 5 CS credits, and 5 TS credits per person for your trip. If you want to use 2 CS credits today and use 2 TS credits tomorrow, that is completely fine.

You can use your credits in any order you want, it doesn't matter. Or as a previous poster suggested, you could share CS meals or TS meals with your husband giving you more meal credits.

Hope this helps!

The plan gives you one CS, one TS and one snack credit per day. You can't trade in one TS credit for 2 CS meals. If you could it would be listed in the brochure.

A few people posted being allowed to use (waste?) a TS credit for a CS meal. Basically the last day of their trip, only a TS credit was left and they only had time for a CS meal in their food court.

If you prefer to skip TS meals in favor of CS meals the plan isn't for you unless you're going to use your TS credits for 2 credits meals for half the time.

What might be a better value for you is to use one of your TS meals for a character breakfast or character lunch. You can trade one TS for a character meal....

Thank you for providing info. I completely understand the program, just that I had read this somewhere and was trying to verify. I thought it was probably incorrect info and now I am positive that it is.
