Upgrade Dining Plan after Booking?

[elfbo]

DF and I will be traveling to disney and arriving 26th of Jan 2012. We are planning to take advantage of the free dining offered by disney right now. Our question is, if we book the base dining plan, can we upgrade it to the next level plan later? And if so how much later? We would like to go to the next level, but wont be sure its in the budget until Christmas time, which is past the 45 day balance due window, but is still a few weeks out from our travel date.

Thank You in advance for your help. I would call disney, but seeing that its sunday...figured i could ask the question here first and maybe get an answer over the weekend

You can add, remove, or modify dining plans up to 72 hours before check in. Obviously, if you are less than 45 days out, you will be responsible to pay at the time of upgrading.

(Note: it's 72 hours for non DVC point reservations, of which the OP is utilizing. DVC points reservations are 48 hours.)
