Welcome to planDisney, Caroline! I'm glad you found us and asked your question.
It's so great that you were able to take advantage of the 2024 Early Booker Package. I'm all about planning my vacations to the
Walt Disney World Resort as early as possible and I find that it usually pays off. And with this particular offer, it actually does!
Guests from the United Kingdom and Ireland who booked an eligible vacation package (
theme park tickets and
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel room booked together) with the 2024 Early Booker Package are eligible to receive a Dining & Merchandise Credit and a Disney Gift Card to use on their magical vacation. The amount is dependent on the type of hotel booked: value, moderate, or deluxe. The best way to confirm the amount that you will receive is to
call a friendly Cast Member at the resort. They will be able to look up your information and let you know how much you can expect when you arrive!
Once you know how much you'll receive, it's time to plan how you're going to spend it! Some of my favorite restaurants at the resort right now are
Steakhouse 71 at
Disney's Contemporary Resort,
Jungle Navigation Co. LTD Skipper Canteen at
Magic Kingdom Park, and the classic
Le Cellier in
EPCOT. You'll want to make sure that you are booking your
advanced dining reservations starting 60 days before your arrival date (for up to 10 days of your trip). As far as merchandise, you can't go wrong with the all-encompassing
World of Disney in
Disney Springs, the unique
Haunted Mansion-centered offerings at
Memento Mori in Magic Kingdom Park, and all of the shops around World Showcase in EPCOT. Just be sure to inquire about the locations at which these credits and gift cards can be used.
Caroline, February is almost here and I can tell your trip is going to be beyond your wildest dreams...and all you could wish for. Speaking of wishes, you'll want to check out
Disney's Wish, currently in cinemas, and if she's still there when you visit EPCOT,
say hi to Asha and talk all about it!
Please reach out to me directly if you have any other questions.
I’m sure there’ll be challenges that find me, but I can take them on one at a time,
Matt
