Hi Matthew,
Thank you for sending your question to planDisney, we are always happy to help!
Disney's Art of Animation Resort is my family's favorite Value Resort, the theming is incredible!
Since you are booking a Walt Disney World Resort Vacation package, you will be able to make payments toward your balance owing in
My Disney Experience. While there is no official payment plan, once you secure your reservation with a deposit, all of your vacation details will be available to view and modify as needed. To view your plans and make a payment, login to My Disney Experience, click on "My Plans" and then scroll down to your Plans, Reservations and Tickets. From there, click on "Make a Payment" and follow the prompts to make a complete your transaction at your convenience. For me, I like this option because it is flexible and I can make varying payments toward my balance when I have time. You could also make a payment by calling (407) 939-1936 and a Cast Member will be happy to help with your request.
Once you have secured your Walt Disney World Resort Vacation Package, I would highly recommend making
Theme Park Reservations as soon as possible. Guests are required to have both a valid Theme Park Ticket as well as a Theme Park Reservation each day to enter a Theme Park. Reservations cam be made in My Disney Experience, under "My Plans" and then "Park Reservations". Simply follow the prompts to add all of your Family & Friends, select the date and then choose which Theme Parks you would like to visit every day.
I hope you have a magical time at Walt Disney World Resort, Matthew. Please let us know if you have any other questions as you continue to plan, we are here to help!
