As an Authorized Disney vacation planner, here is what Mom Approved Travel wants you to know about why booking early is the best way to plan your 2026 Disney World trip…

• Resort availability is the absolute best on the day packages are released.
  If you have your heart set on a specific resort or room category, you’ll want to lock it in asap to ensure you get your preferred room type.
  Vacation packages for 2026 Walt Disney World trips released on April 22, 2025 for travel dates through October 31, 2026. November and December 2026 travel dates open throughout April and May 2025.
• Prices are the lowest on the day packages are released, and they go up from there, so the earlier you book, the better value you will get.
• Don’t wait for last-minute discounts, our experience is there is no such thing as a last-minute discount at Disney, especially with current demand! Disney promotions exist to fill unsold room and resort combinations.
• Ticket prices WILL increase each year (they always do), and the cost of other add-ons may too.

Mom Approved Tip: You should always book your Walt Disney World vacation as soon as possible to ensure the best pricing, resort and room availability.

We ensure the best value for your 2026 Disney trip. Don’t worry about making sure you have the best value, when you hire Mom Approved Travel to book your vacation, we will monitor your reservation for any applicable discounts and automatically apply them to ensure you get the most for your vacation dollars!

FAQ: What if Disney releases a discount and I already booked?
If a discounted offer becomes available in the future for your travel dates and resort, I will take care of adjusting your reservation to take advantage of the savings. So not only do you start with the lowest possible price, IF that price were to drop, I will have Disney adjust your reservation accordingly. You don’t have to do a thing, but sit back and know we have the best value for you and your family.

FAQ: Do I have to pay for my entire vacation upfront?
No!  Thankfully, all it takes is a $200 deposit per reservation to lock in your pricing.
The remaining balance isn’t due until 30 days before you are scheduled to arrive. Your deposit is even completely refundable if you cancel before your final payment is due.
