When you check into your hotel, all dining plan entitlements will be loaded onto your Disney band or card. To claim your free snacks, drinks, and meals, all you need to do is show the band or card at the magic point of purchase. Your receipt will track how many entitlements have been used so you can stay on top of what's left during your stay.
It's also worth mentioning that families with a valid Disney Resort hotel booking can also make dining reservations up to 60 days in advance to make the most of their holiday.
