    I have heard that you book a trip 499 days in advanced. I have tried to do this but when it asks me check in date, I cannot select past 2025. How do I book in advance?

    Hiya, Alexandrea, and welcome to planDisney! I'm thrilled you're here with this great question about planning a Walt Disney World Resort vacation. It sounds like you're at the beginning of the planning process, so it's a great time to consider all of your options! 

    Alexandrea, as of today, bookings are only available through the end of 2025. We aren't sure when bookings for 2026 will become available, so keep an eye on the Walt Disney World Resort website, official Disney social media accounts, and the Disney Parks Blog for the latest updates. 

    Have you thought about which Disney Resorts Collection hotel you'd like to call "home" during your vacation? You can't go wrong with any of the options, but I'd love to share a couple of my favorites with you. Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge is a true escape, with its thoughtful African-inspired theming, incredible dining options, and unforgettable views of giraffes and other animals grazing in the Savannah. Disney's BoardWalk Inn is a great option, especially if you're hoping to be within walking distance of fun restaurants, EPCOT, and Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Alexandrea, I hope this is helpful to you as you make your plans for your vacation. Please stop by planDisney with any other questions you have! If you'd like any recommendations on what to do or where to eat during your visit, you have a friend in me!

    See ya real soon!
