Do credits carry over mutiple days?

[Nom]

We are considering DDDP for a long weekend trip in April. My question is this: do credits carry over multiple days? What I mean is, we arrive on thursday around 11 am, and if I understand correctly, we have 3 meals and 2 snacks that day. I can't imagine that we would use all of that in 1/2 day, so would one of those meal credits carry over, so we could use it perhaps for breakfast on our final day?

This dining plan stuff is all new to me, so I am still learning!

Thanks in advance for your opinion!

Yes they carry for you length of stay and have to be used by the end of your check out day or you loose them.

As the PP said they do not expire until midnight of your checkout day.

They carryover, and you don't have to use 1 of each, each day.

From what I understand, you get 1 snack, 1 table service and 1 counter service meal each day (counted as each night of your stay.)

But, you can organize it anyway you want. Say you have 2 days of DDP.

You could do:
Day 1 - Snack, TS, CS
Day 2 - Snack, TS, CS
or
Day 1 - TS, CS, TS
Day 1 - Snack, CS, Snack
etc.

Try checking out allearsnet.com They have a really good explanation of the Dining plan. That's what finally convinced me to buy in.

We won't be arriving until evening on our first day, so we probably won't be using any of our credits that day at all. After 5 days we will be switching to the Dolphin and won't be able to use the dining plan there.

But, we will be using up any leftover credits on our "switching" day, and using up any leftover snack and any counter-service credits to get meals "to go". Since that will be an off day, (no major parks, but maybe Typhoon Lagoon if we get lucky and it's really warm!) we will get our food at Downtown Disney, the Boardwalk, or at a resort. We've never gotten the dining plan, but it seems that more people have trouble using up unneeded credits, than running out of credits and still being hungry!

Hopefully, we'll have a good bit of food for our stay at the Dolphin!

Yes it is unbelievable how full you are from the 1 CS & 1 TS a day that you don't even think of a snack credit you are so full. But you could use them towards a soda or water if you want to make sure you use them,we like to use them for a dole whip or something in a bakery or even at the wine fest this year.
