Now is the time for making memories!

The news that we’ve all been waiting for; 2018 Disney World Package Prices have been released.  If you’ve been thinking about planning that magical trip in 2018, now is the time to contact me and see how I can help make your dreams come true.

You can now book your trip beginning January 1st, 2018 through October 31st, 2018.  Disney will only allow bookings 499 days out.  By August 19th, 2017 you will be able to book that magical vacation through December 31st, 2018.  Along with the release of the vacation packages I’ve also learned about the new information for the Dining Packages.  There is some good news but depends on what you are looking for in the dining package.

We all expected a price increase but with the increase came some good news for those who like those “specialty” drinks.  Here is a quick overview of the dining plans that Disney is offering for 2018:

Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan:

• 2 quick-service meals per person, per night
• 2 snacks per person, per night
• 1 drink mug per person, refillable at any quick-service restaurant at your Disney Resort hotel
• New for 2018 vacation packages!! Beverages that are part of meal entitlements include non-alcoholic specialty beverages and, for Guests 21 and older, alcoholic beverages

Disney Dining Plan:

• 1 quick-service meal per person, per night
• 1 table-service meal per person, per night
• 2 snacks per person, per night
• 1 drink mug per person, refillable at any quick-service restaurant at your Disney Resort hotel
• New for 2018 vacation packages!! Beverages that are part of meal entitlements include non-alcoholic specialty beverages and, for Guests 21 and older, alcoholic beverages

Disney Deluxe Dining Plan:

• 3 meals (quick-service or table-service) per person, per night
• 2 snacks per person, per night
• 1 drink mug per person, refillable at any quick-service restaurant at your Disney Resort hotel
• New for 2018 vacation packages!! Beverages that are part of meal entitlements include non-alcoholic specialty beverages and, for Guests 21 and older, alcoholic beverages

Due to the increase in overall cost for food in Disney World the cost for the dining plans have also risen.  Quick-Service Dining Plan will now cost you $52.49 (was $48.19), Dining Plan is $75.49 (was $69.35), and Deluxe Dining Plan is $116.24 (was 106.68) The costs is per person, per night.  If you are one who likes those specialty drinks, or would prefer an alcoholic beverage with your meal, then the price increase will probably not affect you.  If you are one who doesn’t prefer those things and feels this increase is only hurting your purchase price, remember that all the costs for Disney food is rising.  As always, the dining plan is optional and depends on how much food you and/or your family will consume on a vacation.  If you are interested in a vacation to Disney World I will show you how to tell if the dining plan is a good addition for you and your family.  I will also show you how you can maximize your cost so that you aren’t losing any money when purchasing the dining plan.  Adding on the dining plan may or may not be best for your vacation package, but I will help you to determine the best value for your money.

I’m excited to share with you how fun and exciting a vacation to Disney World can be.  Let me help you plan a magical vacation to Disney World in 2018.
