Hi Amy,
Thank you so much for visiting the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question!
Walt Disney World does often put out great
Special Offers. There can be discounts on rooms, certain tickets, packages, and other great offers at Walt Disney World. These offers do change from year to year, and we cannot assume that Disney will release the same offers from year to year.
My best advice to you is to keep checking the website I linked above. In years past, Special Offers with October dates have been released as early as late April, but also may be released throughout the spring and into summer, so I suggest that you keep checking back to that site to see if any additional Special Offers come up that are appealing to you.
I hope that these thoughts are helpful for you, Amy! Have a wonderful time planning your magical vacation, and please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.
