8 Disney World New Year’s Resolutions

It’s hard to believe 2024 is here! As always, with the New Year come resolutions and dreams that we hope to accomplish with the fresh start of January 1st. Dream big for 2024 by adding a dose of Disney to your New Year’s resolutions. Check out these Disney World New Year’s Resolutions that, with a little bit of “faith, trust, and pixie dust,” can make 2024 the best year yet!





 

1 – Start Saving for the Next Disney World Vacation

Alright, Scrooge McDuck, it’s time to head to the bank and set up a separate savings account for future Disney trips. Setting up a separate account (better yet, at a separate bank) will make it harder for all the little things that pop up to drain your vacation fund. Add small amounts over time, and before you know it, you’ll be ready to head to Disney. 

2 – Plan the Most Magical Trip

Whether you’ve never stepped foot on Disney World property or have been to Disney a hundred times now, it’s never too late to plan your most magical trip yet for 2024. You’ve worked hard, so now is the time to play hard with the trip of your dreams. Pick a Disney Resort you’ve always wanted to stay at, eat at the restaurants that appeal the most to you, splurge on a special ticketed event (such as Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party), purchase that one souvenir you’ve always wanted and plan to say hi to your favorite characters!

3 – Take Advantage of the Latest Discounts

Be on the hunt for the latest discounts this year by checking out Disney World’s Special Offers, Deals, and Discounts page. Discounts are available for rooms, dining, tickets (including annual passes), and even Memory Maker. Check out this page before settling into your plans, as some discounts require specific dates, length of stay, and amount of days on your ticket. We also recommend checking out the Disney Visa Card, as this card has its perks, both with financial rewards and in park rewards. Reading websites also help find discounts – especially this one we really like called DisneyLists (wink, wink).

4 – Prepare for What’s New at Disney

2024 is going to be an awesome year at Disney with happenings such as:

    • Completion of EPCOT’s World Celebration neighborhood
    • Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at Magic Kingdom
    • Country Bear Jamboree Reimagining at Magic Kingdom
    • Reimagined The Little Mermaid show at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

And these are just a few items we know are coming in 2024. Can you imagine the great happenings that we aren’t even aware of yet?! We can’t wait!





 

5 – Become a Disney Vacation Club Member

If you’ve ever wondered what Disney Vacation Club is all about, 2024 is the year to ask questions and do your research. Without DVC, we personally would not be able to go to Disney World as much as we do now. Plus, if we want to change it up and stay somewhere else (locations around the world!), we can save tremendously on rooms. We especially like the discounts offered on special ticketed events, merchandise, and dining. We are DVC fans!

6 – Stay Disney Fit

This is one trick that helps us stay in shape. Just think – while visiting Disney, you will likely be taking lots of photos, and you’ll be in lots of pictures… hence, motivation to get in shape before the big trip. Buy a Disney shirt online a size smaller than what you normally would wear and make that shirt a goal to fit into before your Disney vacation. When visiting Disney, sure go a little crazy with food, but keep in mind that Disney has tons of healthy food options and fantastic walking/running trails. Plus, let’s not forget runDisney events, where running just seems easier when Disney is involved.

7 – Make a Disney Recipe at Home

Do you have a favorite Disney dessert or meal that you just can’t wait to taste again? This is the year to recreate that Disney masterpiece right in your own home! Disney cookbooks with various mouthwatering recipes are all over bookstores. We’ve even spotted some of our favorite Disney recipes online for free. Throw on your Disney apron, get the family involved, and make 2024’s meals anything but mundane with a hint of Disney in the mix. Your family will thank you!

8 – Become a Disney Cast Member

That’s right – work for Disney! For those of you who have always said, “I want to work for Disney,” maybe 2024 is your year! Disney is always hiring for various positions, all with different requirements and pay scales. Check out Disney Careers and plan for a future with a mouse for a boss!

Here’s to 2024’s goofy moments, grumpy moments, happy moments, frozen-in-time moments, villain-type moments, and our favorite – magical moments.

Matt & Kim

We have had a long time love affair with Disney. We love the magic and the memories we've made at Walt Disney World! We follow all things Disney and have great experiences with being Annual Passholders, Disney Vacation Club Members, and RunDisney participants. From lodging to dining to Genie+ we have a spreadsheet for every occasion. Usually there isn’t a day that passes without some discussion of the master plan of our next trip to the happiest place on earth. Most people think we’re normal – until they travel to Disney with us.
