    How do I go about planning a trip to Disney? Itenarary? Hotel reservations etc

    Hi there, Patricia. I'm so happy you've stopped by planDisney. I'm thrilled to meet you and honored to help you get started on a magical journey. As planDisney panelists, we are Guests like you who love sharing our knowledge and experience and finding ways to sprinkle pixie-dusted advice on planning your visit to Walt Disney World. So, in the words of Peter Pan, "Here we goooooooooo!" 

    You can book your own vacation on the Walt Disney World website. At the top of the homepage, you'll find the option to "Build Your Vacation." From there, you can enter the number of Guests in your party and enter your travel dates. Then, with just a click, you can explore which Resort hotel and ticket options are best for your family.

    If planning your own vacation on the website feels a little overwhelming, you can always take the problem-free philosophy of Timon and Pumbaa. With a Haunka Matata, you can work with an authorized Disney vacation planner. These agents are well-versed in how to plan a Disney vacation. I suggest searching for one of these agents on your computer or looking for a local travel agent in your area. 

    Patricia, as you plan your visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth, be sure to stop by and visit us at planDisney. We are here to help you and provide heartfelt advice and tips. For instance, did you know that in 2025, Disney Resort hotel Guests will receive complimentary admission to one of the Disney water parks on their check-in day? Did you know that on the Walt Disney World website, you can find Special Offers, Deals & Discounts, and information on visiting in the summer? We're committed to assisting you and helping you navigate your way through all the details. Please make use of our video resources and follow us on Instagram for more updates! 

    I hope this information helps you get started, and I hope you'll visit us again as you start making those magical plans. I'm wishing you the most wonderful vacation! 

    Happy planning, 
    Shonette
