Dining Plan With Annual Pass

[chirurgeon]

I had heard you can't buy the dining plan if you use an annual pass. Is this true?

The Dining Plan must be purchased as part of a package, which is room and tickets.

With an AP, I've heard that folks buy just a one-day pass and don't use it. They then apply that toward renewal of their AP's.

I have a seasonal pass and just bought the dining plan. I had to buy a 1-day ticket for all of us, but when it's time to renew our passes I can turn in the unused tickets and they will be prorated against new seasonal passes.

So to answer your question - yes you can, but you must still buy at least a 1-day ticket to get the dining plan.

If you have an AP, you can get a DDE card.. Disney Dining Experience. It is good for 20% off your total bill at almost every restaurant. The cost is $50. Doing the math, once you have spend $250, you have paid for it. It is good for a year after purchase.. or 13 months if the timing is right.

here's a link form Deb's site with all the scoop..

I guess you'd have to stay at a WDW resort to do that. We're DVC members and are using points in November. I'm guessing that even if we go a day early and stay at PC, we could only get the dining plan for that one day, not the entire week we're staying - right?

We are DVC members as well and what you posted is my understanding of the plan.

Right, the dining plan is tied to the number of nights of hotel. We didn't need 5 days of dining plan, so I booked a 1 night reservation and then a 4 night reservation w/dining plan.
