Help! Thoroughly confused!

[flyball]

We would love to take advantage of the free dining option. I have an AP that will be good for the dates we're considering (8/13 through 8/?). Does anybody have any ideas on the most economical way to book the room? It would be me (already have pass), 2 DDs (15 and 13), and possibly my sis. Should I book the package for 3 and then add another adult to the room? I know that when you book a package you usually have to book for everyone in the room. And how would that work for dining? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
TIA!

In order to get the free dining, everyone in the room must be on the same package, i.e. same number of nights, same tickets, etc.

At the minimum you must book at least a 1-day base ticket for each one in your party. You can always upgrade the tickets at your resort when you arrive.

When you check in, you could ask to have your 1 day base ticket separated from the room key and save it to use later or apply it's value towards the renewal of your AP. If you're not sure about your SIS going yet, you could book it with 3 and add her later. She will still need to purchase at least the 1 day ticket and if you wait to long you could have to pay a fee for making the change. I'm not sure how that works. It would be better to decide who's going before you book.
