This is very informative, thanks very much!

[@dawnhughes3983]

Thank you for all the great tips!

[@councilofkarens729]

Another excellent and informative video. Many thanks Annie.

[@kimp1044]

This video is fantastic! I was so confused by the packages and wondering if they were worth it but you’ve sold me haha

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

Thank you! We booked ours and couldn’t find any good info about it, so I really wanted to make something people would find useful! I appreciate your comment!

[@MomsTravelTeam]

I'm pretty well versed with Disney but we're going to Tokyo in 2025 specifically for Disney - this is a huge help!

[@joezombie661]

Great video, can’t wait for my vacation package in October!

[@soyouwannamokatiki]

I’m also going I October!

[@Han-we1te]

Thank you for a thorough video on the vacation package! I appreciated the tip on picking up the package the night before. That would be a big help in getting out the door in the morning. For the drink voucher, do you have to order in person to use the drink voucher? Or can you mobile order using the drink voucher?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

I’m pretty positive you’ll need to order in person. They need to see the drink tickets each time.

[@dixiehoyt2546]

I love all the information! Is there a video where you can show us how to book two vacation packages to stay longer? I am planning on going to Tokyo Disney but would like to stay longer than the two days. That would be very helpful. Also, when you do book two vacation packages do you have to change hotel rooms in between? Thank you!

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

Yes, I have a video guide on how to book the vacation packages! We did 2 packages to stay longer and also added extra days at the hotels. You might have to change hotels, depending on availability when you book, but luggage transfer is easy. You can either use the hotel TV in your room to check out and transfer your luggage (it’s all in English) or tell the front desk you’d like your bags transferred to your next hotel. Just leave them bags in your hotel room and they will pick them up from your room and transfer it to your next hotel. It will be at your next hotel waiting for you later that day and brought up to your room completely free of charge (and there’s no tipping). You won’t be dragging your bags between the room and lobby or between hotels. It’s very convenient.

[@dixiehoyt2546]

@@AdventuringWithAnnie I take it that we would need to book a hotel the night before the vacation package, in between packages and they day after? Is that correct?

[@WeldAndWhimsy]

This is such a great video! Thank you! Question- what did you do with your luggage the previous night to your hotel stay? Did you just book an extra night at the fanta-sea hotel before and after?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@WeldAndWhimsy we stayed at the Tokyo Disneyland Hotel the day before our Vacation Package started. There is a luggage transfer service that is completely free. When you check out, just tell them what hotel you’re staying at next and they will have your luggage delivered that afternoon. You don’t even need to take it to the lobby. They will pick it up from your room and move it to the next hotel. You can check out and set up the transfer on your TV (in English) or at the front desk. They will deliver the luggage to your room after you check in. It’s a free service (and there’s no tipping). You can check out, go to the parks, and your luggage will be waiting at the next hotel when you go to check in later that day.

[@susienguyen4301]

Thank you so much for this amazing video! Super helpfulll!

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

You're welcome! Thank you for watching!

[@kerriannhayes4928]

There are 3 of us in 1 room for a vacation package, do we all get the popcorn bucket each? Also your videos are amazing, thank you so much x

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

We only got 1 popcorn bucket for 2 people, so I think it’s just one per package. You will probably have to share 🍿

[@ItsKeviD]

I usually never comment on videos, but this was by far the best vacation package video I have seen.

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that.

[@Robles2891]

I agree, never understood any other KZbinr. This video 100% made me really understand what to expect and do lol 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@JnDBurkinshaw]

Can I clarify, does the happy 15 entry early only for Disneyland? We are planning a trip this time next year and think we will just book the hotel and tickets, but want to make sure we get into fantasy springs. I thought that would give us an advantage if we were staying in the hotel for both parks? But please let me know if it isn’t!

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

As of now (October 2024), only Fantasy Springs Hotel, Hotel MiraCosta, and the Ambassador Hotel get the Happy 15 early entry for both parks. The other hotels only have early entry for Tokyo Disneyland. Back in June when Fantasy Springs opened, it was only Fantasy Springs and MiraCosta that got DisneySea early entry. Ambassador was recently added to the list, so it’s possible in a few months that Tokyo Disneyland Hotel could also receive early entry for DisneySea, but at this time, it’s just the 3 I listed. The early entry will give you an advantage to get into Fantasy Springs before everyone else can try. If you can book one of the 3 hotels with DisneySea early entry, I highly recommend it.

[@JnDBurkinshaw]

@@AdventuringWithAnnie Thanks so much!

[@coolauntaesthetic1882]

How did you book the snuggly duckling? I booked a vacation package for November but none of the fantasy springs restaurants are listed as an option

[@timothytan2707]

Is there special entrance from Fantasy Chateau Side Hotel to the Fantasy Springs? Did you line up from the front of the Disney Sea park entrance to enter if you are staying at the Fantasy Spring hotel?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

If you’re staying at the Fantasy Springs Chateau you can use an exclusive entrance to DisneySea. The entrance for hotel guests will lead you into Fantasy Springs, which is at the back of DisneySea. You need to have a ticket to DisneySea AND the “Proof of Stay” ticket from the hotel to use the entrance. If you would prefer to enter the park at the main entrance, you can take the monorail to the front of the park. The monorail station is right by the Fantasy Springs Hotel.

[@swoosh714]

Hi. Thanks for the info. Quick question. Did you get a fantasy springs hotel vacation package? If you did, any tips on picking up the tickets/vacation package the day before? I’ve read that they don’t let non-guest onto the property, so I was curious how you were able to pick it up the day before. Thanks.

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

We had our hotel contact the Fantasy Springs Hotel to let them know we would be coming by to pick up our package. The Cast Member outside had our name on a list.

[@swoosh714]

Thank you

[@LopaSHott]

How do the logistics work for your luggage if you get a 1 day ticket with the 2 park days? How do you book a hotel the 2nd night without the package. We are planning on checking into a hotel day 1, going to the vacation package for day 2 and day 3, but need a room for the night of day 3. Do you have to check out?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

You will need to check out on day 3. The hotel will store your luggage and transfer it to another hotel for free. You will need to book another night on your own through the Tokyo Disney site for the 3rd night since your package won’t have a hotel stay. It might be another hotel if the same one is not available, but the luggage transfer is extremely simple. We change hotels and rooms almost every day during our stay and we never have to move our luggage. You can check out on your TV in the room and then you can select what you want done with your luggage. You can have it stored or transferred somewhere. If you’re going to another hotel, you will enter those details, leave your luggage in your room, and it will be picked up and driven over to your next hotel. It will be delivered to your room once you check in to the next hotel. This service is available for most hotels, not just Disney ones. So you could check out and ask for your luggage to be transferred using your tv, leave your luggage in the room, go to the park, and then when you go to your next hotel, the luggage will be there waiting for you. I hope that makes sense!

[@LopaSHott]

Wow thank you so much! This is very helpful and way less stressful. I was stressed thinking I would have to haul the luggage to another hotel and then go to the park.

[@PeiLingTan-om8vx]

Hi Annie, did you order the Arendelle set meals? If you did, did you get a discount since you already had a beverage ticket?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@PeiLingTan-om8vx No, we did not! I don’t think you will get a discount with a beverage ticket, unfortunately. We showed our beverage ticket to skip the food line and just go in and get a free drink, walk around, and take photos. You can buy just the food from the set meal without a drink and use your voucher to get a drink. But if you want one of the souvenirs that you can only buy with the set, you will have to buy the full set.

[@peilingtan8544]

Thanks so much Annie! ❤ This is so helpful! 😊

[@peilingtan8544]

One more question, Annie. With the beverage ticket, if I just want a drink, I need not queue to enter the restaurant nor mobile order in advance? But will that mean I cannot get a seat? 😅

[@AndreaSHG]

Omg wait I didn’t know you can pick up the vacation package tickets the night before! I am booked to stay at the Toy Story hotel for one night before staying for 2 nights at Miracosta with the 3 day vacation package. So that means I could use my Early Entry to Disneyland on my first day? Omg I am so excited!

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@AndreaSHG yes!! When you check in at Toy Story Hotel, they will give you a Happy Entry ticket for Disneyland the next morning. Let them know your tickets are with your Vacation Package and you’re going to pick it up early at MiraCosta. You can cross over to Bayside station and take the monorail to MiraCosta and pick up your packet the night before. Super easy and gives you a head start on your first day! Have a great time!

[@AndreaSHG]

Thanks for replying!! My trip is in October and I am already counting down the days! I can’t wait for Fantasy Springs but I am quite bummed that Journey to the Centre of the Earth is under refurbishment during that time 😢

[@bakersbites]

Appreciated how thorough your video was. I found it very helpful for what to expect with my package in December. 💕Just wondering though, are the reserved seating for the Parade and Shows included in the Vacation Package? I have the Fantasy Springs Enjoy Attractions and Even More package and I can't seem to find any info on that.

[@romychar]

Not included. If I understand correctly, right now, those spots are only for vacation packages on the Japanese website ~ they have way more options but you need a japanese address etc. On the English website this option is not available in any of the packages as of right now

[@bakersbites]

@@romychar Thanks so much for clarifying. I was searching high and low on my vacation package for that info.

[@romychar]

@@bakersbites no problem!

[@FroyMarroquin]

@bakersbites I got the same package you did. Do you know if this includes more than the three rides? All videos seem to be 3 rides per park but I never had the chance to select the time for my rides

[@soaringaming]

This was amazing, thank you! I only have one question how did you pick up your vacation package early? We aren’t staying at Fantasy springs the night before, can I still walk over to the hotel and pick up our package the evening before our first day?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@soaringaming we stayed at the Tokyo Disneyland Hotel the first night. We asked the front desk if we could go over to Fantasy Springs Hotel to pick up our package early and they said yes. We took the monorail over to the hotel and picked it up!

[@KashChaos]

@@AdventuringWithAnniethat’s a great strategy! I’m unsure if they would allow picking up the package early unless you were staying at a Disney hotel, but I think it’s worth a try. I’m staying off property at Hyatt Regency Tokyo Bay the night before our vacation package at Mira Costa, but I plan to ask the front desk if we can pick it up earlier. Great video!!

[@zinglullaby]

@@KashChaos Mind if I ask, did you manage to go pick up a day before? Thank you!

[@KashChaos]

@@zinglullaby not for us, they told us to return back the next morning since they didn't have the package kit ready yet

[@carmenylee]

Hello, thanks for all the VP information! I was wondering if the food provided at Blue Bayou a set meal? Which other restaurants did you reserve through the VP? Do you remember how much additional you paid for the restaurant reservations?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

Blue Bayou menu was a set meal, 2 options to choose from for appetizer, entree, and dessert. We had reservations at Fantasy Springs Hotel Restaurant, Snuggly Duckling, and Blue Bayou with one package and it was slightly more than the other package we only had one meal.

[@KEI-c2y]

Hello could you make a video on how to book the Disney package? Where does it sell? Is it in a website or what? If so could you make a video for it❤

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

Yes! I’m working on a video to show how to book the vacation package. It can be done on the website or app. Video coming soon, so stay tuned!

[@FamiLeigh888]

Fantastic video! How did you manage to reserve the snuggly duckling as part of the package, my package didn't offer this option 😢. I did get the fantasy springs restaurant though. Oh and the parade shows too? Don't see it on my package.

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@FamiLeigh888 I think it just gives you options to choose from based on availability. We were told that since there aren’t many seats for the shows, those can be gone really fast. You would still be able to go inside Snuggly Duckling with your drink voucher to get a drink and sit inside and enjoy. You can mobile order or wait in line to order food, you would just have to pay for the food since it’s not part of your Vacation Package.

[@dreamyc1012]

if you booked 2 x VP for 2D1N each, that means for the 1st day, it'll be Disneyland and that night stay in whichever hotel booked. 2nd day will be DisneySea with no hotel stay. for the 2nd VP to kick in, that means you'll have to have it activated on Day 4 instead of Day 3 as that would mean there would be an overlap of the park you can visit and that means, you'll have to book an extra hotel stay for Day 3. Am I right?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

If you book 2 vacation packages, you would need to book a hotel for the night in between packages. We had 2 packages with Fantasy Springs Hotel. We got our second packet before we checked out of the Fantasy Springs Hotel (since it started the next day) and checked into Tokyo Disneyland Hotel for the night. So Disneyland day VP, hotel stay VP, Tokyo DisneySea day VP, night where you need to book your own room, next day would start second package with Disneyland day, vacation package hotel, and then DisneySea day. So you might have to hotel hop a bit. They offer a free service to transfer your luggage between hotels. You can just leave it in your room and they will pick it up and take it to your next hotel. It’s super convenient.

[@dreamyc1012]

@@AdventuringWithAnnie many thnx for answering! Greatly appreciate... One more question. I was wondering if you know how long the design of freebies like popcorn container, card tag etc. last before they change the design for the VP. 1 year or more perhaps?

[@Janice_]

Hi!! Thank you so much for this video. I'm definitely debating on getting a VP because of its current perks with Fantasy Springs for December. You mentioned you picked up your paper itinerary and tickets from your hotel the night before - where did you stay before your VP started? I'm thinking of the 2 day package, so the morning of feels a bit tight and was wondering if you have any recommendations for nearby, affordable hotels that are NOT another Disney hotel. Also for the drink vouchers! Are you able to get more than 1 drink per restaurant at a time? Since it's "unlimited"? Or do you have to keep going back in line to get more? Thank you!!

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@Janice_ we stayed at the Tokyo Disneyland Hotel the night before our package started. I made a short here on the channel pointing out hotels near Bayside Station (where Fantasy Springs Hotel is). There’s the Grand Nikko Tokyo Bay, Hotel Okura, the Hilton Tokyo Bay, and the Sheraton Grand Tokyo Bay. If you’re considering booking a vacation package, don’t wait too long since they do sell out!

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@Janice_ and for drink vouchers: Everyone in your group gets a drink voucher, but you will most likely have to go through the line again to order more than one drink at a time.

[@Janice_]

@@AdventuringWithAnnie Thank you!!

[@junechong5726]

Could you let me know where to pick up the Disney vacation pouches? Is there only one location for pick-up, or are there multiple options?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

We went to our hotel the day before check in to pick up our package.

[@IpMarjorie]

very informative video. question - did you manage to eat at the fantasy spring restaurants? i got a package which allows me to eat there but all the slots seem to be fully booked. also, for tinkerbell there isnt a DPA queue so does it mean its a longer line up since will have to queue up along with the other standby pass holders? thanks a lot!

[@romychar]

For tinkerbell indeed you go through the normal line since there isn’t a DPA (disney premier access/fast lane) line

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

Yes, we ate at the Fantasy Springs Restaurant. I have a video here on the channel showing the breakfast. I believe you can keep checking for availability even after you book the vacation package and modify your reservation if something else opens up. As for Tinkerbell, yes, you will queue with everyone else. I recommend riding Busy Buggies early in the morning before it gets a line. We went there first, so there was almost no line.

[@AllAmericanSafety]

Hi, these attractions…can we book them in advance? I already purchased the VP (fantasy springs: enjoy even more attractions) but I’m unable to add attractions on the app. Or is this something I can only book the day of. Thx

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@AllAmericanSafety with your Vacation Package, you should have the option to select attractions. To get more Priority and Premier Access passes, you’ll need to be inside the park. Everyone needs to enter the park and then you’ll be able to use the app to book more rides. Just scan all the tickets into one account and you can book passes for your entire group. They cannot be done in advance, only same day once you’re inside the park.

[@AllAmericanSafety]

@@AdventuringWithAnnie thank you

[@cassiechan293]

Hi there! What time did you pick up your vacation package the night before? I’m planning to do so but not sure what time they would be available for pickup the night before? :)

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@cassiechan293 we checked into the Tokyo Disneyland Hotel the day before our Vacation Package started and asked them if we could go to the Fantasy Springs Hotel to pick up the package since our park tickets were in it. We went right over and arrived around 8 PM to pick up our package.

[@cassiechan293]

Oh wow that’s great! Will try that out :))

[@stephanieguillen9330]

Great video! I have a question though I hope you can help. It’s a 1 night stay and you get tickets park tickets but where did you leave your luggage the first day since 1st day is check in but also first park day and where did you leave your stuff for check out. This is what’s holding me back from booking 😭

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@stephanieguillen9330 you can store your luggage at the hotel for free. And most hotels offer free transfer services between hotels. For example, we leave our luggage in the Tokyo Disneyland Hotel room and just tell the desk we’re checking out and checking into a different hotel. They pick the luggage up from the room and it will arrive at our next hotel for free. And they will store it for you until your room is ready or until you check in. You can even use the TV in the hotel room to check out and set up the luggage transfer so you don’t have to speak to anyone. It’s all in English on the screen. We change hotel rooms every night and never have to move our own luggage ever, not even to and from the lobby. It’s sooo convenient!!

[@stephanieguillen9330]

@@AdventuringWithAnnie wow that’s awesome!! My only problem is after Disney I am going to an airbnb so would they store it there after checkout to? What time did you arrive at the hotel your first day to leave your luggage to then head to the park? Thank you so much by the way for responding 😭❤️

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@stephanieguillen9330you can arrive very early on your check in day and store your luggage and they will hold your luggage on your check out day, just let them know what time you will be picking it back up. You will have to pick it up and take it to your airbnb on your own instead of a transfer service, though.

[@SweetFlava789]

How were you able to book the Fantasy Springs hotel? I tried going on the site an hour before my 4 month window opened (Japan time) and the FS hotel was fully booked by the time I got out of the queue and had access to the site.

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@@SweetFlava789 check hotel reservation availability right after the website updates. We checked almost daily and were able to get 2 nights at the Fantasy Springs Hotel, at separate times. You can still keep trying to find a reservation there!

[@FroyMarroquin]

All restaurant reservations selected with the VP are paid?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

Yes, they are! We just gave our voucher to the restaurant and everything was covered. We ate at Blue Bayou, Fantasy Springs Hotel Restaurant, and Snuggly Duckling and it included our drink, food, and dessert. It’s very convenient!

[@AizleenBoscan]

How much did you pay for your package?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

It was about $1500 for 2 people at Fantasy Springs Hotel, but it includes all the tickets, room, meals, passes etc. If you choose a cheaper hotel or less expensive restaurants and rides, your package can be much cheaper!

[@AizleenBoscan]

Thank you ​@@AdventuringWithAnnie

[@deeperez6652]

​@@AdventuringWithAnnieSo it was a total of $1500 for VP and only one night stay at the hotel?

[@AdventuringWithAnnie]

@ yes, for 2 people, but the price can vary depending on the hotel, attractions, and meals you pick. We had the Fantasy Springs Hotel and 3 meals, including one at Blue Bayou. It can be cheaper to pick Toy Story Hotel and one meal. I have a step by step guide on how to book the vacation package and I show you how to select the different options and how it changes the price.

[@hannahevers5337]

Is it too late to get the package if I've already booked my room and tickets?
