Hiya Hap,
Welcome to planDisney! It is always a magical day when you are planning a Walt Disney World Resort vacation. I am happy to be helping you today.
While a vacation to Walt Disney World can be a dream come true, it can also be a nightmare for your wallet. How you budget for your vacation becomes super crucial once you take into consideration: a resort stay, Theme Park tickets, dining, and Enchanted Extras. When you book a
Walt Disney World Resort Vacation Package (which encompasses a stay at a Walt Disney World Resort Collection Hotel and Theme Park Tickets), you have until 30 days before your arrival to pay for your vacation (after an initial deposit). Note if you choose to purchase only Theme Park Tickets you will have to pay the entire cost of the tickets at the time of purchase. So a Vacation Package can be a real game changer if you need a little extra time to pay for your vacation. On top of that, Guests who book a Vacation Package also receive Magical Extras, which include discounts on dining and entertainment.
I hope this was the answer you were looking for, Hap. If you need more help, please come back and see us!
Happy Planning,
Ashley F.
