******Official 2017 Free Dining Plan Watch, Wait, and Dream

That could be, but why not just say that? He was saying that he couldn't tell. Sorry, but the whole thing just rubbed me the wrong way, especially when he said he had concrete dates for FD. It's funny how he deletes a lot of his posts.

Maybe he doesn't understand the term bounceback. When you call the number on the brochure, they refer to it as a "future stay." Maybe he has taken that term and decided it means that FD is just coming for everyone.

He certainly was rude to you.

Thanks. I wonder if he had a pin code

Pin code or bb do seem to make the most sense. I was going to suggest that maybe he's from the UK or some other country that can book free dining before US but his profile says he's from New Jersey...

I know. I think he just wants attention. When FD is released and it is for longer then the dates he says he will say see I was right even though all he did was quote the BB dates. I asked a TA friend of mine and she says she has never heard of such a thing. She has been in the business a long time too. I see no need for him to delete his posts either I find that so strange.

This is AWESOME!!

I am thinking that I can pay oop for most of my sons meals. Game changer!!!!!!

Just remember that when you add a dining plan (free or paid) it charges you for each person in your reservation.
You can't buy a dining plan for one person and pay OOP for everyone else. Everyone will have the dining plan.

Ahhhhh shucks...... I like going to the circus but I guess it's in New Jersey, shoot!

Oh yes! I just want to eat so many places!! I was planning to pay oop pocket for a couple of the cheaper restaurants but this way I may be able to use DS's credits. I'll have to sit down and do more calculations

rumors, rumors, rumors.....where are you? We're waiting......

Does anyone else think dinner at La Hacienda during Illuminations is one of the best kept secrets in all of WDW? I know it's gaining in popularity but our family thinks is the highlight of our trips.

I've never done it, but I've had multiple long-time CMs tell me it is worth the wait for the window table. I will find out on Sep 4th!

I wouldn't call it a secret as it is very popular, but yes great spot.

Have you seen the dining plan punch cards people design over on the the dis creative forums. You can print them out and then mark off as you use credits.

Do you have a link to the best available of these punch cards? Please and thank you.

Just heard that Seaworld is offering a FD package on a commercial.......?

SWs all day dining is incredible. We used it last summer for the first time. Basically $35 and we could get an entire meal every hour!

Charge a "mum tax" on the kids' dining plan?

Wow, really? Is it good for the entire stay, like a week long stay, I should read more into it.

I know you weren't asking me, but see if these help! I may have to do something like this. . .

SeaWorld is now offering a Canadian Discount on their park tickets.

It's too bad that the Dining Plan at SW for AP just came out this year. I so would have purchased it last year, knowing I was coming again this year. I don't think it is that great a deal when at the most I will only get 5 meals from it. We may do Aquatica one day so that mean only 4 SW days.

Those dis creative people are pretty amazing!

When you order and use your Dining Plan does the receipt no longer have the amount of credits left on it? Or are the punch cards something someone decided was easier to keep track of?

I think it still has it on the receipt. These are just a cute way to keep track and not have to worry about keeping track of receipt, although you have to keep track of the punch card

TY to the one who told us about paying oop for one person's meal. We will pay out of pocket for my son's meal at the HBD. We already plan two meals being shared. (My hub and I both want the duck, and lamb so we will each get one and share, now we were already going to cut a piece of duck and lamb for the DS to try something new too.)

I like the idea for our next trip because we'll have such a large group and I need to keep track of who has used what. The receipts just tell me numbers and I need to keep track of who has used what because we will have three rooms.
