Picking the Best Package

Fest of the Arts Menus https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2023/01/disney-eats-foodie-guide-to-the-2023-epcot-international-festival-of-the-arts-presented-by-att/

Here are the different types of packages

1. Room and tickets separate, you would only need this is you have an annual pass or maybe are a florida resident using a florida resident ticket
2. Room and ticket together. This is a great option because it’s only a $200 deposit with the balance due 30 days out from your trip. And if you have a Disney Visa card this package is 0% interest for 6 months.

Here are the questions you need to ask yourself when thinking about your trip.

1. General budget, Disney is expensive, so what is your vacation budget that you are willing to spend?
2. How many days do you want to go?
3. Is a better room or more park days more important?
4. Do you need a down day?
5. Do you want to be able to visit more than one park a day? If you are going August through late December having a park hopper is a must.
6. What are your non-negotiables?

Based on touring plans research people who spend up to stay in a nicer room tend to have better overall experiences.

Let’s now talk about the current deals released January 5.

Room discounts most nights.

March 1-31, up to 20 % off

April 1-July 10, up to 25%
