FEATURE PLANNING TIPS TO WALT DISNEY WORLD THEME PARKS

Prepare for the adventure of a lifetime at Disney World with these essential tips for success!

Who would have thought in this day or age, that expensive family destinations like Walt Disney World or Walt Disney Land, Universal Studios too could quickly undo any joy there was to be had by not planning for the destinations as well. We’re not talking about the stress of gathering the family, or the high prices that come with visiting these theme parks. We are talking about the overwhelming feeling of once arriving on property to only then learn, for example Disney has its own nomenclature, its own language.

So much is the overwhelming factor over taking guests to these theme parks, visitors are taking classes on “Walt Disney World” prior to boarding a plane. The complicated system that Disney World functions upon has left many unprepared travelers with the let down feeling and regretting having done the trip, as learning the Disney lingo and landscape can almost feel monumental instead of “Magical”. Today we are tackling tips to survive Disney World located in Orlando, Florida. WHAT CONSISTS OF WALT DISNEY WORLD
First thing to know about Walt Disney World is it is made up of four main parks, but then there are also the Disney Water Parks too. The four Walt Disney World Parks are Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and Epcot. Disney World is not meant to be seen in ONE day. Instead, it is highly recommended to enjoy it over several days if time and money allows. This means visiting one Disney Park per day and even reserving a day in between for rest around the pool or some down time.

If you have never traveled to Disney World and are going with a group that includes children, we suggest booking through a trusted travel agent and one that offers travel insurance or through Disney’s booking agents and inquiring about their travel insurance. Reason being is that depending on your party size, age and the cost; peace of mind knowing that at the last minute your trip might be canceled or cut short, all the money is not lost. If booking thru Disney World or a travel agent, be sure to ask if there are any special offers, for example there are discounts for US military, and often the longer you stay the cheaper the daily passes and/or hotels may become. HOW TO EFFECTIVELY PLAN FOR DISNEY WORLD How to navigate Walt Disney World, the Magic Kingdom, effectively before your vacation can greatly enhance your experience? Here's how:

Research Parks and Attractions: Get acquainted with the layout of Disney's parks and explore the array of attractions they offer. Explore the different themes and pinpoint the ones that capture your interest the most.

Craft a Detailed Schedule: Strategize your itinerary by planning which parks you want to visit each day of your vacation. Consider factors such as park hours, crowd levels, and special events to optimize your time.

Secure Advanced Reservations: Don't miss out on popular dining experiences or character meet-and-greets—reserve them well in advance. This ensures you lock in coveted options and avoid disappointment. Take time to understand Disney Genie+ as it is an essential tool. Walt Disney World now operates off the My Disney Experience App.

Familiarize Yourself with Park Maps: Study Disney's park maps to pinpoint the locations of attractions, dining spots, restrooms, and first aid stations. This knowledge will streamline your navigation once you're on-site.

Leverage the My Disney Experience App: This indispensable tool provides real-time updates on wait times, show schedules, dining reservations, and interactive park maps. Download it to streamline your Disney World adventure.

Maximize Lightning Pass Benefits: Understand the Genie+ system and make your selections early for popular attractions. This allows you to bypass regular lines and enjoy more rides and shows during your visit.

Stay Informed About Park Hours and Extra Magic Hours: Stay updated on park operating hours and take advantage of Extra Magic Hours available to Disney resort guests. These special hours offer exclusive access to attractions with fewer crowds.

Pack Smart: Bring along essential items like comfortable clothing, sunscreen, hats, snacks, and refillable water bottles to stay energized throughout the day. Packing a portable phone charger for uninterrupted communication is essential.

Embrace Flexibility: While it's crucial to have a plan, remain adaptable to unforeseen changes or delays. Walt Disney World can be bustling and unpredictable, so embrace the magic and savor every moment of your vacation! OTHER NEWS IRS WHISTLEBLOWER PROGRAM PAYS
