First, Let’s Understand What a Disney World Discount in 2024 Entails

  • Save

Booking a Disney World discount offer in 2024 will always offer savings over standard pricing, but to take advantage of the money-saving opportunities, you need to understand how the promotions work.

Typically, there are 3 types of Disney World promotions offered: room only, ticket only or package promotions. The first is just what the name suggests – a discount on the cost of your hotel room.

However, there are some things to know about room-only discounts.

1.  Discounts are based on occupancy levels at Disney World resorts, so all hotels may not be available for the discount.

2.  Disney World Discounts are offered seasonally to cover certain dates of travel.

3.  Not all offers are available to the general public. Some will have certain eligibility standards, such as being a Disney+ subscriber.

In simplified terms, if the powers that be see that there is a surplus of rooms in a certain date range, they will issue a room only discount to entice travelers to book a reservation. Since discounts are meant to fill resorts where there are vacancies, a room-only resort discount may not be offered for all resorts during every offer.

Discounts are also applied differently across the three resort categories—Value, Moderate and Deluxe.  You’ll usually see the biggest discounts at Deluxe resorts and Deluxe Villas with the lowest discounts at Value resorts. Again, the best Disney World deals in 2024 are based on supply and demand, so where the demand is highest, you’ll see lower discounts.

To put this in perspective, a Disney World discount may drop the price of some deluxe resort stays by 20 percent. However, the same offer may only snip 10 percent off the cost of your value resort accommodations. With a stay at a moderate resort, you might save 15%.

It’s also important to note that only a certain number of rooms will be set aside for booking with any given Disney World deal. Under some circumstances, you may still be required to book a room at a resort by paying standard rates, if all room set aside for the discount have been booked. To get the discount, you may need to be flexible about where you stay. If you’re set on a particular resort, be sure to move fast and book within a day or two of the offer being released.

When it comes to Disney World discount packages, there are times when Disney will offer reduced rates on a combination of hotel accommodations and theme park tickets. Purchasing a package deal is usually the best way to book a Disney World vacation. For one thing, the deposit is usually less, but you can also take advantage of payment plans and flexible cancellation policies. Read our blog on Disney vacation packages to learn all of the ins and outs of package bookings at Disney World.

If you find that the selected Disney World discount is not available during your travel dates, and you have flexibility in your travel plans, try running a search for different dates.

If you can’t find full availability at a single resort using a discounted rate, you may be able to book a split stay. That means booking the same resort using two or three separate reservations to get the bulk of your travel covered by the discount.

For example, you can make one reservation using the discount for the first part of your stay, and book a separate using the discount for the last part of your stay.

Of course, this gets trickier when booking a package reservation, since ticket prices become less expensive per day the longer you stay. You’ll need to run multiple scenarios to see which option provides you with the best pricing.

If a split stay sounds like a lot of hassle, Disney does a great job of simplifying split bookings. If you notify the desk when you check in that you have more than one reservation, they will often make it possible for you to stay in the same room for both reservations.

In addition, by asking for online checkin on the subsequent reservations, you won’t have to go to the desk to check in again when the new reservation starts.

You can also consider splitting your stay across two or more different resorts. This is a great way to experience the magic of Disney in all its realms as each resort offers its own vibe and amenites.

Disney makes split stays across multiple resorts easy as well, by transfering your bags for you while you are out enjoying your daily activities. Simply drop them off at baggage check on your way to the parks. When you get to your new resort later that day, a quick call down to baggage check from your in-room phone will have them quickly delivered to your room.

Last, and most importantly, consider getting a quote from a Disney World travel professional. A travel agent who specializes in Disney travel can run different scenarios to find you the best options for your stay. Keep reading for more information on working with a travel agent on your Disney vacation planning.

Disney World Discounts the Easy Way – Let Someone Else Look for Discounts

For simplified booking, consider using a travel agent who specializes in Disney travel. You’ll get the same discounts offered through Disney online without the hassle of searching for available hotels or the best travel dates. Disney travel agents can look up pricing, provide you with a quote, and you’ll never pay more than you would booking directly through Disney.

Often, people fear that they will be required to pay a commission when working with a travel agent. This is simply not the case. Disney pays the commission to travel agencies on your hotel booking, allowing agents to book the same discounted rates you would find on the Disney website or by calling directly.

This provides travel agents who specialize in Disney with some added flexibility to combine discount reservations with concierge service. For example, we at Mickey World Travel, will go above and beyond making your hotel, ticket or package booking by also making dining reservations on your behalf. By working with a Disney World travel agent, you don’t have to get up at 5:30 am on the 60 day mark to make your ADRs, because someone else will do it for you.

Travel agents will also help you plan your days in the park, make better use of My Disney Experience and will be on call to answer any questions you might have. Best of all, they’ll continuously monitor Disney discounts as they are released and snag any newly released offers on your behalf.
