For vacationers, a trip to Disney World is always exciting, but now Disney has an exciting new option for you with vacation packages. This is the best time to go since these packages are much more affordable than in the past.
Disney each year creates packages to suite every family. For example, the “Magic Your Way Vacation Package” they developed one year was the most affordable and included accommodations at the Disney Resort! The Magic Your Way Base Ticket granted entrance to one theme park per day and could be upgradeable to a park hopper ticket.
Some years, when you book online you get a Disney Photopass too! A Disney Photopass will have a professional photographer snap a 5 x 7 photo of you and your fellow vacationers, that you get to take home and enjoy. Other goodies that you can qualify for by purchasing online rather than over the phone or in person, include a meal voucher for an entree and non-alcoholic beverage from a select menu for Planet Hollywood Dining and Merchandise. Planet Hollywood Dining usually includes a magician walking around performing magic tricks.
The next level up in vacation packages will add a dining meal plan to your park tickets and lodging. At participating Walt Disney World restaurants you will receive one table service meal with an appetizer, entree, dessert, and non-alcoholic beverage! Or at Walt Disney World restaurants that don’t have table service, you would receive one counter service meal with entree, dessert and non-alcoholic beverage, and one snack. One of the fun restaurants in the area is located right next to the Houdini Magic Shop and caters to kids of all ages.
Disney’s Magic Your Way Premium Package is the fancier, deluxe package aimed at entertaining the entire family with just about everything included: hotel accommodations, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and unlimited access to golf, miniature golf, water sports and other recreations. As an added bonus to purchasers of the deluxe package, Walt Disney World will add-on bonus tickets to a major park event or tour like Cirque du Soleil. Any children from four to twelve years old in your group can also enjoy the Disney Children Activity Center.
The most grandeous package of all is Walt Disney’s Magic Your Way Platinum Package.In addition to the benefits of the previous package which included hotel stay, breakfast, lunch, dinner, recreation, and a bonus ticket to a special event, you also receive a spa treatment, private golf lessons, a reserved seat to the exciting magic tricks fireworks show Fantasmic! unlimited childcare in the Child Activity Centers, a ride on the Fireworks Cruise, itinerary planning services, in-room child care, the Platinum Plan keepsake, and turndown service. If you have the money, this package will transform any normal Disney vacation into a fantastic one!
Looking to travel to Walt Disney World with a large group of people?Then you’re looking for Grand Gatherings, which offers exclusive bonuses for large groups that small groups simply can not enjoy like the International Dinner and Illuminations Desert Reception, Safari Celebration Dinner, Good Morning Gathering, and Magical Fireworks Voyage.
All in all, an important thing to know is that standard full-price Disney vacation packages are convenient, but Disney never really offers bargain prices. For the best deal, Disney World packages should be purchased through Walt Disney Travel Company.
