An entire industry of “Disney hacks” has emerged on social media in recent years, with influencers detailing how to navigate the intricate web of deals and strategies you can utilize to save money on your Disney vacation. You can even enroll in online classes regarding Disney vacations, if you so wish.
However, Disney, often criticized for its expensive ticket prices, is making a focused effort to introduce simplicity to its park offerings so visitors can learn how to travel on a budget without requiring an advanced understanding of Disney World.
For instance, Disney on Monday revealed complimentary dining plans for three-night Walt Disney World guests who purchase a Park Hopper ticket and arrive between May 27 and June 26 or July 7 through August 6. Dining plans provide ticketholders a few meals, a snack, and a refillable mug for each night of their visit — meaning one less item to organize and be concerned about. They are typically available as an additional purchase.
Disney World had previously disclosed other cost-saving benefits, including free parking at resorts (it used to charge, much to the frustration of visitors). Moreover, Disney has intensified its focus on its app experience, which offers guests a clearer understanding of expected wait times in the park's famously long lines.
