The countdown has officially started as we prepare to celebrate Travel Advisor Appreciation Day on May 7 – just one month away! But why stop at just one day when we can make it a month-long celebration? Here at Disney Destinations, we are gearing up to show you just how much we appreciate everything you do, and we have a lot of fun up our sleeves!

Starting May 1, we’ll kick off an entire month of celebrations just for you – the incredible travel advisors that help plan unforgettable Disney vacations for your clients. From special offerings to fun surprises, we can’t wait to make this month extra magical for you. Here’s a look at what we have planned: 

TRAVEL ADVISOR APPRECIATION FUN AT THE WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT!

Travel Advisor Appreciation Station at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park

All month long, you’re invited to stop by our Travel Advisor Appreciation Station located at Upcountry Landing near the “Feathered Friends in Flight!” show at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park. This limited-time experience is exclusive to all current travel advisors based in the U.S. and Canada with valid agency IATA or CLIA identification. It’s the perfect spot to grab a refreshment, chat with our Travel Agency Sales team, enjoy some shade, take in the lovely views of the Tree of Life or enjoy a little rest as you explore the park. You may even encounter a surprise or two during your visit. The Travel Advisor Appreciation Station is scheduled to open Monday-Saturday from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. ET, May 1-31.*

NOW CLOSED - New Opportunity to Register for 1-Day Disney’s Animal Kingdom Complimentary Theme Park Admission
This year, we’re offering something extra special – the opportunity to register for a 1-Day, 1-Park Ticket valid for Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park admission for you and up to two (2) guests (subject to availability) to be able to stop by our Travel Advisor Appreciation Station.** That’s right – that means you can request up to three theme park tickets in total! It’s one more way we’re saying thank you for your hard work, passion and dedication as you deliver unforgettable vacation experiences to your clients. We’re offering a limited number of complimentary theme park tickets to Disney’s Animal Kingdom each day, so plan those visits early! Each advisor is only eligible to request tickets for one date from May 1-31, 2025, for use on the selected date only and we’re unable to accommodate changes to ticket requests, so please be mindful when you make your date selection.
