I know, I know…we’re all wondering about booking a trip to Disney World in 2026. Everything just got more expensive — Disney typically raises all kinds of prices on tickets, food and merch each October, and this year was no different. And while big things are on the way with FOUR NEW LANDS coming, right now we’re in the painful period of closures and construction walls that inevitably comes before the new stuff.
I’m always looking for a reason to book a trip, though, and right now — we’ve got one! I LOVE a good sale, and over my 7+ years of covering Disney’s theme parks, I don’t think I’ve seen quite this many Disney World discounts offered at the same time.
Scoring the Best Disney Discounts!
First off, let’s talk about HOW to get the best Disney discounts. The fact is, Disney is announcing discounts all the time, and through the years, we’ve developed some strategies for getting the best deal we can on our Disney trips.
- Make your reservations early — before your preferred dates and rooms sell out. Don’t worry about discounts if you reserve early — know that if a better rate comes along, you can rebook. (This is especially easy for you if you use a travel agent like Small World Vacations because they will monitor new discounts and apply the best one to your vacation. You can get a quote from them here.)
- Don’t ever pay the “rack rate” for a Disney World Hotel. There will always be some discount available. (We’re constantly updating them on our Disney Discounts and Deals page here.)
What are the latest and greatest Disney World discounts? Let’s check them out!

All these discounts are ridiculous!!! When, who, where, how???? Disney should just stop raising prices, especially with all the construction, and have fair prices for everyone all the time!!! It’s not fair that some get a deal while others don’t, just because some heard about it and others didn’t. Or because you’re not available to vacation when Disney decides the discounts are convenient to wdw! Jumping through all these hoops is just too much stress!!!!
