As you might imagine, when it comes to Disney ticket packages, it can get a little confusing this Disney FAQ helps answer a lot of questions.

Of course there are a number of things you can do to lower the cost of your Disney vacation. Here are a few tips that can help.

Now with the convenience of the internet, you can be your own travel agent.

If you have some flexibility on when you plan to travel, you can benefit from traveling during the off season. The best times to travel to get these deals are late August through September, Thanksgiving to Christmas, and January through Presidents Day.

Rather than buying everything once you arrive, you can save money by bringing your own sunblock, film, diapers, batteries and non-perishable snack foods.

If you plan on purchasing Disney themed merchandise, like shirts and sweatshirts, buy them ahead at www.disneystore.com. You realize a savings and can often benefit from online specials and coupon codes.

Meals inside the parks are expensive. Therefore, try to eat as many as possible outside the park. If you do eat inside the park, plan to eat lunch rather than dinner. Dinner is much more expensive than lunch. Meals inside the park are very large. Often times, they can easily be shared.

Save parking and stroller receipts if you are park hopping, so you don't have to repurchase more.

One of the most helpful things I learned while on my Disney vacation was to bring along a book I purchased prior to the trip. It was one of those Walt Disney World for Dummies books and it proved to be extremely helpful.  I remember reading that there is a restaurant in Sleeping Beauty's castle, where I enjoyed an unforgetable dinner with my two young daughters. They will never forget that dinner and all of the attention they received.  As an added bonus we had perfect seats by the castle window to see the evening fireworks display.  They truly felt like princesses that night.  If I didn't have that book, I would have never known the restaurant existed.
