Hi Stephen,
Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us at planDisney with your question, we are thrilled you stopped by! I am so happy to read that you are considering a vacation to Walt Disney World Resort this fall, I am sure you will love visiting at this time of year, it is certainly magical!
Personally, I don't think it is too early to start planning your visit for this October.
The 50th Anniversary of Walt Disney World Resort begins on October 1, 2021 with lots of added magic available for guests throughout the celebration. Since you are planning a visit right at the beginning of the celebration, I do suggest booking your vacation package as soon as possible, as resort hotel availability and
Theme Park Reservations are booking quickly. For me, knowing I have guaranteed my Disney Resorts Collection Hotel stay as well my Theme Park Tickets and Theme Park Reservations even though it is still a while away gives me peace of mind. One of the great perks of booking a
Walt Disney World Resort Vacation Package is how easy it is to modify and even cancel if needed. You can always check Theme Park Availability using the
Theme Park Reservation Availability Calendar to see if there are still reservations available during your stay prior to booking.
For dining, if you choose to book
Advanced Dining Reservations, they are currently available for guests to book 60 days prior to your arrival which will be coming up in a few weeks. I also recommend making any Advanced Dining Reservations as close to the 60 day window as possible, to avoid disappointment. Most Dining Locations are extremely popular and fill up quickly.
I hope this information was useful, Stephen. If you have any other questions as you continue to plan your Walt Disney World Resort Vacation, please come back to
planDisney. We are always here to help.
