Help Please

Thanks in advance.

Here is what is going on:
My son received the free dining pin (Yippee) so we are going to Disney the first week of Dec.

He will be with us on vacation, of course.

Here is my questions

1. Does he have to put the trip on his card?
2. I wanted to purchase Disney Gift Cards to pay for the trip, taking advantage of buying them from Target and get the 5percent discount.
3. Is there something he needs to do?

I don't really understand what you're asking. 1. What card? 2. Ok. I think you can use the cards to pay for just about anything. 3. ?? Do for what? So confused.

He definitely has to be the person to make the reservation if you want to use GCs even for the deposit you can that too. They may not let him use someone elses CC but it never hurts to ask when he calls to make the reservation. Nothing extra to do just give them the code and make the reservation.

sorry I was confusing, We are all going with my son, and he could book 3 rooms, we of course do not expect him to pay our expenses, but will have the benefit from the free dining.

So does he have to put everything on his card, or can we pay for part of the rooms on someone else's credit card. The other alternative is buy at Target the Disney Gift Cards and if we pay for them on our Target Debit card, we will get 5 percent off the gift cards.

There is free dining for all until December 23, I believe. So really you don't need the PIN code from your son, you can book it on your own. I would for sure check out the disney world site to make sure the free dining for all is still in effect. Hopefully that will be easier for your planning.

I see. Typically when I've made a reservation online I've paid part of it upfront and the rest at a later date where I had the option to use a different card. So I don't see why you couldn't pay using multiple credit cards. But I would just call Disney to be sure. Have fun!
