Hello Disney fans! You might recall a while ago I asked for advice on all things Disneyland so I could impress my niece and her family and retain my status as the best aunt ever :) The advice offered was incredibly valuable! I can’t thank you all enough. There were so many great tips and tricks I decided to go through it all, organize it, and create a sort of Disneyland playbook for TWG readers. I’ve organized it according to certain categories - I hope you like it!
To Do List:
Download the Disney app for wait times on rides. The Mousewait app also does the same function.
Set up your Disney Vacation Account (DVA):
It has to be active 120 days in order to receive the best perk, which is a $20 gift card for every $1,000 in spend.
Buy Disney gift cards and load them onto your DVA account. YMMV but sometimes gift cards can be bought at Target with the Red Card for 5% savings. When you load gift cards into your DVA account, you can then buy Disney tickets online.
Using your DVA account makes everything easier because you don’t have to carry around individual gift cards and swipe each one to use them.
With your DVA you can pay for ANYTHING Disney.
Watch for AMEX offers at places that sell Disney gift cards.
