Hi all! I'm planning to take advantage of the three day Disney + Perks deal but I'm not quite ready to buy tickets. Does anybody happen to know if there's a deadline to book the deal? I understand travel dates are through 5/22. Thanks in advance!

Perfect!

Do the Disney+ tickets include Magic Kingdom?
12:05am by
It is only AK, HS, and EP. MK is not included in the ticket.

If I already have AOA booked this summer and the discount comes out tomorrow, do I need to call Disney to apply it or is there a way to do it online?
9:53pm on 1/5/26 by
You can modify online starting at 6:00 am Eastern

When Disney drops new deals, what time does that happen? Is it midnight or is it 6 AM or a different time?
1:15pm on 1/5/26 by
That is 6th
6:35pm on 1/5/26 by
I do now lol I'm a little late to the party. But yes thank you
6:52pm on 1/5/26 by
I called Disney this afternoon and asked. They told me that online it is 6 AM Eastern time. The phones open at 7 AM Eastern time The cast member seemed pretty sure about that, does anyone else have any thoughts?

A few weeks ago my DH and I celebrated life in WDW not knowing what was ahead. Tomorrow morning he will hv a quadruple open heart surgery. Totally unexpected. Please pray that all will be well. We definitely need Pixie Dust...

What a great update. The spring is such great weather too.

My DH55 had unexpected open heart surgery in Sept. Altho his recovery has had many speedbumps, I am praying yours goes well! It's amazing how quickly they get them up and walking with all of those tubes, etc. Keep the good news coming!
12:54pm on 1/3/26 by
@vmorrison-just checking in on your DH (and you!). Hoping some tubes have started coming out and he is making his laps around the unit. Know how busy things are but wanted you to know we are still sending pixie dust your way!

Hi all, if I buy an AP now for my summer trip, do I have to activate it before I can get room discounts? So I would have to book the summer trip without the AP discount? But subsequent trips I could get the AP discount?
3:57pm on 1/4/26 by
FYI, I've never had to show my AP when checking in, either. You can check in online like you normally would, regardless of AP discount.
8:23am on 1/5/26 by
I had to show my AP at swan but they have in person check in.
10:43am on 1/5/26 by
Thank you!

Liner opinion: taking quicksilver to MCO - 6 people, 2 will be in car seats. We all have TSA precheck. Flight is 8:10 - is 5:45 departure from BCV reasonable? All we need is time for a bathroom break before boarding. I always allot more time than needed

We've done instacart and Publix many times without issue, I was just trying to do the math to see if we save on delivery fee/tip by doing pickup. Oddly enough it does not appear that Publix allows direct orders, they make you go through IC which is more $
12:33pm on 1/5/26 by
Regardless we will NOT use quicksilver.
8:22pm on 1/5/26 by
Yep, @blast: Pickup orders from Publix go through Instacart in the Publix pickup/delivery app. Costs are higher there than in the store, by a good bit. I used it regularly in 2020, but couldn't justify it after a while.

"What's cookin'?" Homemade chili topped with Mexican cheese and served with crescent rolls. Dessert will be strudel. What are your Monday dinner plans?
4:44pm on 1/5/26 by
Beef souvlaki

Dinner at Biergarten
7:32pm on 1/5/26 by
Chick-fil-A after a stressful return to work today! Re-entry trauma is real.
8:26pm on 1/5/26 by
If I have upcoming tickets from Attraction Tickets, would I be able to covert those to an AP? Is that done on site or can it be over the phone once tix are linked? Not sure if those tix work differently. As an aside, they have a 25% off promo right now.
5:28pm on 1/5/26 by
They can upgrade discounted tickets, but you will only receive the value you paid. Also, if your tickets are a special type of ticket, such as inclusive of water parks or whatnot, you can only upgrade to an AP with those perks.
5:45pm on 1/5/26 by
You can do it beforehand once your tickets are linked, or any time up until tapping in for the last day of your ticket.
5:45pm on 1/5/26 by
Thank you @utang! I didn't realize the "extras" part. Ugh. These tix have a lot of extras that I wouldn't really need going forward in an AP. Also, a clarification on the promo...it's "up to" 25% off. ;)
6:44pm on 1/5/26 by
Yeah, I didn't know until I was up to my elbows in upgrading our conference tickets to APs last year. I just decided to roll with it, and thankfully, some of my cost was offset by them converting my MM purchase into having it for the year on my AP.

Wondering how LLMP/SP will be affected when BTMRR opens! Guessing it won't open till regular park open and will be on MP as it was before...but now there will be Tiana's AND BTMRR that will be the hot ticket this summer!
6:20pm on 1/5/26 by
I'm also wondering if they will allow Tiana's and BTMRR to be open for EE? I can't remember...was it open for EE in the past? I'd love to RD those rides!
6:21pm on 1/5/26 by
No. Typically only Fantasyland and Tomorrowland are open for EE.
6:26pm on 1/5/26 by
Tiana's and BTMR have been open together for a while. Neither is ever open for EE.
