Any vacation to a land of parades, flying elephants, and fairy tale princesses is sure to be a magical experience, but Walt Disney World is even more enjoyable when you know you got a great deal. Follow these steps for Disney savings, and your dreams of a magical vacation can come true…even without a fairy godmother.

1. Buy park tickets at your local AAA. Your savings start even before you ever leave home. Conveniently located throughout the region, AAA Travel and Insurance Centers sell discounted tickets to Disney’s Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom parks—exclusive savings only for AAA members.

2. Hit the road. Getting there is half the fun! You might save money by loading up the family car and driving to Orlando instead of flying the friendly skies. A AAA TripTik® can suggest the most effective route, AAA-approved hotels and restaurants, and the best gas prices along the way. Consider vacationing with friends to share fuel costs.

3. Stay at one of Disney’s Value Resorts. Guests at Disney’s All Star and Pop Century resorts enjoy all the benefits of staying on Disney property, like free transportation and extra hours in the parks. When you add on the new Quick Service Dining Plan to your reservation, you get easy and affordable meals during your entire vacation. Contact a AAA Travel Consultant for more information.
