Hiya, Desirae!
It's so nice to have you back at planDisney! The
Walt Disney World bus system is a great way to get from place to place, but there's no question that it can take a big chunk of travel time out of your already busy day. Whether you're arriving in your own vehicle, trying to be first in the morning rope-drop line, or rushing to a dining reservation, there are times when it's really convenient to have your own transportation at Walt Disney World.
As a Disney Vacation Club Member, you'll have the
standard overnight self-parking fee waived when you're staying at a
Disney Vacation Club Resort, regardless of whether you're using Vacation Points or paying for your reservation. And if you're using your Vacation Points for a
Disney Resorts Collection exchange, parking is also complimentary. But here's the really great news –– not only does this apply to Resort parking, it also applies to theme park parking. That's because standard theme park parking is included for all Disney Resorts Collection hotel guests, including Deluxe Villas. You're also welcome to upgrade to preferred or valet parking at Resorts and theme parks during your stay, but those options will include an additional fee for most guests.
But the complimentary Walt Disney World Resort benefits for Disney Vacation Club Members don't end with parking, Desirae –– there's more to enjoy throughout your vacation! One of my favorite perks is the
EPCOT Member Lounge in the Imagination! Pavillion, available exclusively for eligible Members and their guests. There you'll find complimentary soft drinks, charging stations, a children's play area, and more. It's like a secret clubhouse just for Members –– be sure to check out this can't-miss stop for me during your upcoming visit!
Thanks for visiting us again at planDisney, Desirae! Keep those planning questions coming –– we love hearing from you and helping you create your own magical Disney vacations!
See Ya Real Soon!
