Free dining question

[Lovin' Disney]

Hello,

I have a question. We will be going to WDW sometime in August 2011. We will probably arrive before free dining starts and still be there when free dining starts. Do we have to book 2 separate reservations to get the free dining, or if we have it for the last part of our stay, does it qualify for the first part of our stay as well? Thanks!

Free dining will begin on a specific date. If you arrive before that date your ressie will not qualify for free dining. You must arrive on or after the starting date to get free dining. If you split your ressie you can get free dining for the second part of your stay as long as the second ressie begins on or after free dining starts.

That's what I thought. Maybe we'll arrive earlier, stay off site for a few days, then go stay at WDW. Thanks!
