The Deluxe Disney Dining Plan Returns with Big Changes
The Disney Dining Plan just changed in a BIG way. What do you think of these changes?
Disney Dining Plan
Potentially save time and money on your Disney World vacation by purchasing a Disney Dining Plan. Enjoy a certain number of prepaid meals and snacks during your stay to make your vacation feel more "all-inclusive". Spend more time enjoying your vacation and less time on meal budgeting while you're at Disney.
Currently, you can purchase either the Quick-Service Plan or the Disney Dining Plan as part of your vacation package.
We have everything you need to know about the plan, including what comes with the plans and how to keep track of everything in this handy guide.
Disney Dining Plan 2027
The Deluxe Dining Plan was introduced just before the parks closed in 2020. When the Disney Dining Plan returned in 2024, this was no longer an option. Earlier, Disney sent surveys to Guests that led many of us to wonder if the Deluxe Disney Dining Plan would return.
Disney now confirms that a new Deluxe Dining Plan will return in 2027. Before we dive into the new Deluxe Dining Plan, here are the 2 current Dining Plan options.
There are 2 Disney Dining Plan options. The Quick-Service Dining Plan is the most basic, with no table service, 2 quick-service meals (per day), 1 snack or non-alcoholic drink (per day), and a resort refillable mug.
With the second being the Table Service Dining Plan with 1 table service meal (per day), 1 quick-service meal (per day), 1 snack or non-alcoholic drink (per day), and a resort refillable mug.
Disney Deluxe Table- Service Dining Plan
With the new Disney Deluxe Table-Service Dining Plan, Guests can enjoy 2 Table Service Meals (per night of stay), 1 Quick Service Meal (per night of stay), 1 Snack/Nonalcoholic Drink (per night of stay), and 1 Resort Refillable Mug (per person).
Disney now confirms that a new Deluxe Table-Service Dining Plan will return in 2027.
This does slightly differ from the Disney Deluxe Dining Plan offered in 2020. In 2020, the Deluxe Dining Plan offered 2 Snack Credits (per night of stay), and in 2027, this plan will only offer 1 Snack Credit (per night of stay).
In 2020, this plan offered 3 meal credits per day. Guests could choose to use these as Quick Service or Table Service. In 2027, 2 meal credits are now reserved exclusively for Table-Service, while 1 is reserved exclusively for Quick-Service.
As a reminder, Kids (ages 3-9) can eat free when you purchase a 2026 package with a dining plan for your family (ages 10 and above).
In 2027, kids (ages 3-9) can save 20% off dining when they purchase a package that includes a dining plan for their family.
