Hi Barbara!
Welcome back to planDisney! I'm so happy you stopped by to see us again as you prepare for your next visit to Walt Disney World Resort!
The
Enchanting Extras Collection is full of wonderful ways to add an extra pinch of pixie dust to your vacation plans, Barbara! Whether you're thinking about booking a dessert party, art class, specialty cruise, spa treatment, tour, or anything in between, there is truly something to delight everyone in your travel party. In general, activities in the Enchanting Extras Collection are open for booking 60 days before your intended date. However, if you're staying at a hotel in the
Disney Resorts Collection, you have the added benefit of being able to book Enchanting Extras 60 days before your check-in date for the entire length of your stay! Many of these experiences are incredibly popular, and some are only available on select days, so I recommend booking early for your best chance of securing your desired activities. If you aren't able to get a reservation right now, I'd encourage you to keep checking back. Guests do sometimes change their plans, and I've seen previously "unavailable" or "sold out" activities show availability again closer to the date of our vacation.
Barbara, as you're planning your activities, here's a little bonus piece of information that may be helpful. When I was booking some Enchanting Extras for an upcoming trip, I was unable to pay with a
Disney Gift Card when trying to complete the purchase online. If you're like me and prefer to purchase and use Disney Gift Cards to help you budget for your trip, you should find that you can make these reservations
over the phone with your gift card. I found the Cast Members to be incredibly helpful throughout the process! Just make sure to hold onto your Disney Gift Cards, as any refund that is processed if you need to cancel will be refunded to your original payment method.
I hope this information has been helpful, and I'm sending lots of happy thoughts your way as you continue to plan a most magical visit, Barbara! If you have any other questions, please stop by to see us again here at planDisney - we're all ears!
Cheers,
Kristi
