A warm, pixie-dusted welcome to planDisney, Andrew! I’m delighted to help you with your question today, especially as it sounds like you're thinking of partaking in one of my beloved Disney pastimes - shopping. There's nothing like
retail therapy sprees at The Most Magical Place on Earth.
Shipping items home is particularly handy for international visitors like us, allowing you to shop to your heart’s content without worrying about fitting everything into your suitcase! Mail services are sometimes available right at the checkout counter, a helpful Cast Member can arrange for your new treasures to be sent via 'magic mail' straight to your doorstep, for a small fee. You can also ship pre-packed, pre-labelled packages at the Front Desk of most Walt Disney World Resort hotels - great if you want to ship a few items at once.
No matter where you shop at Disney Springs, the
Guest Shipping Station can help. Located in the Marketplace between Once Upon a Toy and Tren-D, it offers professional packing and flexible shipping services to international destinations. Cost will depend on packaging weight, destination, and services selected.
Before you shop til you drop, I highly recommend using the
Merchandise Mobile Checkout available at select Walt Disney World Resort stores. Through your My Disney Experience app, you can quickly scan and pay for items, skipping the queues and automatically applying any eligible discounts. It’s a magical time-saver and absolutely perfect for those who can’t resist the irresistible lure of Disney treasures! (Talking about myself here.)
I hope these tips sprinkle a little extra pixie dust on your shopping adventure, Andrew, and make your time at Walt Disney World even more enchanted! If you need anything else, we’re always here to help at
planDisney!
