Is Disney World Currently Offering Any Summer Discounts?

March 27, 2017

Q: I heard that Disney has released Summer discounts. Is this true?

A: Yes! Its been a busy day for discounts as Disney has released 3 offers for those visiting the parks this Summer. Here’s a rundown of the discounts released today (March 27, 2017).

Summer Room Offer – This is the base offer, the primary component of all of the discounts released today. This is available to “Room Only” bookers as well as guests that have booked a Walt Disney World vacation package. Here are the details:

Guests staying at a Walt Disney World Resort can save up to 25% off of select rooms at select resorts
Must be visit Disney World between May 28th – August 31st 2017
The booking window officially opened March 27, 2017 and will run until July 14, 2017.

Guests should note the number of rooms falling under this offer are limited. Length of stay requirements may apply. Savings based on the non-discounted price for the same room. The offer excludes 3 bedroom villas, campsites, Bungalows at Disney’s Polynesian Villas and Bungalows and Disney Art of Animation Resort – The Little Mermaid Rooms.

Family Magic Summer Package – This package has at its base the room discount package outlined above so the savings will be roughly the same. However, Disney has packaged the discount nicely with park tickets. Here are the details:

4-night stay in a standard room at select Disney’s All Star Resorts with 4-day Magic Your Way base tickets for as low as $1962 based on a family of 4.
Offer available most stays Sunday through Thursday nights for travel dates between June 11 – August 31, 2017
Booking window officially opened March 27, 2017 and will run until July 14, 2017.

Readers should note that the rates are based on 2 adults, 1 junior (ages 10 – 17) and 1 child (ages 3-9). The number of packages available at this rate is limited with savings based on a non-discounted price of the same package. Guests will find that the same resort exclusions apply as those listed as part of the 25% room offer.

Kid-Size Summer Vacation Package- Similarly to the Family Magic Package, the base discount is that off the Summer Room Offer. This package also includes a resort stay and park tickets. The details are as follows:

3-night stay in a standard room at a select Disney All Star Resort with a 2-day Magic Your Way base ticket for as low as $993
Offer available for most stays Sunday through Thursday nights from June 11 – August 31, 2017.
Booking window officially opened March 27, 2017 and will rung until July 14, 2017.

The prices highlighted in this offer are based on 2 adults and 1 child (3-9). The number of packages available at this rate is limited with savings based on a non-discounted price for the same packages. Guests will find that the same resort exclusions apply as those listed as part of the 25% room offer.

I’ve already booked my Walt Disney World Vacation Package. Can I still get the discount? – Yes. Though its definitely worth investigating whether its the best value for money. For instance guests staying at a Value Resort that booked before the ticket prices went up last month will find that the packages actually may end up costing them more. Additionally, due to limited availability guests may be required to upgrade their room category to qualify for the discount which will also make the discounted package more expensive than the original booking.

I already have a discount under a previous promotion. Can I provide the discount I already have with the room discount? No. Disney only allows one discount to be applied at a time.

For the vacation packages, do I have to stay at an All Star Resort or are other resorts available? When Disney releases these package offers it can be a bit confusing. Disney gives the All Star Resorts as an example, but discounted rates are available to book at other resorts. The costs will come out the same as the 25% room discount, one discount whether its the standard package or a vacation package is unlikely to provide you with greater savings over another discount.

With the opening of Pandora – The World of Avatar at Animal Kingdom on May 27th, this is definitely the Summer to be at Disney. Get a jump start on your vacation plans by fill out or form below to receive your FREE quote.
