Welcome back to
planDisney, Amelia! I'm so happy to know you will be starting off the new year with a visit to the Walt Disney World Resort! Thanks for sending us your planning question.
I've paid the balance for my
Disney Resort Collection hotel with a Disney Gift Card many times. I suggest visiting the front desk during your visit to let a Cast Member know you would like to pay your balance with your gift cards. Keep in mind, if you do make any purchases with a MagicBand during your stay, those charges will show up on your hotel bill. You can also visit the Front Desk the last night of your stay to pay for your balance.
If you have more than one Disney Gift Card, you can consolidate them to make check out easier.
Visit the official website to create your account and manage your balance before your visit!
Amelia, I hope this information is helpful to you as you continue to plan your vacation. Please feel free to come back to see us if you have any more questions. It's always
our pleasure to help you with all the details of your next visit!
