Planning Your First Walt Disney World Visit By the Numbers!

[pinit]
This site exists to help first-time visitors to Walt Disney World make great decisions quickly.

The heart of it is the home page, which raises all the key questions–some of which you may not have even known about!–and answers them.

Everything here is ranked and rated–weeks, hotels, crowds, dining, prices —everything.

You won’t find wishy-washy “on the one hand, on the other hand” stuff unless you go deep into the site looking for it.

And everything is backed up by direct experience, by analysis, and by numbers.

So I thought it would be fun to bring all the key numbers to one simple infographic!

See (and share!) the image–all the numbers on it are explained below!

• 180 Days–how far in advance Disney’s restaurants are available for booking–and when some of them sell out!
• 60 Days–how long before your arrival you can do on-line check-in, and start scheduling FastPass+
• 8 Nights–How many nights you should stay to allow for theme park visits, naps, swimming, and breaks
• 6 Days–How many days you should devote to the four Disney World theme parks–2+ at the Magic Kingdom, <2 at Epcot, and one each at Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom
• 8 Years Old–if this may be their only childhood visit, about how old your youngest child should be when you visit
• 2 Times as Expensive–how much more hotels will cost if you go at the wrong time
• 3 Times as Long–how much longer you will wait in line if you go at the wrong time
• More than 35–distinct major room variants among the 25+ Disney World hotels–I’ve recently stayed in and reviewed them all
• More than 50— “Table Service” restaurants at Disney World parks and resorts to choose from–all picked for your family!
• 4-5 People–capacity of most Disney World hotel rooms–larger families, see this
• >$5,000–minimum budget for an 8 night Disney World trip for a family of four
• 25-40% Off–what you can save (especially on hotels) from time to time using various Disney World special offers
• Dozens of Hours, and Thousands of Dollars–Time and money you can save by following this site’s instructions!

And…More than 5 Million–one last number, not shown on the infographic: how many people this site has helped so far!
