Should I upgrade my Dining Plan?

Right now I have 2 quick service per night. I'm staying 3 nights. I have a character meals set up for 2 of the nights already. Those count as the table dining, right?

So would it be better for my wallet if I changed it to 1 quick service, 1 table dining per night?

I guess the difference would be paying for a table dine or quick service at the time of the meal. If the character dining counts as the 1 meal then that would save me a ton since those cost a lot more, I would think. So I'm questioning if they even count lol.

Thanks

If your staying only 3 nights and already have 2 character meals planned (which ones??) I would deff either upgrade or get rid of it completely and pay the whole thing out of pocket when your there .. They will not accept any quick service credit at a sit down restaurant as a partial credit, so whatever the bill is when your there is what your paying... sounds like you should plan one more TS and upgrade.. If you keep the quick service plan and have 2 sit downs planned in 3 days you will be overloaded with food (you'll see what I mean when you're there) and more than likely you will be loosing out on money...

Thanks friend. Yeah, I had just added the second character dining so I hadn't planned on doing multiple table service when I originally booked but now that I have 2 I was thinking I might as well just upgrade and make it 3 and lose a quick service. It sounds like the best bet financially and just food wise so I'm not overloaded with food as you say lol.

Chef Mickey's and Hollywood & Vine. I wanted to take my daugter to cinderella's royal table but there were no spots at the moment. My son also has absolutely no interest in going to a princess dinner. I couldn't even sell him on it being in the castle. I thought about just going me and her and my mom, dad, and him go elsewhere (even though I hate to split up and miss moments, I really want to take my daughter). But again.. there's no spots at the moment.

If your visiting Epcot see if you can get an ADR @ Akersush (Norway buffet) they also have the princesses come out. I hear a lot of people prefer there instead of the castle for a princess meal.

Do the upgrade and make another table service reservation, you will be happy with that decision. Especially if you're doing buffets you will have more than enough food with what's provided on the plan..Let me know if you have anymore questions :)
