Save dollars at Disney World
A Walt Disney World vacation is a rite of passage for many families, but it also can be an expensive trip. To keep costs down, stay at a Disney World property. Here's why:
Better rates. Disney is offering its value properties from $68 per night and moderate hotels at $129 on weeknights.
Transportation. Resort guests get free airport transfers and can take advantage of free bus, water taxi and monorail transportation between the parks and the hotels. That means there's no need to rent a car on your trip.
Meals. Only guests at Disney properties have the option of purchasing a meal plan, which Disney claims can save you up to 30% over a la carte pricing.
Extra hours. Disney guests are entitled to early or late admission to certain parks on certain days. That can mean avoiding the long lines for Spaceship Earth or Pirates of the Caribbean. Before you book your trip, visit Disney's website to take advantage of any other timely Disney deals.
