Hi Anakaren, welcome to planDisney! Thank you for stopping by with your question. I'm delighted to assist you! Your trip to
Walt Disney World Resort will be here before you know it! The holidays are one of the most beautiful times to visit. You are sure to make awesome memories at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
Anakaren,
theme park tickets only, without a resort hotel
vacation package, do not qualify for the payment plan option. The full amount is due at the time of the purchase. These tickets are nonrefundable and nontransferable. You'll be able to use a credit card or a
Disney Gift Card to pay for your theme park tickets. To be able to make payments, you would need to book a Walt Disney World vacation package, which includes theme park tickets and a Resort hotel stay. At this time, you would be able to pay a $200 deposit and total payment is due 30 days prior to arrival. My family and I always book ahead, at least a year out, and take advantage of making monthly payments.
If buying tickets only is more convenient for your family, unfortunately it is not possible to purchase both a standard date-based ticket and a park hopper ticket in a single transaction. At checkout, you will need to select your desired ticket type: either standard or park hopper. In the past if I have been uncertain of my itinerary, I've purchased standard date-based tickets then upgraded to the
Park Hopper Option if needed. Just a reminder that you cannot upgrade to a Park Hopper ticket for just one day. If you upgrade from a base ticket to a Park Hopper, you will need to do it for the length of the ticket.
Anakaren, I hope you find this information helpful. Thank you again for visiting planDisney. Have a magical day!
