Hello, Kassandra!
Welcome to planDisney! I am so excited to hear that you are already planning to visit the Walt Disney World Resort next year for the holidays. The holiday season is my favorite time of year to visit because I love the holiday decorations at each
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel, Disney Theme Parks, and Disney Springs. It will get you in the holiday spirit.
You are a vacation planning rock star and I applaud your efforts to begin booking your trip when the bookings for 2023 opened a few days ago. Most of the 2023 season is available for Guests to book room-only or room and ticket packages for Disney Resorts Collection Hotels. Keep in mind that Guests can only book a reservation 499 days in advance. The remaining days in 2023 will become available as the booking window moves through 2022 day by day.
You will be able to book your reservation on or after July 29, 2022, for your trip beginning December 10, 2023. You can make your reservation online or by
speaking with a Cast Member by calling (407) 939-1936 after 7:00 AM. The countdown is on to your reservation day. You may want to celebrate by wearing your favorite Disney-themed sleepwear. I will celebrate by having a cup of coffee or hot cocoa in my favorite Disney mug. If your family knows about your upcoming trip, you can get them in on the planning fun by having them wear their favorite pair of ears or a MagicBand while you book your stay. There are so many ways to celebrate such a magical day.
Once your reservation is confirmed, the official countdown begins. It may be a little bit too early to start packing, but you can always visit us here again at planDisney if you are looking for recommendations on dining or other holiday festivities you can enjoy during your trip. Let the planning begin!
See ya real soon,
Andrea
