Disney Dining Plan / Castmember Question

[dizzy123]

Do Castmembers recieve a discount on the Disney Dining Plan Packages? If so, is it just for the castmember, or for the entire family? How would I go about adding the plan onto my package?
Thanks!

Well, I am not a CM. I used to be a CM at a disney store and one of the other CM's I worked with used to bring in the Disney World CM newsletter she got from a friend who is a WDW CM. I am not sure if they always get discounts but I noticed one time they had a great deal on a vacation package for CM's. It was a value resort stay and the dining plan for around $25 per person per day. The tickets were not included since CM's can get themselves plus 3 guests in for free whenever they want to. That was a great deal! Hopefully someone else can say if they always offer some sort of discount on the dining plan though.
