Dining plan question. Help please.

My 10 year old daughter is autistic and is very particular about food. She will not even try most foods on the adult menu, but she is over 9. We are on the free dining plan, so it's no big deal, as I assume we can "trade down" to the kids menu for her. My question is, can we pay for a kids menu meal out of pocket and save the adult dining credit for later? If so, both my children would actually prefer kids meals, and this would give us 4 or 5 extra sit down meals in exchange for paying for the kids meals? Is this allowed? Am I being dishonest and cheating the system? :shrug:

Assuming both your kids are 10+, yes, you can pay for their meals OOP and save the credits for more meals. "Technically" you're not supposed to be able to order from the kids' menu if they're over 10, but that's rarely enforced. If the other child is under 10, you can't use their credits.

Just let your server know you want to pay cash for their meals and book some Signature restaurants to use up those extra credits! :king:
