I just don't understand how they could possibly eat more food than what they are entitled to. Most of the portions at WDW are so large that we have to spilt them.
I've done the DDP twice, and both times we had to stock up on snacks and CS meals to take home. I can't imagine eating all that food and then some. They must be interested in signature dining.
No, wait... isn't the ticket on the KTTW along with the dining credits? How could you save the ticket for later use???
The meal credits are pooled. Everyone in the room uses the same pool. So you could put the "extra" KTTW in your wallet and never remove it, and still use all of that "guest's" credits.

Thanks for the welcome, and thanks to the powers that be for opening these forums to those of us who are not (we hope!) stupid guests! :)

I just wonder about the name you would give your phantom child. If John Smith is on the card, I guess Sue Smith could use it for park admission later. But can a card for John Smith be used to upgrade to a longer park ticket or AP for Sue Smith? I'm not sure if unused tickets are transferable?

On a side note, I applied an unused 5 day MYW ticket I got in January to an annual pass last week. I used the food credits off this ticket in January (I was traveling solo), but did not use it for park admission since I had an AP. But it was in my name, so there were no problems.

Correct, both food and ticket entitlements are locked to the name on the KTTW and are non-transferable. Of course with a child ID will not be checked, but it would take some work to abuse it.

Can't you have the ticket cmponent from your KTTW card seperated,so you can have a paper ticket?

Yes and since the ticket was never used it can be transfered to someone else.

You need to ask Darph Nader and Grumpy Pirate about the raising of spirits. At least the ones found in glasses.
