Hi Haley! Welcome to planDisney! Thanks for stopping by with your question?
Oh boy! A Walt Disney World summer getaway is fast approaching. I'm happy to hEAR that you are planning on adding more time to your stay! My planning usually starts out the same way. It begins at a few nights, and then I quickly start trying to figure out how to squeeze in more time. With so much to experience at the parks and resorts, there is never enough time to do it all.
Walt Disney World makes it extremely easy to add on a night to your stay. You'll need to
call the Disney Resort Hotel Reservations line and speak to a Cast Member for assistance. The Cast Member will happily look up your existing reservation and depending on hotel availability, they will be able to make this change for you.
Now that you will have more days to explore the
Walt Disney World Resort, I would consider adding an additional park day to your visit as well. It will allow you to take a slower approach to the parks that you plan to visit. It's never possible to fit everything into one day, so multiple visits will give you a chance to spread out the experiences. My family has found that our best days at the parks are the ones where we pick out a few must-dos and prioritize those. This way, nobody will be disappointed if we could not get it all in.
I'm excited that you will be able to experience the two new nighttime spectaculars that are taking place at the Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. These shows are amazing to see in person and are equipped with colorful projections, fireworks, and your favorite Disney music! Also, if you find yourself in EPCOT during your stay, make sure to ride the newest attraction that will be opening in time for your visit.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is set to open at the end of May and is anticipated to be a thrilling addition to the park.
Haley, I hope you have the best time during your upcoming stay. Have a magical vacation!
See ya real soon!
