If you book through Travelocity....

[sher92]

is there any way that you can add the Dining Plan at all even through Disney site itself?

 

[JanineandMike]

i'm pretty sure you can't. the only thing i could think of is if maybe you could purchase tickets at check-in and add dining plan then. that is pure speculation and a long shot at best.

You have to purchase a package to get dining (except for DVC and AP special cases). Travelocity is selling room only -- at least from what I've seen.

One can only get the Dining Plan addon if you book a WDW package through WDTC. All of the internet hotel/travel sites set up rates for room only reservations, and they cannot be converted to packages.

A package consists of a room reservation, and MYW tickets (unless you are an AP holder or DVC owner- Disney has special "packages" for them handled through their own system/reservation desk. I am talking about the general public). If you have a WDTC package, then you can add a dining plan, or one of the deluxe add-ons that cover food and entertainment/tours. Dining plans have to be added and paid for I believe 72 hrs before check-in. I believe DVC owners/guests renting points can add and pay for the dining plan at check-in.

If you book through either AAA or another travel agency, they are buying these same packages through the travel agent side of WDTC, and are being paid a commission by Disney.

You cannot buy a room through expedia, and then tickets from Undercovertourist and then call disney asking to change these to a package so that you can get the dining plan.

You actually can buy packages through some of the internet operators. I have a friend who booked the FD package through Orbitz for August. Obviously the package includes tickets. I'm not sure if she really got a deal like people have been getting for room only reservations - didn't ask the price.

no, unless the deal specifically says it is including the dining plan, there is no way to add it on.
