Hiya, pal, and welcome back to planDisney! Joyce, it means so much that you've come to us again for help with planning your next Walt Disney World Resort adventure. We know how special these trips are, and November will be here before you know it. I'm excited to help you sprinkle a little extra pixie dust on your plans. Let's dive into your question!
When planning my own vacations, I like to book my room as early as possible. After reserving my room, I check back from time to time to see if any new
special offers have been released. If I find a special offer, I simply
call Disney, and a helpful Cast Member will apply it to my existing reservation.
This approach works well for me because it allows me to be flexible with my budget and gives me time to make payments that fit my comfort zone, making the experience even more magical!
It's also easy to make payments online: just log in to your
My Disney Experience account, hover over “My Disney Experience,” and select “My Plans and Tickets.” Scroll down to locate your reservation, click it, and you'll see options to make a payment and review your payment history.
If you book a room-only reservation, you also have the convenience of paying the balance when you arrive for your vacation, if that suits you best.
While you're on the website, be sure to check out all the incredible events happening at The Most Magical Place on Earth. My personal favorites are the festivals at
EPCOT. The
International Festival of the Holidays would be a great one to look into. They’re truly unforgettable!
I also recommend looking into
Lightning Lane Passes. They’ll help you maximize your time in the parks by reducing wait times for popular attractions. And if you haven’t already, make sure to ride
TRON Lightcycle / Run at
Disney’s Magic Kingdom. I enjoy riding at night for an out-of-this-world experience!
Joyce, I hope this information has been helpful! Please feel free to come back anytime with more questions. It's always a pleasure to assist you, and I’d love to help you plan your next magical adventure.
Your personal planning companion,
Michelle
