I hope someone can help me. I am considering getting the dining plan but it is not available with a Florida Resident discount. I am going to the Magic Kingdom and MGM for 4 days in June with my wife and 3 year old daughter.
The cost of the hotel/dining plan/tickets will be $1,400. The hotel alone is $500 and if we were to buy tickets for the park, Florida Residents can get a 3 day pass for $240 for adults and $99 for child. So that would be $840. The difference is $560.
Typically when we have gone in the past (before child), we never did table service restaurants at the park. But having a young child, I plan to stay at the park for dinner and would prefer to do the table service so we can all relax for an hour or so.
Is it worth if for me to pay the $1,400 for the dining plan (which has the advantage of not having to pull out cash constantly) or should I just pay for meals as I go? If we were to do Breakfast/lunch/dinner/snacks at the park, all counter service, would we spend $560 or more? I would prefer to do some sit down meals though.
Basically, it will cost me $160 more for tickets if I dont take advantage of the Florida Resident discount.
Any advice or opinions?
