Hello there, Alyssa!
A warm welcome to planDisney. We're so glad you've decided to stop by with an excellent
Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question! It sounds like you're working on planning a holly jolly holiday getaway. I'd be happy to help make your very merry vacation dreams come true!
Alyssa, there's no place like the Walt Disney World Resort during the
holidays. I'm thrilled you'll have the chance to experience the stunning seasonal décor and joyful attraction overlays later this year! I reached out to a helpful Cast Member to inquire about what happens when a Guest adds a room-only
Disney Resort hotel reservation to their "cart" on the Walt Disney World Resort website. I was informed that, when a Guest has a reservation "on hold," but does not confirm the booking, their room-only reservation will be released after a three-day period.
I understand you're considering upgrading your room-only reservation plans to a vacation package, Alyssa. No worries! Room-only Resort hotel reservations can usually be upgraded to
vacation packages (including theme park tickets and dining plans), even after a booking has been confirmed. At this time, you should be able to modify your "held" room-only reservation on the Walt Disney World Resort website. Simply visit your
cart to view additional theme park ticket options and other eligible add-ons! If you'd prefer, you may also call the friendly Cast Members at the
Disney Resort Hotel Reservations phone line for assistance in modifying your reservation. Be sure to have your Cart ID number (found at the bottom of your "Cart" screen) handy so that the Cast Member can reference what's in your cart!
Alyssa, I hope this information helps you to plan a magical and memorable Walt Disney World Resort vacation. I'm wishing you a trip filled with wintertime wonder! If you have any additional vacation planning questions, you're always welcome to return to
planDisney. We're here to help you make the most of your time at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
Warm wishes,
Lauren
