    We are granted a Make-A-Wish trip and I am wanting to go to the Very Merry Christmas Parade. How do we go about booking this? Does it charge my card automatically if I book in advance?

    Howdy Gavin!

    Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney with your question. First of all, I hope your child is doing well. As a parent of a Make-A-Wish Kid, I certainly understand what it’s like to have a child with a life-threatening illness. My daughter's wish was to go to Walt Disney World, and she had the most amazing time. The magic of the Disney Parks and Resorts is why it’s the most-granted destination wish.

    There is nothing like the holidays in the parks, and Disney certainly knows how to celebrate them. My fellow panelists and I are planning on attending Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party this year as well, and we can’t wait to experience all of the festivities. You can use this link to Purchase Tickets for this special event via the Walt Disney World website or through the My Disney Experience app. I strongly encourage you to buy your tickets as early as possible, since this is a super popular party and it tends to sell out.

    You should receive a Disney Wish Pass with your packet. This lanyard will be your magical key to the kingdom. You will show it to access the Lightning Lane queue for all rides and experiences you choose. We found that cast members are trained to identify this pass and help make your experience as enjoyable as possible. Many times, they also took us to the front of the line during character meet-and-greets. You never know when they may sprinkle you with a little pixie dust as well. 

    Gavin, I hope your family has an absolutely magical time during your child's Wish Trip. I hope that during this time, you all can put aside any worries and experience the joy and magic of Disney as a family. May all of her wishes come true. Please stop back by if there is anything else I can do for you here at planDisney.

    Wishfully yours,
    Robert
