Well, hello there! Welcome to planDisney, Jaclyn. It’s always great to be able to help a fellow New Yorker.
I’m so happy to hear you’re planning a
Walt Disney World vacation. You’re now one step closer to a vacation you will certainly never forget! Of course, there are so many things to think about when planning a vacation, so I totally understand why you would like some planning resources sent to you so you can get started. Unfortunately, Walt Disney World is no longer sending out these planning guides via snail mail. But, worry not, Jaclyn! There are still so many helpful resources to get you on your way!
I find that one of the best planning resources is the Walt Disney World website. This is where you can view in-depth overviews of the
Disney Resorts Collection hotels, explore all of the incredible dining locations you’ll get to enjoy, check out the thrilling attractions in each park, and so much more! The
"Know Before You Go" page is particularly helpful. If you scroll down to the "Your Guide to Updated Experiences" section on this page, you'll find some quick links to important details to keep in mind as you plan your visit, like the latest information on the latest Disney technology, health and safety updates, and
Disney's Park Pass System.
Another great resource is the brand new
planDisney podcast, where you’ll get excellent advice and insight from my fellow fabulous planDisney Panelists. If you haven’t yet selected your Disney Resorts Collection hotel, I think you’ll really like the Resorts episode. I’ll link that episode below, so you have easy access to give it a listen!
Now, if planning your Walt Disney World vacation seems a bit overwhelming, you might benefit from working with an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner. These travel professionals specialize in planning Walt Disney World vacations and can take the weight off your shoulders by coordinating your entire trip from start to finish! Not only will they take care of booking your Disney Resorts Collection Hotel reservations, but they can also arrange your flight, ground transportation, and more. Some will even secure your
Advanced Dining Reservations for you! How awesome is that?
A simple Google search is the easiest way to find an Authorized Disney Vacation planner. Just use search terms like “Disney Travel Agent,” and you’ll see many options in the search results. It might also be helpful just to ask around! Referrals are a great way to find someone reliable, so it wouldn’t hurt to ask some friends or even share a post on social media asking for recommendations.
Of course, never forget that your friends at planDisney are here to help you every step of the way. So, if you have any questions as you continue to plan your visit, please don’t hesitate to reach out! We just love making our fellow Guest’s vacation dreams come true!
Until then, happy planning!
