Disney has offered military discounts for quite some time, but many people are still unaware that they exist. The details are generally released in September for travel in the following year. There are also discounted Disney Cruise Line fares periodically released throughout the year. The first step is making sure that you/your family member qualifies.

I have been working as a travel agent for over 3 years, and I’ve found that many people have no idea that most travel agents are completely free to use. There is a general misconception that it is a luxury only afforded to the rich and famous going on high dollar vacations. I can certainly understand why it would appear that way because how many things in life are really free, right? How is it possible that a travel agent is free? Don’t they get paid? It’s really very simple. Travel agents are paid a commission by the suppliers they book through. The commission is built into the supplier’s pricing, so you’re paying for a travel agent regardless of how/where you book. Booking directly leaves that portion with the company, and you actually lose value by not having the help and direction of your own personal travel planner. Why not use a service you’re paying for anyway? Are you sure there aren’t any hidden fees? This is a question you will need to ask of any travel agent you consider using. I do not personally charge any fees, but there are agents that do. I get that it’s free now, but why should I use a travel agent? Can’t I just book online myself? There are so many reasons that using a travel agent is beneficial! Here are just a few.
Another important point is that using a travel agent is a way to support small business! I hope this brief explanation was helpful, and please let me know if I can answer any questions and/or help plan your next Magical vacation!
