Happy New Year, Paula!
I'm so happy to welcome you to planDisney! How exciting that you're planning a family vacation to Walt Disney World! With your trip coming up, there are so many new experiences waiting for you. From discovering attractions you've never tried before to making memories together that you'll be talking about long after you're home. It's such an exciting adventure to have on the horizon!
Florida residents can purchase their discounted tickets by logging into their My Disney Experience account on the Walt Disney World website. From there, hover over "Tickets & Parks" at the top of the page and select "
Buy Theme Park Tickets." If you run into any issues along the way, a Cast Member at
Tickets and Hotel Reservations will be more than happy to assist you.
While Florida residents do have some wonderful perks when it comes to park tickets, these special discounts are reserved exclusively for Florida residents. So, you wouldn't be able to purchase for your family members who don't live in the state.
I know this can feel like a bit of a
Bibbidi Bobbidi bummer, but there are still some
great offers you may be able to take advantage of. Right now,
Disney+ subscribers can enjoy a Spring Ticket Offer that includes a 3-Day, 3-Park Ticket with admission to Hollywood Studios, EPCOT, and Animal Kingdom. While Magic Kingdom isn't included, it's still a fantastic value...and you could always purchase a separate
one-day ticket if a visit to Magic Kingdom is on your must-do list.
In addition, there are also currently special room offers available, as well as discounts for U.S. Military Members. Another smart way to save on theme park tickets is by using
Disney Gift Cards. Some third-party retailers offer them at a small discount, which can really add up when you're planning a Disney vacation!
Paula, I hope this information has been helpful and that you have a great trip with your family. If any other questions come up throughout your planning, you're always welcome as can be at planDisney!
Magic Awaits,
Kami
