What They’re Saying:

  • Shannon D, current 2023 planDisney Panelist: “Like so much of what we have come to expect from all things Disney, planDisney is a creative collaboration of a diverse group of panelists who share personal experiences and in-depth knowledge to help create magical moments for guests. Asking planDisney your Disney vacation planning questions is like asking your friend or neighbor who loves Disney for all the must-dos and knowing you will receive a warm, well-researched, and magical response in return. For me, personally, planDisney is a family that has grown exponentially over the years, even before I was a panelist. I think this connection that people make with one another that grows out of their love for Disney Destinations is one of the magical bonuses that planDisney brings to guests. It has certainly been an important part of my life for which I am incredibly grateful!”
