Hi Cheryl, and welcome back to planDisney. I’m excited that you’ll be walking down Main Street, U.S.A. and eating all the Mickey-shaped snacks in just a few days! It’s a Bibbidi Bobbidi Bummer that someone in your crew won’t be able to join the trip, but I’d be happy to help figure out your options.
While you can usually modify Disney resort hotel reservations and vacation packages on the
My Plans page of the
Disney World website, I just chatted with a Cast Member, and they recommended calling the
Tickets and Hotel Reservations phone number since you’re so close to your trip. Someone there will be able to talk you through your options and adjust the reservation. According to the
terms and conditions for vacation packages, modifications to the reservation made 30 days or less are currently subject to a $50 change fee.
I love
Port Orleans French Quarter’s cute New Orleans theming, boat to Disney Springs, and of course, beignets at
Scat Cat’s Club - Cafe! And, at night, it turns into a
lounge with live jazz music (currently Thursday through Sunday after 7:30 p.m., but check the website for the latest schedule). In the evenings, there’s even a special version of the beignets with Baileys Irish Cream.
It’s such a great time to be at Disney World right now because so many new things have debuted over the last few months! Some of the highlights for me are the two shows at Hollywood Studios--
Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After and
The Little Mermaid - A Musical Adventure, and the
Disney Starlight nighttime parade at Magic Kingdom. The sparkling floats are incredible, and I can’t wait to finally see them in person!
I’m wishing you the most magical stay at Port Orleans French Quarter next week. If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to visit us again at planDisney.
