    How do I pay toward my balance?

    Hi there, Michael, and welcome to planDisney!

    I’m sure that you are counting down the days until your upcoming vacation. There are so many memories waiting to be made at The Most Magical Place on Earth. Let’s dive right into how you can make a payment toward your booked trip. 

    Did you book your stay through Disney? If so, you can easily make a payment toward your Walt Disney World vacation package on the official Disney World website. Log in to your My Disney Experience account and find “My Plans.” If you scroll down a bit, you should see your booked reservation. There, you’ll find “Make a Payment.” You can do this via a phone call with a Cast Member as well. Sometimes it’s nice to hear a kind and helpful voice that can get the job done.

    Did you book with a third-party travel agent? In that case, you’ll want to reach out to them directly for them to make the magic happen for you. 

    Michael, remember that you can make payments up until 30 days before the first day of your vacation. It must be paid in full by that date. By following the steps above, you can see how much you owe and specifically when the total is due. 

    AN EXTRA GEM: Consider making payments for your trip using Disney Gift Cards. You can sometimes buy them at a discounted price at a local store. Every penny saved is a penny towards a yummy Disney snack (like DOLE Whips and Mickey pretzels). Keep the card handy though because if you cancel your trip, that portion of your payments will go back to it. 

    I hope that this helps you on your vacation planning journey, Michael. If you have additional questions, reach out to us here at planDisney. 

    Magic always,
