Walt Disney World Resort: a location for families. Whether your family is just a couple or a much
larger group, Walt Disney World Resort can be a wonderful vacation destination. I fall into the
latter. In fact, I can’t remember a time when I have traveled with less than 6 people in my party
and my most recent trip was no exception. I just got back from Walt Disney World with my
family. We were a party of 13 people. Yes, you read that right, 13 people, including 2 infants. So
how do you manage a large family group? What do you do to make these kinds of vacations just
as magical as those with smaller groups?
First, make sure you have a lead contact and planner. This would be the person who makes
contact with your Upon A Star Travel and Concierge agent. Having a point person helps to
streamline everything so that there is no confusion.
Realize that it’s alright if the whole group doesn’t do everything together. If part of the group
wants to go one direction and the other part wants to go in the other direction, then split up.
Taking the whole group in the same direction at the same time could make your wait times
longer if half the group is riding and the other half is waiting. Plus your travel time could be
extended.
Making your dining reservations for the same place at the same time, gives you opportunities to
meet up daily and enjoy dinner together as a family.
My big family!
You can also have your FastPass+ reservations at the same time if everyone wants to ride the
same ride. But if you have some that won’t ride certain rides, then split up your ride
reservations and make it easy for everyone!
There are many ways that you can make your large family group vacation magical. At Upon A Star Travel & Concierge we can help you with all of these plans and give you suggestions to make your trip run smoothly.
I invite you to contact me to help you plan your next magical Walt Disney World vacation.
