Hi Cary!
Welcome to planDisney! I am so happy to see you planning a trip to the Walt Disney World Resort!
You will be delighted to know that you can make payments towards a vacation package. When you book a vacation package, you can reserve that package by paying a deposit. Once you receive the email with the confirmation number, you will need to
link that vacation package in your
My Disney Experience account.
Once you link your vacation package, check My Plans in your My Disney Experience account. Once you click on My Plans, scroll down and find your reservation details. Near those reservation details, you should see a link that says Make a Payment. You can use that link to make payments online. Just be sure to pay the balance due by the due date. If you cannot make the payments online,
contact a Cast Member by phone.
As it gets closer to the dates of your trip, be sure to double-check the
advanced dining reservation window policy. Currently, Guests can make advanced dining reservations 60-days prior to arrival. Also keep periodically checking the
operational updates since policies and procedures could change.
As you plan your trip, be sure to review the
Disney Resorts Collection hotels and check the amenities. Once you have it narrowed down to a few choices, be sure to look at resort maps to see how far from the main building your room might be. We always check the resort maps and then make room location requests using
Online Check-in accordingly.
Cary, keep up the excellent planning. If your family is anything like mine, they may want to coordinate a few shirts each day of your visit, so be sure to stop by
shopDisney to see what is available. We cannot wait to welcome you to a world of magic!
Magic and memories,
Donyell
