Hi Maria,
Thank you for visiting us here at planDisney with your great question about Theme Park Tickets. It looks like you are planning a visit to Walt Disney World Resort early next year, I bet you are going to have a magical time!
When purchasing
Theme Park Tickets only, guests are required to pay the entire balance at the time of purchase. With that being said, if you are planning on staying at a Disney Resorts Collection Hotel, you will have the option to book a
Walt Disney World Resort Vacation Package that includes both Theme Park Tickets and a Resort Hotel stay. One of the benefits of booking a Vacation Package is that guests are required to pay an initial deposit and then are able to make payments at your convenience prior to your pay in full date. In other words, with a Walt Disney World Resort Vacation Package, you will not have to pay for your Theme Park Tickets in full on the day you book your reservation. I do also recommend keeping an eye on the
Special Offers page on the
Walt Disney World Resort website, as you may be able to take advantage of a special promotion during your stay.
I hope this information was useful, Maria. If you have any other questions as your vacation approaches, please come back to
planDisney. We are here to help in any way we can.
