    Can I use Disney gift cards to pay for parking?

    Hi, Hilary!

    Welcome to planDisney! Disney Gift Cards are super fun to have on hand! I like to buy them throughout the year then have them to use on my vacation. It is like having a little bonus money for my trip! 

    You may certainly use a Disney Gift Card to pay for your theme park parking. Simply present the gift card to the parking attendant. They will quickly swipe your card and direct you to the parking lot. Remember, if you are staying on property at a Disney Resort Hotel, parking at the theme parks is complimentary. If you are staying off property, there is a daily charge to park at the theme parks however you only pay one time per day so keep your receipt if you plan to park hop or take a mid-day break.

    During your magical vacation, hopefully you will have some time to visit Disney Springs! This is a wonderful location for dining, shopping, or even to see a movie. It is a nice break from the parks while still enjoying all that Disney magic you want during your vacation! And a real bonus - parking is complimentary at Disney Springs!

    Wishing you and your travel pals an unforgettable vacation with Mickey, Minnie, and all their pals!

Meet the Panelist: Cathy, Ohio

Hi, I'm Cathy from Cleveland. I love to travel, especially in the winter to escape the cold of Ohio! My husband and 2 kids share my enthusiasm for travel, so we enjoy our adventures together whether it is sailing with Disney Cruise Line, running (or cheering!) at runDisney events, taking hula lessons at Aulani, or vacationing at the Walt Disney World which is our home away from home. I am proud to be a part of the planDisney team and cannot wait to share my tips and advice for a magical vacation
