Villa & Hotel

[CHEK]

Hi All, I apologise in advance, because I'm going to be asking sooo many questions on here, that you are going to be sick of seeing me
If we purchase our Disney tickets from Complete Orlando & Did a villa for 10 days & booked a Disney hotel for the remaining 6 days, would we be able to activate free dining with our already half used tickets?
Hope this makes sense?

No, you really need to do the Disney hotel first with free DDP then your tickets will be valid for your offsite stay.
Some have posted being successful getting their tickets upto 3 days before their Disney stay but others say they can't at all.
