Hi there, Natalie, and welcome to planDisney!
It sounds like you are planning a visit to
Walt Disney World Resort, and that's always a
practically perfect idea!
Because there's nothing quite like seeing the countdown to your next magical vacation in the My Disney Experience app, I am happy to share that you will be eligible to link your vacation package as soon as you have received the confirmation email! To complete this process in the My Disney Experience app you will simply need to select the three horizontal lines in the bottom right portion of the screen, choose 'Future Plans', and then 'Link to Account'. From there, you'll select 'Type ID' and then enter the ID or Confirmation Number provided in your confirmation email. Once the vacation package is linked to your account, you'll be able to link other members of your
Family & Friends List to the reservation so that you can plan together.
As a reminder, once you have made the initial deposit on your Walt Disney World Resort Vacation Package, you will have until 30 days before your arrival to pay the remaining balance. This can be paid either in one lump sum or spread out over periodic payments made through your
MyDisney account or by
calling a helpful Cast Member.
If you encounter any issues with the process, feel free to
reach back out to me here at planDisney or to contact a Cast Member for assistance. We're always happy to help!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
Lizzie
