Welcome to planDisney Amber!
I am so happy you are coming to Walt Disney World for a return visit! It sounds like you have a fun group to travel with, so let's get the party started!
You might want to take a peek at the
Special Offers page. This will give you an idea of what's available at this time. No offers are listed for October yet, but you can always book your vacation then update to any offers or discounts as they become available (based on availability). You can easily make changes to your reservation on your My Disney Experience account. Change offers, add guests to your reservation, or change your room type. All with a few clicks on your keyboard!
After you have picked your dates and purchased your
Theme Park Tickets, remember to make your
Theme Park Reservations. You will need to have both the tickets and the reservations to enter a theme park.
When you are 60 days out from your vacation, you can book your
Dining Reservations. A big group like yours might enjoy
Via Napoli in EPCOT where you can order the giant Mezzo Metro pizza. It is such a delicious pizza; I get hungry even thinking about it!
As you get into your planning and booking, feel free to stop back to your pals here at planDisney if you have any other questions!
