Hi there, and welcome to planDisney. Thanks for stopping by with your question.
A trip to the
Walt Disney World Resort offers so much for families to see, do, and experience together. From iconic attractions like Pirates of the Caribbean and Space Mountain to world-class dining, amazing nighttime spectaculars, and immersive lands like Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Pandora – The World of Avatar, there really is something for every age and interest. On top of that, staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel comes with extra value such as
complimentary transportation around the property, early park entry, and unique theming that keeps the magic going long after you’ve left the parks.
When it comes to tickets, children ages 3 to 9 do receive a discounted price compared to adult tickets. To see exact costs, head to the
Walt Disney World Theme Park page on the Walt Disney World website. Pricing depends on a few factors, such as the number of days you plan to visit, the time of year, the day of the week, and which ticket type you choose. The site makes it easy to play around with different dates and options so you can see what works best for your family. For ticket types, you’ll find choices like the standard 1 Park Per Day ticket, which is the most budget-friendly, the Park Hopper option, which allows you to visit multiple parks in one day, and the Park Hopper Plus option, which adds water parks and sports experiences.
Since you asked about family deals, I’d also recommend checking out the
Special Offers, Deals & Discounts page on the Walt Disney World website. Throughout the year, Disney releases promotions that can include discounted tickets, resort room offers, and package savings.
There are also some easy ways to stretch your Disney budget even further. Many Guests purchase discounted Disney Gift Cards at warehouse clubs or retailers with rewards programs, then use those cards toward theme park tickets, dining, and merchandise. At your resort, the Resort Refillable Mug can give you unlimited soda, coffee, and tea throughout your stay, which adds up to big savings. In the parks, I always recommend the refillable popcorn bucket for a low-cost way to snack all week long. And remember, you’re welcome to bring in your own food and snacks, which is a great way to keep little ones fueled between meals. Just make sure to save room for a DOLE Whip, a Mickey ice cream bar, or my personal favorite, Mickey waffles.
I hope this helps point you in the right direction as you plan your visit. If more questions pop up along the way,
I’d be glad to help you out here at planDisney.
See you real soon,
Brent
