Hi, Gail! Welcome to planDisney! It's always a pleasure to meet one of my Florida neighbors!
How fun that you and your partner would like to visit the Walt Disney World Resort for the first time! Before our son was born, my husband and I spent many days strolling through the theme parks. Good times, good times!
Unfortunately,
Disney doesn't offer discounts on tickets for senior citizens at this time. There are
discounts for Florida residents, but those don't kick in until you get to 3-Day Tickets or higher. I did find that you could save a few dollars with AAA, so if you have a membership there, I definitely recommend looking into that.
Gail, there are a few advance plans you need to make before hitting the theme parks for the first time. For starters, you'll want to
create a free My Disney Experience account and
link your tickets to it. Once you've done that, you'll need to
make reservations for the theme parks you plan to visit each day. You can find lots of info to
help you plan your Disney days on the Walt Disney World website. And of course, you can always come back and see your planDisney pals if you have any more questions!
I hope you and your partner get a chance to spend the most wonderful time of the year at The Most Magical Place on Earth, Gail! Thanks for stopping by, and have a joyous holiday season!
Keep Disney Dreaming,
Kathy K.
