Upgrading park tickets to an AP and keeping Free Dining

[CGriz]

Hello all,

We have a trip booked this year with the Free Dining offer. I plan on upgrading the tickets to an AP once we get there, but I just wanted to make sure that once I upgrade to the AP that I won't lose my Free Dining. The research that I've done says that I will keep the free dining, but I just wanted to make sure. I've upgraded package tickets in the past to an AP, but I've never had Free Dining before so I'm curious.

Your dining is tied to your hotel stay, not your tickets. So you'll be fine!

I think once you've checked in, you've fulfilled the obligations of the package.

Upgrading your tickets upon arrival will have no effect on your free dining.

Thank you for your replies! It's great to hear I'll still be able to keep the free dining!

We do it all the time. You'll be fine.

I plan on doing the same during my free dining bounceback stay in December. Even booked a few post package days at Bay Lake Tower to get in additional MK days.

I am seriously considering doing this, too. Good to hear it works!

I did this in September and it worked fine. With the AP you get the memory maker photos included, so it seemed worth it to me. I did the upgrade on the first day before I entered the park so that all my photos would be included from the start.
