THE HUB: Worth It or Not Worth It, The Dining Plan

diningFor this Hub, we discuss whether or not the Disney Dining Plan, as of March 2018, is worth it or not worth it.  This is part three in a series or Worth or Not Worth It shows which include MOW #163 and MOW #208.

Since all of us agree that the dining plan is worth it for the average family, each of us takes a dining plan and break it down for a week’s stay. Lee, Danny, and Kevin plan out where to eat, when to eat, and what to eat.

  • Danny is assigned the Deluxe Dining Plan.
    • Total price is $581.25, which $116.25 per adult per night.
  • Lee is assigned the Standard Dining Plan.
    • Total price is $377.45, which is $75.49 per adult per night.
  • Kevin is assigned the Quick Service Dining Plan
    • Total price is $262.50, which is $52.50 per adult per night.

Here are a couple of things to keep in mind regarding the Dining Plans.

  • SUBSTITUTIONS! Table service dessert can be exchanged for a side. Counter service credit can be exchanged for 3 snacks (good to know for Food & Wine)
  • Credits are based on nights of stay, but can be used up until midnight on check out day.

And, here are the rules we were given for this activity.

  • Arrive on a Saturday,  Depart on Thursday. That is 5 nights, 6 days. You decide the time of year.
  • Break down each day. Which park? What is your counter service meal? Table service meal? Where do you use your snack credits?
  • Park Hopping allowed
  • Must use all credits
  • You can supplement your plan with outside items (Garden Grocer)

We hope you enjoy this activity ike we did. It also made us very hungry by the time we were done with it.
