Meal plan question

[mom2dea]

Ok here is a dumb question I am sure .
I just booked the 4 day 3 night fl resident stay at Disney . You know the one with the free meal plan . My question is When dose the meal plan start ?

We check in on Oct 1st and check out oct 4th We have 3 days at a park witch we may actrully save one day just cause . So Dose it start the day you check in meaning the 1st,2nd, 3rd and not the 4th ???? or its starts the 2nd,3rd, 4th ????

Other question is if you do not use a snack one day can you use it another day or do you just lose it ???

thanks

The dining plan is tied to how many nights you are staying, it starts on the day you check in and expires at midnight of the day you check out. You wont lose any credits unless you dont get them used by midnight on your check out day.


Here is a great thread. Lots of good info.

The dining plan options are available to you from the time you check in until midnight on the day you check out. The table service, counter service and snack credits are all pooled together and can be used however you want. I'll use my family as an example. We have 4 people and we are staying for 10 nights and 11 days. Since the number meals/snacks is dictated by the number of nights, we get a total of 40 table service, 40 counter service and 40 snack credits to use on the dining plan during our stay. How many of each you use in a day is up to you. I've heard of some people having several snack credits left on their last day and either buying snacks for their trip home or treating strangers to Mickey Bars! I've also heard of people having two table service meals on one day and two counter service on the next. It's great to have that flexibility. I hope you enjoy it and I hope we do, too!
