Payment plan for Disney World tickets

As we explained above, Disney does offer payment plans for packages, however there is no payment plans for tickets. This means that if you are just looking to purchase Disney World tickets without a hotel, then you must purchase them with the full amount due at the time of the transaction. Even though you cannot pay for Disney tickets over time, we still recommend purchasing your tickets as far in advance as possible. This is because of the theme park reservation system implemented by Disney Parks in 2020. This requires that guests make park reservations on days they would like to visit each park. The park reservations tend to fill up during busy times of year so once you have enough savings to purchase your tickets, we recommend to do so for those park reservations.
