    My mom and I are coming from Texas to attend the Candlelight Processional in December. We are staying for three nights but only need a ticket for 1 day. Is there any advantage to adding the ticket to our reservation rather than buying at the park?

    Hi ya, Barbara!

    I’m so happy to hear that you have a visit coming up. The best news is that your visit takes place during the holiday season. So there’s going to be so much to see, especially with a visit to EPCOT. You’ll get to enjoy the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays.

    Sometimes you can find deals on a vacation package. Currently, it seems that the offers are intended for stays longer than yours. I’ll be honest, it’s these offers that convince me to stay longer. I’ll be extra honest, it doesn’t take much for me to extend my trip. Another great perk to bundling it all together is that your balance is due in one place. And even though you are planning on staying for three nights and only one park day, you can still complete and purchase your vacation package this way. You have the freedom to select the number of days you would like to visit the parks. 

    Of course, you can purchase the two separately if you would like as well. Your Disney Resort stay comes with all the same benefits, even when booked without tickets. So Hakuna Matata, Barbara, your plans are completely up to you!

    I hope this helps answer your question so that you can continue to plan for your visit and finalize your bookings. Have the merriest visit, and if there’s anything else we can help with, please let us know!

    Happy Holidays,

    Shantel
