It’s time. Get your next Disney trip on the schedule!
🏰 5 MISTAKES PEOPLE MAKE WHEN PLANNING A DISNEY WORLD VACATION! ✨
Some of these can cost you time, money, and a little Disney magic!
1. Assuming staying off-property is cheaper.
That hotel might have a lower nightly rate, but have you considered gas, parking, and transportation costs?
Disney Resort guests also get some GREAT perks:
• Complimentary Disney transportation
• Early theme park entry
• Lightning Lane booking 7 days in advance (vs. 3 for most off-property guests)
Sometimes staying IN the magic is worth it!
2. Not researching rides and attractions.
Every park has SO much to offer! Knowing which rides are must-dos, height requirements, and what your family will enjoy makes a HUGE difference.
My clients get recommendations and planning resources to help them prepare!
3. Thinking you can just wing it.
Listen, I LOVE a loose itinerary! I’m all about going with the flow and soaking up the magic.
BUT Disney is not a vacation you want to go into completely unprepared!
A little planning goes a LONG way, and I can help you create a flexible itinerary without feeling overwhelmed.
4. Not learning the My Disney Experience app.
Y’all, this app is your BEST FRIEND at Disney!
Wait times, park maps, tickets, Lightning Lanes, mobile ordering, PhotoPass pictures, and SO much more!
I send my clients an app guide BEFORE their trip so they can familiarize themselves with everything!
5. Not taking advantage of Disney’s Bounceback Offers!
Did you know eligible Disney Resort guests can book a FUTURE vacation with a special discount within 7 days of checkout?!
These offers have select dates and availability, but they can be a GREAT way to save on your next trip!
✨ BONUS MISTAKE: Not using a Disney travel agent!
When you book with me, you get help with the planning, recommendations, questions, and all those little details that make your vacation easier.
And my planning services are complimentary when you book with me!
