2014 Vacation Packages and Dining Plans Released

Walt Disney World has just released their vacation packages and dining plans for 2014. There are no major changes to the dining plans themselves, although there are--as expected--rate increases. Here are the prices for the various plans:

• Quick Service Dining Plan, per day (includes 2 quick service meals, 1 snack, and a refillable resort mug): $39.64 for adults (ages 10 and over); $15.75 for children (ages 3-9)


• Disney Dining Plan, per day (includes 1 table service meal, 1 quick service meal, 1 snack, and a refillable resort mug): $58.66 for adults; $18.88 for children


• Disney Deluxe Dining Plan, per day (includes 3 meals that can be used for table service or quick service, 2 snacks, and a refillable resort mug): $104.94 for adults; $29.51 for children

As for the vacation packages, Disney offers a Magic Your Way Premium Package and a MYW Platinum Package. You can contact the reservation line for more information. I only recommend purchasing a Disney package when there is some sort of discount or free offer (dining, gift card, etc.). Otherwise, these are not typically the best deal.
