Hi there, Christy!
Thanks for stopping by with your question.
Christy, one of the many wonderful things about
Walt Disney World Resort vacations is that you can customize them for your budget. A magical, budget friendly vacation is very doable with advanced planning and a little help from your friends here at planDisney!
In the case of
Theme Park Ticket purchases that are bought separately, full payment is due at the time of purchase. However, if you’re looking for a payment plan, I would suggest you book a package reservation.
Package reservations include Walt Disney World
Resort hotel stay and Theme Park tickets; and the amount due to secure that would be $200 as long as you are more than 30 days from check-in. The remainder is due 30 days before your check-in date and you can make payments whenever and for whatever amounts you like. You can also simply pay the remainder at one time. If you know your vacation dates, you can start booking at the main page of the
Walt Disney World Resort website and enter those along with your party information, which is where you can check availability and where the package creating begins. You can also
contact a Cast Member and they will be happy to help set up your package with you!
Christy, one way that really helps my family budget is by saving all our Disney Gift Cards. My family and friends usually know to get me Disney Gift Cards for all special occasions because I prefer experiences more than anything else. You can keep your
Disney Gift Cards organized on the website after you create an account. You can combine your Disney Gift Cards in any denomination to a single card with a value of up to $1000. I like to go to combine mine into separate categories, such as Dining, Resort hotel, and Shopping.
If you’re looking into budget-friendly Resort hotels, I suggest checking out the Value Resorts!
Disney’s Pop Century Resort is absolutely magical and now, you can take the
Disney Skyliner from the Resort hotel to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and EPCOT!
Christy, keep us in mind once you’ve booked your reservation. We love to chat about maximizing your Walt Disney World Resort Vacation!
