Ep. 85: Can We Beat The Disney Dining Plan?

In this week’s episode, we’re diving headfirst into one of the most talked-about Disney debates, whether the Disney Dining Plan actually holds up in real life or just sounds good on paper. We’re getting ready for our upcoming October trip to Walt Disney World for Wine & Dine Weekend, and we’ve built out a full dining game plan from quick service stops to table service reservations both in and out of the parks.Before anything is booked, Jonny puts on his very serious accountant hat and breaks down the numbers to see how the 2026 Disney Dining Plan stacks up against our very intentional “eat what we want, when we want” strategy. We’re sharing our approach and our thought process, but not all the answers, because you’re going to want to hear how this one plays out for yourself!If you’re loving the show, we’d be so thankful if you could leave us a review! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️IG: @OnceUponAParkPodcastErica IG: @TravelPlannerEricaJonny IG: @Darth.MouseEmail Us: [email protected] to plan a trip to Disneyland or Walt Disney World?
