I do not recall ever having heard them mentioned, but if they are selling Disney tickets I'd be surprised if there there were issues using them. Be sure to do all the math to compare prices, quite a few "discount" sites end up being very little savings...

..because they add fees in the last step of the card. (Tickets at Work and sites that use them as their engine, like Sam's Travel and Govx.) I'd make sure USAA isn't doing that too. Good luck! :)

Good catch on fees - still looks like I save $30 on 4 people and get $20 in dining dollars. Not family with this - can I can convert to a gift card?

I've never looked into how dining dollars work, and it has always been unclear to me where they can be used, sorry.

I do dimly recall some people were using credits to buy GCs on the diningdollars website? Maybe someone with experience will jump in here...

Hey @flute- I've used the Disney Dining Dollars before, and you can buy a Disney GC with them if you have enough. They're not equal to actual dollars- think of them more like a percentage off, where 20 DD would be 20% off a GC. So not amazing savings...

Thanks! I see you can use them for gc discounts at chain restaurants too so might go that route. Anything 3rd party makes me nervous.

Totally understandable! I wasn't sure about them either until some came with an Undercover Tourist ticket I purchased not too long- and they work well. Good luck!

Aww, hey y'all! It's good to be here. I've been more of a lurker in the past year-- just what I needed to do for my own well-being in this space. But I pop in in the months leading up to trips (went last July, this past Feb, and...
