Hey there, Rodney. Welcome to planDisney.
Is there any combination of words in the English language better than “all-inclusive vacation”? I can tell you’re the type of guy who likes to plan it all out and enjoy the ride. The best way to accomplish this is to book a
Walt Disney World Resort Package coupled with a
Dining Plan. Let’s get started!
First, go to
DisneyWorld.com and sign in to your My Disney Experience account. Hover over “Places to Stay,” and click on “View all Accommodations.” From here, you can start to build your trip by providing the info for you and your party. Once you select the resort and room type that will best fit your needs, you can then select tickets.
If you want to include as much magic as possible in your all-inclusive trip, I’d suggest purchasing park hopper passes and adding a
Lightning Lane Multipass. This will give you and your party the best chance of experiencing all those must-do attractions at the Most Magical Place on Earth. Also, the
Disney World Dining Plan is a great way to pre-pay for your meals and skip the worry of paying in the moment. There are also potential savings, depending on where and how you use it, not to mention major savings for kids aged 3 to 9. If you stay at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel and purchase a dining plan for each guest in your party who is age 10 and up, the kids aged 3 to 9 get the dining plan for free!
While the specifics have not been announced, the
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival typically takes place from late August to mid-November, which means you’ll be able to experience some tasty magic during your time at EPCOT. This is my favorite festival by far! Can’t decide what type of food you feel like enjoying? Just take a few more steps around the
World Showcase to another one of the many Global Marketplaces. Check the
Disney Parks Blog closer to your travel date for the latest news on the Food & Wine Festival and so much more.
If you do end up going with the dining plan, all the pros save their snack credits and use them at the Global Marketplaces. Plan to visit EPCOT towards the end of the trip so you have some banked up, and be sure to use all your credits by midnight of the last day of your reservation.
Rodney, you’re in for a fantastic trip. If you have more questions that need answering, come right back to us at
