Magic Your Way Packages
Recent research has shown that families
want longer vacations, and yet a significant gap remains between the
vacation length that families want - seven or more nights - and the
vacation they typically take - less than four nights. Forty-three
percent of those surveyed recently by Yesawich, Pepperdine, Brown &
Russell suggested cost was the primary reason they elected to take
the shorter excursion.
The Walt Disney World Resort has announced a new lineup of vacation options that address
that desire for longer vacations by focusing on three important
guest considerations - affordability, flexibility and more rewarding
vacations. New Disney's Magic Your Way Vacations feature a
menu of ticket and vacation package options, including a new dining
package, that allow guests to customize their Walt Disney World
vacation. With this new product, a family of four can enjoy a
weeklong vacation - staying at a great on-property Disney Value
Resort with tickets to all four theme parks - for less than $1,500.
With the flexibility of adding the Park Hopper Option or water
park visits to theme park tickets or selecting a vacation package
that includes meals, Disney's Magic Your Way Vacations put
guests in control of designing the vacation that best suits them.
In addition to considerable savings, the
desire for longer vacations can also result in increased commission
opportunities for travel agents. This new ticket pricing structure
puts a weeklong vacation within the financial reach of millions more
families, literally growing the market of Disney fans that can
benefit from a travel agent's services. It also allows guests to
enjoy the resort at a more relaxed pace, have a better experience,
as well as increase their likelihood of returning and recommending a
similar vacation to others.

are the tangible benefits of the new lineup of 2005 Magic Your
Way vacation packages.

Resort Benefits
There are more great reasons than ever to
book Walt Disney World
Resort hotels for your guests. These resort benefits make a Walt
Disney World vacation
more fun, relaxing and worry-free than ever, and allow guests to
enjoy longer stays at Disney properties – providing more time in the
parks and a better opportunity to enjoy the Vacation Kingdom’s great
resort hotels.
Enhanced! Extra Magic Hours
In 2005, guests staying at Walt Disney
World Resort hotels can
enjoy more time in the theme parks with the enhanced Extra Magic
Hours benefit. Each day, one of the theme parks opens an hour early,
or, as a new feature, stays open up to three hours extra after
regular park hours. This benefit allows guests to pace themselves
and more time to enjoy shorter lines during these extended theme
park hours. Valid Theme Park admission and Walt Disney World
Resort ID are required.
Close to the Magic
Staying at a Disney Resort means being
surrounded by magic 24 hours a day, and also being close enough to
hop back to the hotel for a snack, nap or dip in the pool.
Complimentary Transportation
Guests can use the Walt Disney World
transportation system of buses, monorails and water launches
available to them -- at no additional charge. The service transports
guests to and from the theme parks, water parks, the Downtown
Disney area and more.
For guests with a passion for golf, special
door-to-door transportation is available between Walt Disney
World
owned-and-operated hotels and Walt Disney World
golf facilities.

check their bags at their hometown airport, bypass baggage claim at Orlando International Airport

appear in their room upon check in. The round-trip service, which is available and complimentary during
Disney's Happiest Celebration on Earth event (which also begins May 5, 2005), is designed to give Disney
hotel guests the stress-free vacation they want. With Disney's Magical Express service, a family of four
