Hi Megan!
I'm so glad you stopped by planDisney to be part of our world as you start thinking about your 2025 Walt Disney World Resort vacation!
Megan, it looks like Fairy Godmother waved her magic wand when she saw your question because reservations for 2025 opened
TODAY! That's right, as of February 27, 2024, you can start
planning and reserving your Walt Disney World Resort vacation through October 31, 2025. But that's not all! Along with the announcement that you can start booking your package for next year, Disney
also shared a
new perk for guests. Beginning in 2025, guests staying in the
Disney Resorts Collection can enjoy admission to either
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park or
Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park on their check-in day. Whether you're looking to relax the day away on a lazy river (like me) or tackle big thrills like
Summit Plummet or
Crush 'n' Gusher (like my tween), there is something for everyone to enjoy at the water parks!
In addition to enjoying a water park on your check-in day, there are so many other benefits to staying in the Disney Resorts Collection including
complimentary transportation around Walt Disney World Resort and the ability to
make dining reservations for your entire length of stay (up to 10 days) 60 days before your arrival. I think my favorite benefit though is the extra time in the parks. All guests can enjoy
early theme park entry and guests staying at Deluxe Resorts or Deluxe Villa Resorts can take advantage of
extended evening hours on select nights and in select parks. As a mom with young kids, there is no such thing as sleeping in on vacation so we love hitting the parks as early as possible to beat the crowds, and the heat! This early entry is the perfect time to ride popular attractions with lower wait times.
When you're planning your vacation, I'd recommend checking out the
dining plan options currently available. My family loves
character dining and the
Disney Dining Plan allows us the flexibility to enjoy those in addition to grabbing meals and snacks on the go while in the parks. I also like that it can be added as part of my vacation package which makes my trip feel more all-inclusive.
Megan, I hope this helps as you start planning your 2025 trip to Walt Disney World Resort! You're always welcome to be our guest here at planDisney and we hope to see you again real soon!
Cheers,
Kristi
