Hi Rachel! Welcome to planDisney! I love that you're already dreaming about your 2026 Walt Disney World Resort vacation. Planning ahead is
the key to unlocking a truly magical trip!
While there’s no direct notification system for when vacation packages are released, there are a few ways to stay ahead of the game so you can be among the first to know when bookings open for 2026!
1. Keep an Eye on the Official Website –
The Walt Disney World website is your go-to source for all official announcements. As soon as vacation packages become available, they’ll be bookable right there!
2. Follow the
Disney Parks Blog – This is where
big updates (including the release of vacation packages for the next year) are often announced first. It’s like having a crystal ball for all things Disney planning!
3. Sign Up for Disney Emails – If you’re subscribed to Disney’s promotional emails, you may receive updates about vacation packages and special offers when they’re released.
4. Stay Tuned to
planDisney – We’re always keeping our Mickey ears open for the latest planning news, and we’d love to help you every step of the way!
Last year, Disney released vacation packages for 2025 in May 2024, so if history repeats itself, we might be just a few months away! Stay tuned, keep those countdowns ready, and before you know it, you’ll be picking your Disney Resort hotel and planning which snacks to try first!
If you have any more questions,
feel free to reach out. Happy planning!
