Hi Michelle! Welcome to planDisney!
It looks like you are planning to visit the Walt Disney World Resort very soon! How exciting! Now is a great time to visit. Not only is the
Walt Disney World Resort 50th anniversary celebration taking place, but you'll also get to see the theme parks all dressed up in their holiday best. You'll love it!
Before booking any part of your vacation, I recommend checking the
Theme Park Reservation Availability calendar to make sure Disney Park Pass reservations are available for the days you want to check out the theme parks. If they are, then let's move on to the next steps!
The best place to start searching for availability is the
Disney Resorts Collection hotel page on the main Walt Disney World website. You can search the dates of your visit to see what is available and what the cost is. This is a great way to find the resort that will best meet your budget. You will also want to check out the
Special Offers available for Florida Residents to get the best deal! Make sure you are signed in to your
My Disney Experience account with your Florida address to see all the offers that are available for Mickey's neighbors.
Once you have your resort picked out, you can move on to building your vacation package with
Walt Disney World theme park tickets and
Disney Genie+. As you add each element to your resort stay, the cost will update. It's super convenient!
When your vacation package is purchased, you can do things like make
Disney Park Pass reservations (currently required to enter the theme parks) and
dining reservations (up to 60 days in advance). Simply follow the links I included for you to easily reach each piece of your vacation planning puzzle!
I hope this helps, Michelle! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
