Disney World Free Ticket Offer for Much of 2021

DISNEY WORLD OFFERS TWO FREE TICKET DAYS FOR MUCH OF 2021

Walt Disney World has a “two free ticket days” deal available that can be booked beginning January 5, 2021, covering arrivals many nights between January 8, and September 25th, 2021.

The deal requires a regular-priced stay in one of Disney World’s hotels. While it is marketed (for example here) as adding two days to a three day ticket on a four night stay, two days of free tickets are also available for longer stays.

Given how Disney World prices multi-day tickets, however, the highest savings are on shorter tickets. For example, at current 2021 ticket prices, two free days are worth between $107 and $153 each if you get two free tickets on top of a starting three day ticket, but are worth only (on average during the period) $30-55 each for longer ticket lengths.

There’s more on this deal here.

Once January 5th rolls around, you can book it directly from Disney, or the long-time travel agent partner of this site, Kelly, can book it for you. Kelly can compare it to other deals that might be available for you and suggest the best one. Contact Kelly using the form below.

New Disney World Deal for into December 2020

Disney World announced a new deal a few days ago that basically represents $25/night off at certain value resorts, $62.50/night off at certain moderate resorts, and $125/night off at certain deluxe and DVC resorts. You also save the associated taxes.

The new Disney World deal covers “most nights” through December 25th, and needs to be booked by December 25th.

Not all Disney resorts or room types are in the deal—some because of demand, and others because they remain closed.

Disney’s page on this deal is here. Disney is promoting this as “save up to $500,” but that would be for four nights in a deluxe or DVC resort. Other stay lengths and other resorts will yield different savings.

Other deals came out at the same time. The best way to sort them out for your specific circumstances is to work through a travel agent, who will get you the best price.

Disney World announced a new room rate deal a few days ago that basically represents up to 20% off per night at certain value resorts, up to 25% off per night at certain moderate resorts, and up to 30% off per night at certain deluxe and DVC resorts.

The new Disney World deal covers “most nights” through December 25th, and needs to be booked by December 25th.

The catch is that only residents of a set of southeastern states—Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia—are eligible for this deal. (Residency is validated at check-in by credit card billing address.)

Not all Disney resorts or room types are in the deal—some because of demand, and others because they remain closed.

Disney’s page on this deal is here.

Other deals came out at the same time. The best way to sort them out for your specific circumstances is to work through a travel agent, who will get you the best price.
