Hi Chelsey, and welcome to planDisney. I also recently returned from a Disney World trip, and the only cure for the Disney blues is planning another visit!
Currently, the discount for return trips is only valid on select stays in 2026. You can check the exact dates by looking for the “Return to the Magic! Save on Your Next Stay” promotion on the
Special Offers page of the Disney World website (you may have to scroll towards the bottom of the page to find it). Make sure you log into your
MyDisney account for this offer to appear. You’ll also see that the offer needs to be redeemed in a certain number of days, usually within seven days of check-out. You can call the
Tickets and Hotel Reservations phone number to check on eligibility for your return offer.
However, if you’re not planning to come back until next year, let’s chat about your options. 2027 dates will likely be available for booking soon since they’ve traditionally opened for reservations in early Spring for the following year. When the date is confirmed, you’ll find an announcement on
Disney Parks Blog with all the details. Even if you book right away, you’ll want to keep an eye on the Special Offers page since new promotions are always popping up. Once you see an offer that works for your stay, you can apply the new discount to your reservation as long as there’s availability. To do this, you can modify your reservation on the Disney World website or call the
Tickets and Hotel Reservations phone number.
When I don’t have a Disney trip planned anytime soon, there are a couple of things I like to do to bring a little magic home with me! First, is to check out the At Home Fun section of the
Play Disney Parks app. You’ll find Disney Parks trivia and games inspired by attractions like Slinky Dog Dash and Peter Pan’s Flight!
I also like to watch videos on the
Disney Parks YouTube channel. There are some incredible behind-the-scenes series, like Disney Unscripted, where you can see how they built this year’s
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival!
Happy planning, and I hope you have the best time during your return trip next year! If you have any other questions, we’re always here for you at planDisney.
