How ya doin', Nigel, and welcome to planDisney!
Planning early is one of my favorite tips to offer people about planning their visits to the Walt Disney World Resort. Since you're already on the ball, I'm so pleased to tell you that you're able to book that trip for July 2027 right now!
Head to the
Walt Disney World website and use the Build Your Vacation tool at the top of the homepage to choose your dates, add information about your travel party, and choose your
Disney Resort Collection hotel. If you follow the prompts, you'll be able to then choose your
theme park tickets, add any
Disney Dining Plans, and finally pay what is currently a $200 down payment toward your vacation. You can then break those payments up in any way that's convenient for you as long as you've paid in full 30 days before you travel.
Pro-tip: While you're planning this far in advance, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for any
special offers, discounts, and deals. Disney releases discounts all the time, and if any become available that fit your vacation, you'll still be able to apply them after booking.
Nigel, I hope you enjoy your Disney wishes and pixie dust dreams as you plan for the most magical time. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to
come back and see us. We're here to help!
Happy planning!
Taylor
