It’s Disney Month at AAA Western and Central New York – that means now is the perfect time to plan a magical getaway. Orlando consistently ranks as a top destination for travelers from Western and Central New York, and this year, visiting the Orlando area theme parks is extra special.

Disney kicked off “The World’s Most Magical Celebration” on October 1, 2021 to celebrate its 50th anniversary. The celebration runs for 18 months and is complete with new fireworks at Magic Kingdom (Disney Enchantment) and Epcot (Harmonious). Park icons like Cinderella Castle are transformed each night with dazzling glowing sparkles and pixie dust. Mickey, Minnie, and friends are all dressed up in special 50th Anniversary attire.

And that’s not all!  Disney Destinations has big plans to roll out even more in 2022.  Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, a two-night immersive experience that opens on March 1 will allows guests to tour the galaxy aboard the Halcyon Starcruiser. The Disney Wish, Disney’s newest cruise ship, debuts in June. The much-anticipated Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction is a reverse-launch roller coaster set to open in Epcot this summer.

As part of COVID protocols, all clients need reservations in advance to visit Disney parks, so pre-planning is very important. AAA Western and Central New York has a team of experts called “Mickey’s Gang” who are ready to help travelers plan their vacations.

Through January, travelers who book a new, eligible Disney vacation package will receive:

• A Mickey or Minnie Tumbler (1 per trip)
• A “Fab 5” luggage tag (1 per person)
• Mickey Ears and journal (aka autograph book) for each child 12 years and under
• Qualifying Vacations will also receive a Disney Towel
