HELP!!! AAA room only with separate tickets or MYW with dining

[msim]

Has anyone found that the package with dining helps you come out ahead pricewise? We really love to eat and I'm sure we'd definitely order something moderately expensive at the table service meals. (We always want to, but usually try to order just enough to get by on when we're paying as we go - and never dessert.) We are one adult and four juniors.

I found that the AAA package is significantly less than some travel agencies and or CRO. But I would like to know if you guys think the dining part is a waste of money. Thanks.

not sure what you mean by "juniors"...DP for 2007 is $38.99 adult & $10.99 child (3-9)...no junior price break that I know of...

Not hard to eat (well ) double the $40 you pay each day for food. We've found that we "save" money using the DP. Of course we're happy to eat an early lunch & dinner w/a later snack, always full.

I found the dining plan to be worth it for my gang. We were two adults and five kids ages 5-13 at the time of our trip. While we are not big dessert eaters it was a treat to have it on our vacation, but without the dining plan we would not have had desserts or appetizers and would probably only had a few sit down meals. Part of the appeal of the dining plan for me was having it taken care of ahead of time and that made dinner much more relaxing to me because I was not worried about how much the bill was going to be. That in itself was worth its weight in gold. The older kids loved being able to order their own lunches and snacks as well. Between the value of the dining plan and the AAA discount it was a good savings.
