Hi Emily and welcome back to planDisney!
I see you'll be visiting during the holiday season, which is my favorite time of year at Walt Disney World! I love the sights, sounds and smells all around the theme parks, Disney Resort hotels and
Disney Springs during the holidays, especially the Christmas Tree trail at Disney Springs. I hope that makes a return again this year! I can't wait to see all of the beautiful holiday merchandise that will be available. I'm a sucker for anything Mickey and Christmas!
Key to the World cards aren't regularly given out to Guests staying at a
Walt Disney World Resort hotel anymore as most of the tickets and room keys have gone digital. I did speak with a Cast Member to see if sending them out ahead of time is possible, but unfortunately, it is not. You can request Key to the World cards at the front desk of your Disney Resort hotel at any time during your vacation.
If you haven't already looked into it, I highly recommend attending
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. It's such a fun special event and one of my favorite parties at
Magic Kingdom Park. It's so fun to see "snow" flurry around Main Street U.S.A. and the cookies are delicious! My favorite from last year's party were the snickerdoodle cookies. Yum! Complimentary hot cocoa and apple cider top off the evening. There's also a new holiday party this year at Disney's Hollywood Studios! I'm excited to hear all about
Disney Jollywood Nights when it starts in November.
Please
stop back by and visit if you have any additional vacation planning questions.
Have a magical day!
