How change of plans affects reservations?

[BigDis]

We are heading to Disney World in December and have reservations at Pop Century along with Disney Dining Plan and numerous ADR's including 8:05 breakfast reservations at Crystal Palace and Cinderella's Castle. We are considering cancelling our Pop Century reservations to save money by staying off site at a much cheaper per night rate. I know we have to cancel the Disney Dining Plan if we do cancel our Pop Century reservations. Does this affect our ADR's? We really want to do the 2 breakfast's at Magic Kingdom. Can you still get into the park early for these breakfasts if you are not staying at a Dinsey Resort?

Thanks for any information you can provide.

It should not, but double (and triple) check with the CM about that when you cancel. Then I would immediately call Disney Dining just to confirm all your existing ADRs.

Also, when you made your ADRs, did you use your reservation number or a phone number? That could make a difference too, but I still don't think they will cancel.

Thanks for the information. I will have to check my reservations. We made them so long ago to meet the 180 days deadline for Cinderella's Castle that I can't remember if I used my phone number or my reservation number for the ADR's.

Anyone else able to weigh in on this?

Yea, always use your phone number . Although WDW is pretty good about matching them up IMO its still better to have dining separate then hotel reservations..
