New Disney World Dining Plan option for 2017
There is a new addition to the Walt Disney World Dining Plan for 2017, Disney Dine on the go.
Disney Dine on the go dining plan – $29 per adult and $12 for kids.
With the Disney dine on the go dining plan you get two Disney quick service meals at the Magic Kingdom. You have to have lunch before 4 PM and dinner after 4 PM. The Disney dine on the go plan is only available at the Magic Kingdom park. With Disney Dine on the go, you get one meal and one drink for lunch and dinner. There is no snack credit.
If you are planning a Walt Disney World Vacation the traditional Disney Quick Service Dining Plan, or Disney Dining Plan might be a better option for you.
Let’s do the math, and this is not Disney math.
We think the average meal price at Disney World at Quick Service is about $15. We went to the Magic Kingdom and tested the Disney Dine On The Go plan and saved $4 for the day vs. buying her meals without the plan. $4 is not a great deal, but for a family of four that’s $16 saved. But if you skip a meal and go on a ride instead or your kids fall asleep, then you are losing money. Also ask yourself if you normally eat lunch and dinner at the Magic Kingdom? I like to snack and see attractions so I might eat just one meal myself at the Magic Kingdom. So for me this new Disney Dine on the go plan is not ideal. Do the math and also do the math with the traditional Disney dining plans.
