planning a disney world trip for may 2028…should i use a travel agent?
So I’m planning a Disney World trip for the beginning of May 2028 for my mom’s 50th birthday. It’s gonna be six of us total, my family of four plus me and my partner.
Right now the main plan is to stay at the Polynesian because that’s the resort my mom really wants for her 50th, and honestly if we’re gonna do a big birthday trip like this we kinda wanna do it right.
The thing is, this is gonna be a pretty big trip with multiple rooms, park tickets, probably park hoppers, dining, watching for discounts, all that good stuff, and I’m starting to wonder if using a Disney travel agent would just make everything way easier instead of us trying to keep track of everything ourselves.
For people who have used one, was it actually worth it and more convenient? Did they help with stuff like keeping multiple rooms together, room requests, watching for discounts after you already booked, changing the reservation if a better deal came out, etc.?
And if you do recommend using one, who would you go with?
I’ve heard Small World Vacations is really good, so that’s one I’ve been looking at, but I’m open to other agencies or even specific agents if y’all have somebody you swear by.
Basically I’m trying to figure out if a travel agent would actually make this trip less stressful or if I’m better off just booking everything through Disney myself?
