Hi there Jerry, and welcome to planDisney!
Although 2024 is still a couple of years off, your
Walt Disney World adventure is just a dream away! My fellow panelists and I just love to start planning our vacations as soon as possible, so I understand being excited to get your trip officially on the books.
Currently, room-only reservations and
vacation packages are available through the end of 2022. We're still waiting on bookings to open for 2023 and beyond, so I recommend checking the website from time to time or contacting an authorized Disney travel planner who can do the work for you. Vacation packages tend to be released in the spring or summer for the following year, so I would start checking more frequently in the spring of 2023. Fortunately, there's a lot of new experiences headed our way in the next few years, so by the time you travel, you'll have a chance to experience upcoming attractions like
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and
TRON.
While you wait for your trip, I'd be happy to suggest a few things my family and I do to help the time pass in between Disney adventures. If you're a
Disney+ subscriber, check out the new, "Celebrate 50 Years of Disney World" section, which offers Disney Parks content like Imagineering Story and Behind the Attraction. Both are fun and interesting for all ages, but my little ones prefer the shorter Behind the Attraction episodes.
Also, be sure to follow the
Disney Parks Blog and
find us on social media to keep up with new attractions, restaurants, and resort offerings that will be available during your trip. Finally, check out some of our
Panel Extras for more ideas about getting the whole family involved in the planning process and fun ways to count down to your vacation.
I hope this is helpful, Jerry. If there's anything else we can do as your trip starts to come together, don't hesitate to reach out again.
Happy holidays!
Betsy
