    My family and I are looking to plan a trip to WDW in January 2027. When will booking become available for that time frame?

    Hi J, and welcome to planDisney! 

    Nothing beats a case of the Mondays like planning for your next visit to the Walt Disney World Resort. With a whole year until your vacation, you've got all the time in the world to make this trip the best one yet. I'm delighted to help you gear up for your next big adventure. 

    In my personal experience, I'd start keeping my eyes peeled for vacation packages to open up around May or June of 2026. While those dates are subject to change, the last several years have seen packages released during that time frame. But while you wait, this is the perfect time to dream!
     
    Your early planning prowess leaves you time and opportunity to start planning the major details, such as your choice of resort, Enchanting Extras, and Advance Dining Reservations.

    Pro-tip: If this is your first Disney vacation, be sure to download the My Disney Experience app to your mobile device. It's the perfect place to consolidate all of your travel plans. The magic will be right at your fingertips. 

    J, may the magic find you ready for all sorts of fun in 2027. Have the best time!

    Happy planning! 
    Taylor
