Cheri, becoming an
Annual Passholder gives you a yEAR full of Disney magic! I love all the exclusive benefits I receive- especially the discounts on dining, merchandise, and resort stays. I'd suggest bookmarking the
Special Offers page on the Walt Disney World website. I check this page often when I'm thinking about planning a trip. Currently, I see a fantastic discount for Passholders on stays at select resorts for most nights from April 28 through June 30, 2019. With the upcoming opening of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge this fall, it's anybody's guess whether there will be room only discounts around the holidays, but I would keep checking!
My niece recently got accepted into the
Disney College Program, and she thrilled to be part of this exclusive internship program so she can gain valuable, on-the-job experience at The Most Magical Place on Earth! Similar to Passholders, she gets a discount on merchandise, resort rooms, and select dining locations. College Program students also get One Day Park Hopper Guest Passes based on how many hours they have worked- if extra Park passes are needed for visiting friends or family, discounted tickets are available for purchase. You also get discounts on hard-ticket events, such as Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, and cruises with Disney Cruise Line. I believe the College Program interns also receive Cast Member discounts on select services at the spas and salons on property, and Disney Floral & Gifts. Hopefully, you or someone special that you know is able to become part of the magic, as I've hEARd from multiple Cast Members that this is a life-changing experience!
Thanks for bringing your great questions to the Moms Panel, Cheri! We're always happy to help!
