I think I read a report on the Resorts Forum that someone was able to move it this afternoon.
You should be able to keep your 35% discount if you modify your dates if you originally had the Summer Recovery Free Dining offer.
merged you with the existing threadI know we keep hearing that folks are getting refunds on their dining plans, and some are getting an additional 35% off while others are not.
I have APs for DH and I, but they have not been activated, since they were bought in early spring in anticipation for youngest DSs HS graduation trip in June which was cancelled (by us) and we moved it to December.
So, we also purchased 7-day park hoppers for our 2 "adult" boys to be used for this trip.
I haven't seen where anyone has gotten a refund for their park hoppers or have I missed something??
I'm *fingers crossing* that they haven't started refunding the park hopper parts because they're trying to figure out how to get them to work with still making park reservations.
I'm also wondering out loud how IF the rumors about them keeping the MNSSHP party affects having tickets to that party mean that you can make reservation for say Epcot that morning but bc the party takes a special ticket that you can then "hop" to MK that night OR if that means you are "stuck" at MK for the whole day??
and my last wondering out loud is about this statement on the Disney page: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/travel-information/

Does that mean that since we're DVC and have a DVC reservation that *perhaps* I could add a dining plan, IF they open them up??? I mean, IS there such a thing as a "Disney dining plan that is NOT included in a package"??? What would that be exactly?
Thanks for humoring my ramblings..
Just sitting here patiently waiting for Disney to announce their next move....and tying to keep the obsessive planner in me under control...
The dining plan has only ever been available with a package, and it is no longer offered.
The rest of your questions are very much “wait and see.” With a December trip, I expect a LOT of changes between now and then. What happens this summer may no longer be true for Dec.

No not a regular package. It was allowed to add a dining plan with a DVC points booking. If you had added it, it would have been canceled. The dining plan is no longer available for anyone.So our August (and Dec) trips are both DVC and literally just days before they shut down dining plans, I was going to buy a Deluxe Dining Plan to add on to our August trip but would that have changed my "points only reservation" into a "package"??
What are they doing?I think it would be so cool if Disney did for their Cast Members what Sephora at Disney Springs is doing.
