How long do I have

[Butler_chic07]

Can anybody tell me how long I have to add DDP on my vacation package? We aren't going until June, but as of now I don't know if I want to add it or not. I just would like to know how quickly I have to decide! Thanks!

I have read, but am not sure that it needs to be added 5 days before you go at the latest. I have also read of osme epole able to add it on on day 4, but I'd say 5 to be safe.

I'm sure someone with more knowledge wil come along and give you a better answer.

I would be more worried about being able to make ADR's at the last minute....during that time of the year, they book fast.

So, just take that into consideration - if you wait until a week before you leave, then you're making last minute ADR's - and they may be pretty full.....

Can't you make ADR's and add the DP later? Or do they have to know you're on the DP when you make them?

From the Dining Plan FAQ for this forum:

How far in advance can I add the dining plan before my arrival?
The Dining Plan can be added to qualifying packages until shortly before your arrival date. The number of days varies depending on circumstances, so the recommendation is to be sure that you've made final arrangements at least five days prior.

There is a lot of great information in the FAQ that you may want to know about as you're considering or planning on using the Dining Plan. The FAQ can be found here: http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=16079998

Although you can add the dining plan a few days before your arrival, you might lose any room discountif you wait too long.
