Hi Martin, and welcome to planDisney!
I think that planning for a
Walt Disney World Resort vacation in advance makes perfect sense. I love the idea of getting the date I desire, especially if it is a specific resort I want to experience. Good job starting the research phase of your vacation planning, by the way!
The rates for 2023 have not been released yet but could be released soon. I usually like to check around late May to early July to see if the dates are available. Once the rates are made available, you can make your reservations at that time. In the meantime, you will be able to book a “room-only” reservation by calling 407-939-1936 and speaking with a cast member who will be able to assist you. This service is offered up to 499 days prior to your proposed arrival. The best thing is that you can reserve a “room-only” reservation, and once the rates are released, you can upgrade to a package at that time.
Please let us know if you have additional questions.
Have a magical experience!
