Hi Sara! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, and thank you for bringing your question to us. I bet your family is so excited to head back for another magical adventure!
Walt Disney World Resort does offer great room and package discounts frequently throughout the year. If you have already reserved your choice of Resort hotel and later discover that a Special Offer has been released for your travel period, you can have it applied to your reservation quicker than you can say, “bibbidi bobbidi boo!” However, understand that there may be excluded Resort hotels, room types, or dates. Because of this, many Guests will modify their travel dates or change Resort hotels to fit the qualifications of the Special Offer. Simply call (407) W-DISNEY, or (407) 934-7639, give the Cast Member your reservation number, and let them know you’d like to apply the Special Offer to your reservation. They will be able to help you determine if you are able to apply the Special Offer to your current Resort stay, or if you will need to modify any portion of your reservation so that it can be applied.
There is no set time when or if Special Offers on Resort rates or packages will be announced. However, there are many websites out there that do keep track of released Walt Disney World discounts. Looking over a few of them, I see that Special Offers for the fall historically tend to start arriving around May. Stay tuned to the
Walt Disney World Resort Special Offers page this spring and summer to watch for one that best fits your family’s trip this fall!
I am sending you many wishes for a pixie-dusted vacation, Sara!
