This. Disney is a unique trip. It’s really helpful to use one of the travel agents. We went years ago and had a great time, only because we used an agent who knew what she was doing. And I definitely didn’t!

Why would you book through Expedia? You are giving up 98% of any possible protection/recourse.

I’m one of the other Disney thread owners. Go to the Disney site and also download the app.

Is it cheaper to book through Disney? What perks will I possibly get?

I've never booked through Expedia and don't know how it would work with a place like Disney. When you book through disney, you create an account with disney. That is then the account that you use to add tickets, dining reservations, lightening lanes tickets, special tickets (like to limited ticket entry events), etc. If your hotel booking is not through your Disney account, you will not get priority to book early for things like lightening lanes. Maybe if you go through a third party, there is a way to add to your disney account afterwards...I don't know. But I super don't trust expedia, so never use it.

There is this amazing new tool on the internet where you can easily find answers to questions like this.

If you go through the Costco travel site it routes you to the official Disney site with discounts applied.

Book through Disney to get all the perks.

Never book through Expedia. Seriously.

Go on the Disney website. And just book through Disney.

Just book through Disney.

I can't tell by looking at Expedia. If I book through Costco, how can I tell? Is there a list of Walt Disney world resort list? Any advantages of booking at ptrr hotels vs Walt Disney world resorts?
