Give the Gift of Disney For the Holidays
This time of year comes every year and many people start thinking about the gift-giving season that lies ahead.
Many people start filling their closets and attics with gifts to put under the tree. Others wait and make the last minute run to the mall in search of the perfect gift. Some have even had presents shopped and wrapped for months!
This year my family is doing something new and Disney is making it very easy for others to do the same. Instead of wrapping up a bunch of toys that will soon be forgotten or lost in the nooks of the playroom, we are giving the gift of Disney to our family.
Over the years, we have come to realize that gifting “experiences” has been far more rewarding and memorable than any toy. So rather than a room filled with trinkets, we will be sailing with the Disney Cruise Line.
Disney has made it that much easier to give the gift of Disney this year. From Annual Passes and Resort stays to Disney-themed gifts for reveals, there is something for every budget. If none of these spark your fancy, you can’t go wrong with a Disney Gift Card.
Annual Passes
If the ultimate Disney-goer in your life is in need of a gift, consider slipping an Annual Pass under the tree. The AP lasts the whole year long and includes the following:
- Access to multiple parks on the same day
- Discounts on select merchandise, dining and more
- Special offers for stays at Disney World resorts
- Invites to Passholder events
- A MagicBand
There are a few different Annual Passes, so be sure to explore the different options. Some include Water Park visits and some have block-out dates.
Theme Park Tickets
If the Annual Pass isn’t quite what you’re looking for, there are a whole slew of theme park tickets to choose from. You can select from:
- 1-10 day tickets
- 1-day, 3-day, and 4-day Florida resident tickets
