Thanks, I know how to add the DDP just wondered if the DDP will show up on my MDE afterwards or if that only applies to the DDP for direct reservations?Just booked it for our trip next week. You can either call member services (for payment of more than 1 gift card) or add it with a credit card on the DVC site in your reservation. Enjoy...
Is the DDP even worth it anymore?I’m considering adding the dining plan to my DVC.
I can’t recall if the DDP will show up on my MDE - anyone know if it does?
With a family of 4 and 1 of them being a picky eater the numbers just don't work for us anymore. In the past the DDP was a good value but now like you have stated you have to plan.I used it for my last trip and I enjoy having the option. It does take some planning to get your money's worth, but it can definitely be done.
I did it for a girls' trip MLK weekend, no kids. I feel like we came out ahead since we enjoyed the alcohol and we weren't wasting snacks on junk for the kids they'd forget about. We snacked around Epcot, and it was really nice to have all of the trip prepaid for. I know everyone goes on and on about the gift cards, but we've been burned on those where someone had already utilized the code and they were blanks. NBD, it was for like $20, but after that experience, there's no way I am buying hundreds or thousands of gift cards and worrying about them being drained by someone else. Plus, the GCs are a PITA since you can't store them in MDE as a payment method. Disney needs to get their act together on that one.Is the DDP even worth it anymore?
Yes, we used it in February and it showed up in the app (we are DVC and booked with points) and it was easy to use. It wont show up until the date you check in-so don't look for it before then like I did. Also, as soon as I clicked check out the last morning- it disappeared so make sure you know what is left before checking out. Have fun and enjoy!Thanks, I know how to add the DDP just wondered if the DDP will show up on my MDE afterwards or if that only applies to the DDP for direct reservations?
IIRC in the past DDP for DVC reservations did not show up on the MDE.
