Current Disney Dining Credit offer, please help
Hello everyone,
I have never had Disney dining credit, how does it work? If I had $504 dining credit does that just get put onto a gift card? Or how many credits does that turn into? Sorry, I am confused by the whole thing haha. TIA xx |

It goes on to a dining gift card, and then you can spend it however you like on food and beverages at selected locations.

Yes, it's a digital gift card. You can add it to MDE to use for mobile ordering, or show the barcode at dining locations to use it that way.
OP, you'll see a lot of references to meal credits in older posts (and vlogs, if you watch them) but that was the old free dining offer which can be confusing. This one is effectively cash, so you can order whatever you want at participating locations (pretty much all restaurants - some small food kiosks may be excluded) and then use the dining card to pay for it. |

its probably worth a lot less than the old free dining but it's way more flexible - you can also use the $200 gift card on dining - so that may bump up your meals.
most quick services are around $10 for kids and $15-$20 for older kids / adults including a drink etc. - nicer to use it for sit down meals to take the sting out of a special meal. how much does it work out per person per day? I'm presuming the class of hotel ups the amount too? its 'free' so you gotta love it |

Depends how many people are in the room. I travel solo in a value, so that's $36/day just for me - I can easily stretch that to cover all meals if sticking to QS. A family with 5 in a moderate room ($61pn) would only get about $12/day each so would be OOP for at least 2/3 of their spend. More if doing a lot of TS meals.
This deal definitely benefits solo and couple travellers more, where the old free DDP was better for families. Edited at 04:02 PM. |
