We are planning on taking a trip to Disney World next fall, probably leaving the week after Thanksgiving. Is it too soon to book? We are planning on booking through Magical Journeys and they will apply discounts for me should they pop up, so what's the harm? I'm just having issues taking the plunge. What's the earliest you all have booked in the past?

No problem at all. As you said, MJ will take care of any discounts so there's no issue at all with booking now.

We've had our reservations booked since the end of July, so it's definitely not too early. We are checking in the weekend after Thanksgiving & I can hardly wait! For us, the anticipation is half the fun! :woohoo:

I'm another early booker, I like having it planned, and know that Magical Journeys will apply any discounts that come out, so I don't have to worry about it.

Not only do you know you'll be able to book the room you want, etc, it helps me with budgeting and saving for the trip, since it is "really" booked. :thumbsup:

Heck, for a November 2015 trip I think you have to reserve your restroom FP+ in February, right?

I booked last week for the same week in 2015 (week after Thanksgiving) :thumbsup: I also went through Magical Journeys so we can get the best deals as they become available. We just received our vacation booklet from Disney today.:cloud9:
