Hi there, Emma! Welcome to planDisney, your one-stop destination for all things
Disney vacation planning.
First visits are so very exciting!
And you're going during
the holidays? It's already a magical time of the year and you will be at the Most Magical Place on Earth! There are so many things to be excited about: the
attractions,
the shows, the nighttime spectaculars,
the food, and the holiday decorations. It'll all be here before you know it!
If you book a vacation package to the
Walt Disney World Resort through a travel agent, you will not receive luggage tags before your trip. However, when you arrive at your
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel, you can usually request them at the
Front Desk (subject to availability). In the meantime, if you just
have to have one to use on the way there, there are
luggage tags available for purchase on shopDisney. Just make sure to look into the shipping and handling timeframes to ensure they will make it to you before your trip!
There are so many other ways that you can commemorate your trip! You can ask for a Celebration Button to celebrate your first visit. These can usually be found at
Guest Relations locations outside of the theme parks and even at the Front Desk of your hotel. You can also purchase a
MagicBand at one of the
merchandise locations at the resort, or if you have a vacation package (Disney Resorts Collection Hotel
and theme park tickets purchased together),
you can usually pre-order them through your My Disney Experience account. Just make sure to do so between 6-10 days before your arrival date so that they can be shipped to your hotel to pick up when you arrive.
Emma, I hope your family's first trip is better than you could even imagine. If you have any other questions,
please reach out directly to me and I'll get them answered for you!
The greater the challenge we are willing to take, the greater the life we live,
Matt
