Is it not everybody's dream to go to Disneyland and pose with Mickey?
As they, Christmas is really for the kids, and those who are kids at heart. (Guilty of that!) And one of the top hotspots at this time of the year for the young at heart is the infamous Disneyland.
Childhood escapade
My mom took me there when I was 8 years old. Old enough to remember the trip but still young enough to be obedient to not let go of her hand so I won't be lost in the crowd. Went there after Thanksgiving. Disneyland was like a real-life child's dreamland. Back then,I felt it was larger than life, like a big and wide playground with all the castles and rides and that the cartoon characters were my playmates.
Tipoffs
Not only are airfares costly these days, more so if you're thinking of going to Disneyland outside U.S. Airfares don't come in a few bucks especially if you have a couple of kids to take with you. Also, you have to allot for souvenirs, food and and as well as hotel accommodations. Here are money saving tips to make your trip to the big D hassle-free and budget-friendly.
1. Take advantage of their vacation packages
Disneyland's vacation packages offer a great ease to the stress of how can you actually go to Disneyland. All you need is fill out their online booking form.
2. Plan ahead
Now, operative word here is ahead. A month is a safe time frame. This gives you time to make the necessary arrangements, like for you to file a leave at work or at school for your kids, or to let your relatives know of your vacation. This gives time to also make adjustments for your monthly payments such as mortgage, electricity, and home bills and
your credit card bills. Ultimately, this will give you time to save money for the most-awaited trip.
3. Call your travel agent, early
This makes sense if you're unsure of how to navigate Disneyland's online booking site. Again, a month's time is the safest.
4. Go with the rush
They have lower rates during peak seasons. I know reverse psychology tells us to go off-season. But in this case, the Disneyland amusement parks and the partner hotels do offer more affordable rates, more so for families and big groups during peak season. Just take note of the one month's notice.
Money well spent
After all the fuss, every dollar that you'll be spending will be worth it. Your kids will not be the only ones who'll be having the time of their lives but you'll enjoy the most as well. You'll wear the mickey hats and scream at the rides. Most of all, with these money saving tips, you'll not worry of an empty wallet after going to the place dubbed as the happiest place on earth.
