The title of the email said passholders are eligible for this free dining. I don’t see anything about that?

Jim, it may be the case that they are allowing people to do room only to get Free Dining in this current circumstance, as they already purchased tix when the parks closed, However, it isn’t true that during normal Free Dining promos pass holders are allowed to just pay for the room. Free Dining promos require that you purchase a package including tickets.
