Hey There, Hi There, Ho There, Mary!
I'm so glad you stopped by planDisney. When it comes to planning a Walt Disney World Resort vacation, there's nothing quite as exciting as the day your Resort booking window opens –– that's when all the dreaming starts to feel real! Let me share a few details about the
Resort booking timeline for Disney Vacation Club Members to help you plan for your upcoming stay.
As a DVC Member, you have
two different booking windows to consider. The booking window at your Home Resort opens 11 months before check-in, while you can begin booking reservations at all other Resorts at the 7-month mark. Booking begins at 8:00 AM EST on the day each window opens and you can book stays of up to seven consecutive nights at that time. That means if you're planning to check in on September 17th, you'll be able to book that night, as well as the following six nights, on February 17th. Reservations can be booked online using the
Member booking portal on the Disney Vacation Club website or over the phone by calling Member Services at (800) 800-9800. Just be aware that
Member Services doesn't open until 9:00 AM EST –– if you'd like to make your reservations right when that window opens, you'll need to do so online.
During your September visit, you won't want to miss a moment of the excitement surrounding
The World's Most Magical Celebration. From the dazzling
Beacons of Magic to the delightful
Fab 50 Character Collection sculptures (not to mention all the
EARidescent snacks!), you'll find an extra sprinkle of pixie dust everywhere you turn. Eligible Disney Vacation Club Members can even enjoy 20% off their purchase of items from the
50th Anniversary Celebration merchandise collections at select locations –– be sure to visit the
Member Benefits section of the DVC website for all the details!
Thanks for visiting planDisney, Mary! Please feel free to drop by again if you think of more planning questions –– we're always happy to help!
Have a Magical Day,
Amy
