Hi, there!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Brittney. We're so happy to hear you're planning another Disney vacation!
As a teacher
and a mom of school-aged children, my family usually travels to the
Walt Disney World Resort in the summer months. It's a great time of year to enjoy the unique Disney Resort hotel pools, the splash-tastic
Water Parks, and the you-may-get-wet attractions in the theme parks!
The only thing I love more than a Walt Disney World Resort vacation is a
discounted Walt Disney World Resort vacation. It's my pleasure to answer your question today! Summer offers and promotions usually become available in the Spring. Last year, a free dining offer and a room discount offer were both released in April for travel dates in June, July, and August. That certainly doesn't mean you have to wait until the Spring to book your
Disney Resort Hotel Package! You can book your vacation package now and when a discount is released for your travel dates, you can call the Reservation Line to see if the promotion can be applied to your existing reservation. Any deals are subject to availability, so sometimes you may have to be flexible with your plans in order to take advantage of a discount. For example, I once had a Standard Room booked at Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside. A promotion was released, but to benefit from it, I first had to upgrade my room category to Preferred. In the end, I still spent less money in the Preferred Room than I would have in the Standard Room!
My best advice is to frequently check the
Special Offers, Deals & Discounts page on the Walt Disney World Resort website. The moment you see a discount that includes your travel dates, call the Reservation Line at (407) 939-1936. I also suggest keeping an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for any announcements about special offers. It's your best resource for news and updates about Disney Parks and Destinations!
I hope this was helpful, Brittney. Please visit us again soon with any new questions you may have about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation!
