How do I become a Disney World Travel Agent?

Were planning to go to walt disney world for a few days , should we get a travel agent or should we go thru on?

  • agent or should we go through one of those internet sites like hotwire for the best and cheapest deal

  • Answer:

    For Disney, I'd definitely recommend a Disney specialist travel agent (there are TONS of them). Disney World is kind of overwhelming for most people and a Disney specialist can really help make sure you get the most out of the considerable number of dollars you will spend on your vacation there. These folks are typically Disney fanatics themselves and they know all the ins and outs of how to maximize your fun. You won't pay any more and you'll get a lot of free inside advice that you certainly won't get from Hotwire or even from Disney's operators (whose job after all is to maximize Disney's income).

If you're staying inside Disney, at one of their hotels, I'd go through Disney's website. It's much easier to price your package and you're not going to get a better deal on another website. BTW, Disney hotels can save you money, even if they charge more up front. If you're flying from out of town and only want to visit Disney World, you can use their transportation and possibly get by without a car. Even if you have/rent a car, you won't have to pay parking fees ($14 per day.) You can get the dining plan, which may or may not save you money depending on your circumstances. If you're not staying in Disney, hotwire and that stuff works fine. But if you've never been to Orlando, I suggest at least skimming through a guidebook. A travel agent knows a h3ll of a lot more about Orlando than the typical tourist and paying for their services would often save a bunch of hassle. Access to the internet has convinced everyone they are instant experts and that doesn't always turn out too well.

I always prefer to call Disney at 407-w-disney to make all the arrangements myself. For some of their best deals look on their website for special discounts on certain dates of the year. At times you can get free dining or 30% discount on the room. Keep in mind that if you plan on visiting the theme parks more than five days, the park pass will cost about five dollars more per person per day on the sixth day onward.

There isn't any really easy answer. It kind of depends on a lot of variables. I will tell you that hotwire does not always have the cheapest rates/deals, even if you are not using a travel agent. I'd check out the sources below to see how things fit for you.

Ask"WhyNot?"

Don't bother with a travel agent. Use Disney's website to check out resort rates, ticket prices, dining plan prices and costs of any extra experiences you might want to do. Decide which options are best for you and call Disney to book your vacation.

go to the disney site - they have prices as good as most and staying on a disney property is my top recommendation - you get extra time in the park, great transportation AND the ability to hop back and forth.
