Guide to Walt Disney World FREE DINING Offers

For the first time in 4 four years, Disney World is again offering the infamous FREE Dining offer.

Current Free Dining Offers at Disney World

If you’re a Disney Visa Cardmember you can get a FREE Disney Dining Plan for select dates and hotels in July, September, and December 2024.

The trade-off here is that you cannot combine the room discount with this offer. Free Dining Plan offers generally work out better for those that have 4+ people on their reservation.

Otherwise, it might work out better to take the room discount.

Insider Tips on the Free Dining Plan

Dining Plan Upgrade

If you book the offer at a Moderate or Value resort, receiving a free Quick-service meal plan, you can pay a price difference to get the Disney Dining Plan.

Free Dining Blackout Dates

As with most Disney World offers, there are blackout dates. Disney does not disclose what those blackout dates are. Some resorts and room categories are excluded on select nights.

Disney may adjust blackout dates and hotels without notice.
