Deposit or pay in full Disney tickets

mike4scuba · 20 Dec 20, 01:39 PM

We are going In sept fingers crossed and have paid the deposit to reserve our Disney tickets

Now umming and arghing wether to pay them in full

If we pay them in full we can book which parks we intend to visit and try and get some planning done.

On the other hand would prefer to leave the money in the bank and see how things pan out

Not sure if the parks will be that busy in sept that I couldn't book nearer the time anyway

Depends when in September you are going. Beginning of the month will be a lot quieter than the end of the month going into October (WDW 50th..)
So far we have only booked 1 park day for our September/October trip and that is for the 1st Oct (MK obviously..). The rest we will do soon.

10th to the 26th but would be visiting Disney some days between 11th to 25th
Want to be in mk for our wedding anniversary on the 25th

I'm holding back at the moment as it is just a case of minimising the risk. Our 25th Anniversary is in June but as our Daughter has her exams then, we are holding off until the end of October to go.

However, if you really want to make sure you are in MK on your special date (and assuming you are happy to go even if the current restrictions are in place) then I would pay in full to ensure you get your park access and any restaurants booked as soon as you can.

It's not as if your money will gain any interest sitting in the bank these days!

Can I ask where you got this insurance?

I am worrying about booking park days and then having to cancel the trip. It�s a lot of money if cancelled.

That�s fab thank you. I was worried about booking Disney days then not being able to get a refund, but looks like that does not count as activating them.

Thank you
