Jambo, Carey! Welcome to planDisney. We're happy you're here!
It sounds like you have an exciting and adventurous stay planned at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge! You're going to love the gorgeous resort, incredible
dining experiences, roaming wildlife, and impeccable
Club Level amenities. One of my most recent trips included a stay at this resort and I'll never forget sipping coffee on my balcony while a giraffe slept under the light of the moon nearby!
Carey, my best tip would be to reach out to
Disney Signature Services at your earliest convenience and they'll be able to provide you with the best next steps that are available to you! You can either call (407) 939-7777 or email at
disney.signature.services@disneyworld.com, but since your trip is still a few months away, I'd recommend sending an email. This way, you can outline any questions you may have for the concierge team and they will get back to you as soon as they're able to! When it comes to making your
advance dining reservations, these can be made 60 days prior to your arrival date for the length of your trip. However, by contacting the Disney Signature Services team earlier, you can make sure that all of your Donald Ducks are in a row well ahead of time! I'd also suggest taking a little time to look into the
Enchanting Extras Collection so you have an idea of any extra touches of pixie dust you'd like to sprinkle on your magical plans. Personally, I'm a big fan of the
Magic Kingdom Fireworks Dessert Parties! This is a great way to enjoy some special sweets with your travel party, then view Happily Ever After in a reserved area for a truly spectacular view.
I hope I was able to help you with your question today, Carey! If we can help in any other way, please visit us again.
You've got a friend in me!
