Hi Todd! Welcome to planDisney! It's great to have you stop by!
Let the countdown begin! Only a few more days until you arrive for a magical
Walt Disney World vacation. Let's dive right into your question and help you get set for your stay.
I have great news for you, Todd. From my experiences making purchases at Walt Disney World, I have not encountered any additional fees on everyday transactions. There will be select taxes added and possibly some fees associated with your
Disney Resorts hotel reservation. There may even be a hold put on your credit card that you provide when checking in to your resort, but other than that, you should be good to go. I can't say the same for the bank or credit card company that you are using. There may be fees that I'm not aware of that are applied through them. I suggest checking with these companies to avoid any surprises.
You're arriving at the perfect time to enjoy all the festivities happening at EPCOT. The
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival is underway and welcoming Guests each day. There are beautiful topiaries and amazing flower displays that are sprinkled throughout the park. There are also
Outdoor Kitchens stationed throughout the World Showcase and in other areas of the park. You'll have options to try delicious and flavorful menu creations at each one of these booths. I highly suggest making a stop here a priority during your stay.
Todd, if you are staying in a Disney Resorts hotel, you can use your
MagicBand+ for purchases across all of the theme parks and resorts. The credit card that you put on file will be charged for all purchases made with your band. It's a quick and easy way to pay for your items as you explore.
I hope you have a magical time! See ya real soon!
