How to add dining plan?

[tinkluvr23]

I have rented a DVC for out upcoming vacation and am wondering if the DVC owner has to add the dining plan to our room? We are staying at the AoA for the first two nights so can we just add the full amount of time onto that reservation? Or do I have to separate it into two plans? I am hoping I can just add it on as that would be much easier.
Thanks!

When renting DVC, the owner has to add the dining plan to the reservation. It will only be for the days of the DVC reservation. The dining plan must be paid for when it is added, so you will have to work that out with the owner.

If you have a room only reservation at AoA, I don't think you can simply add the dining plan, it must be booked as a package.

You have two seperate reservations, so you would have to add a separate dining plan to each one. You cannot buy one dining plan to cover both reservations.

If your AOA reservation is a room-only you cannot add a dining plan to that unless you change it to a package. Unless you're an annual passholder or eligible for the military discount, that means you have to buy park tickets as part of the package. If your AoA stay is first, you could concievably buy tickets with that package to cover your whole stay (if you need tickets). The dining plan is limited to the number of nights on the reservation, but the tickets are not.

As noted, for the DVC reservation you will need to get the DVC owner to add the dining plan for you, as only they can deal with Member Services, and you'd need to arrange to get the payment for the dining plan to the member. No ticket purchase is required to add DDP to a DVC reservation.
