Today is the day early birds! The Walt Disney Travel Company has released 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣7️⃣ packages for the Disneyland resort. Yay!
💥Booking your Disneyland vacation now is such an advantage and here's why:
1️⃣ Booking early locks you into 2026 pricing (We all know history usually repeats itself with a fall ticket increase).
2️⃣Booking early gives you access to those hard to get rooms like the ✨2 Bedroom Suite at the Disneyland Hotel✨. My favorite!
3️⃣Booking early gives you time to make payments against your package. Love it when clients do this!
🗓️Plans change? No problem. Payments are refundable up until final payment (and even then there is still wiggle room) so I can move you to other dates or cancel for a refund.

Happy Monday folks!
It's hard to believe but Summer 2026 is almost complete. This summer has been a busy one - definitely tried to soak up the moments. Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end and for me Back to School means Back to Social 😂.
🧡One of my favorite ☀️Summer of '26☀️moments has to be repelling over 100 feet at Morning Glory Arch near Arches National Park. The early morning hike was so beautiful and the staff at Moab Adventure Center was top notch. They guided our group through two repels with patience and encouragement. Highly recommend! Absolutely loved Arches National Park and Canyonlands National Park. Our National Parks are so beautiful. They really are such treasures!
🥳Meanwhile on the Disney front, I have a fun announcement. So many of you have waited so patiently this summer for 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣7️⃣ Disneyland packages to open. I am happy to announce that 2027 Walt Disney Travel Packages to the Happiest Place on Earth are available to book ✨TOMORROW ✨!
💌For those of you who have reached out, I will be in touch to get additional information to prepare your quotes.
🙋‍♀️If you are interested in heading to Disneyland next year and would like to get a quote, feel free to message me and we can get the process started.
👏Lastly, shout out to my sweet summer clients. So many ✨magical moments✨ were had. Thank you so much for your continued support!
Hope everyone had a wonderful summer!

I know for many of you (including yours truly) this summer’s countdown hits different. Hard to believe the last day of school is tomorrow 🤯. Like last, last. Craziness 🥺.
The last couple months I chose to lean in as much as I could to this season so social was a little quiet but clients, whew - they sure had some fun creating some really amazing core memories with their families. Some of you watched safari animals off your hotel balcony, lived your very own Harry Potter experience, treated yourselves to a tour with a ‘plaid, honored loved ones with trips to the Happiest Place on Earth, sailed on the high seas aboard the brand-new Disney Treasure (so good), traveled to the City of Lights for a Mother-Daughter adventure to Disneyland Paris, and so much more. I am so proud of all of you who made these moments happen; I know it isn’t easy with schedules, budgets, and commitments. Well done!
⏳As someone who knows that these childhood memories will soon be a thing of the most marvelous past, embrace each season folks. Remember way back when ✨18 Summers✨ looked like you had time. The truth is time is a thief and the only way to combat it is to make those trips happen! So let's chat and see where Summer 2026 can take you. So many great options still available!
Ok, enough of my JenTalk. Carry on as I wallow in pictures of little cutie patooties 😂.
🎓And to my fellow Senior families, congrats! Let’s welcome Summer 2026 with open arms and fill it with the most amazing adventures 🧳.

Spring Break is upon us and time for some ✨tips✨ to navigate the crowds at the Disneyland Resort. 
🎈Have a plan and get to the parks 30-45 minutes before opening. I don’t recommend overplanning but do have a conversation with your travel party ahead of time learning what everyone’s must-do attractions/experiences are. Since mornings are typically lighter, try and accomplish these must-dos first thing in the morning. 
✨Purchase Lightning Lane Multipass. This ticket add-on is definitely one that I 10/10 recommend; especially if your party does the most popular attractions. Remember you can start making your selections once you scan into the park then every two hours or if you have redeemed your selection. You can also purchase the Single Pass for select attractions like Radiator Springs Racers or Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. 
🎈Mobile Order your lunch/dinner in the morning. Many times the mobile order time slots get backed up during popular lunch and dinner time slots. You can avoid the disappointment (and the hangries) of ordering your meal ahead of time. Just don’t forget to set an alarm on your phone to remind you where you need to be! This is also a great tip for larger families as there is less decision fatigue when it comes to “where do you want to eat”.  
✨Download fun apps like Heads Up or the Play Disney Parks app. These boredom busters will help you pass the time waiting in line.
🎈Reserve a Dining package where you receive a reserved viewing spot for an experience like Fantasmic!, Paint the Night Parade, or World of Color. Dining reservations can be made at 60 days prior to travel and are highly suggested. 
✨Enjoy the parks till closing! Once the nighttime shows are done, the parks typically see a drop in crowds. Such a fun time to enjoy the nighttime magic. The shops along Main Street U.S.A. or Buena Vista Street will stay open after closing so this is a great time to grab a souvenir or a late night treat! 
🎈Best piece of advice? Have realistic expectations. It will be crowded during Spring Break. There is no way around that. Pack your patience and a sense of adventure. Remember, "Luck favors the Prepared".

✨🔟 Years of Magic✨

This month marks 🔟 years since I started Fairytale Journeys by Jen. Hard to believe that number is now double digits 😂. Crazy 🤯!
🧳This past decade has been filled with amazing clients, incredible trips, and so many unforgettable memories. Watching your families grow and being trusted with your vacations year after year has been such an honor!
💙To every client who trusted me with their trip, referred a friend, liked a post, or shared a memory from their adventure — thank you. It definitely takes a village to be successful and I am so grateful for mine!
🥂Cheers to us!
With gratitude,Jen 🫶

Spring into ✨MAGIC✨ this coming break at the Disneyland Resort!
I was just quoting someone and came across this deal. Hard to believe one of my favorite boutique hotels is available for our 🌸Spring Break🌸 dates so I had to share.
For travel dates of March 25-28, a family of (4) 10+ in a Walt Disney Travel Package starts at $2,781.70.
⬇️Package to include ⬇️
🏨 Candy Cane Inn Accommodations
🎟 2-Day 1 Park Per Day Tickets + Lightning Lane MultiPass
💰Magical Extras Savings Pass
🎁Collectible Pin and Lanyard
🩷I love the ✨Candy Cane Inn✨ for clients that want a more intimate stay that is still within walking distance. It also offers a recent renovation, complimentary parking, complimentary breakfast, and a complimentary park shuttle.
📩 Let's get your spring break plans finalized so you can concentrate on the fun; not the logistics. DM today for your personalized quote to the Happiest Place on Earth!

Happy Friday folks!
I am back answering my list of questions from one of my favorite ✨not-so-little people✨highlighting my 🔹Favorite Disneyland Things🔹.
Tonight I picked…What is your favorite Disney character, & do you have a memorable experience with them in the parks?
Goodness, I had to think about this one for a long time because I have had so many amazing interactions at the Disneyland Resort. If I'm being completely honest, I really don’t think I can pick one.
🏆I say this often…Disneyland character interactions are hands down the ✨best✨ in the biz! Walt Disney World characters are great, but there is just something about the Disneyland ones. They're brilliant at improv and really know their backstories. And the villains…oh my word they write the book on being bad, sassy, & push the envelope daily.
🩷The Evil Queen/Maleficent character (who sadly has a whole story behind her exit), Dr. Facilier, the Captains - Hook, America, Marvel, and Jack, Mr. Incredible, Daisy & Donald, Tinker Bell, the Evil Step Sisters, Darth Vader, Kyle Ren, Vi Moradi, Chewbacca, Redd the Pirate, Chip and Dale, & so many more have weaved a storyline into my Disneyland journey 🫶.
PRO TIP
➡️For a great interaction, have a few questions on hand to start the conversation going; this is especially fun with the littles. Definitely have your camera ready for those magical moments!
🏰Also, don’t forget to check the Disneyland app in the morning of your visit for the list of characters that will be out and about for the day. You will find the list under the Map📍icon. If you open up the character prompt, you'll also see the times they will be available.
💙I also love that Disneyland will surprise you with characters as well. Fantasyland is one of these spots where you will see random characters strolling the land. So fun!
🥂Cheers to these Cast Members who are ✨friends with characters✨ because they have to have the patience of a saint for the questions they are asked & the special encounters they endure. You truly are the ✨magic✨.
⬇️How about you? Who are your favorites?

Where are my fellow Class of 2026 parents 🙋‍♀️?
Whether we like it or not, the graduation countdown is full steam ahead. How will you celebrate?
🧳An epic trip is always a good idea but deciding where to go for such a monumental moment can be so hard 😂.
➡️Adventure ⛰️, beach 🏝️, culture 🗺️, fun 🎢, cruise 🚢, or r&r 🧖‍♀️? Or, maybe a combo of all the above 😂? I know which one I would pick - how about you?
💌Need help planning? So many amazing options throughout the Disney and National Geographic portfolio. Let's chat and create a trip to remember!

Good morning everyone! Thought I would share a 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣5️⃣ accomplishment with you 🥳.
😢I wasn't able to attend the Fairytale Journeys Travel Summit this year. Had to live through other agents' posts and watch from the sidelines. Man, oh man I see what you guys mean about fomo 😂. I did find out though that I was announced as Top Seller for the Disneyland Resort for 2025.
🥰This award is a testament to all of YOU who put your ✨faith & trust✨ in me to assist in planning your vacations. While I book all Disney Destinations, the Disneyland Resort is the heart of my operation. I love that so many of you want to experience the OG. It is just so full of magic and charm!
❤️Thank you so much for your continued support! Let's make 2026 the best year yet! - Jennifer

Friends! If you follow other Disney sites, I am sure you have seen that the ✨Anaheim Transportation Network✨ is ceasing operations in March (which is the company that runs the Anaheim Resort Transportation bus). I really thought this was click bait from the scuttlebutts but unfortunately it isn't.
🤔We still don't know if any service will take its place but for now I am recommending (as per usual) that you stay within walking distance of the entrance. There are so many great options to choose from so I don't really think you need to worry about it too much; especially if you plan ahead.
➡️For those of you booked long the Anaheim Resort Transportation line arriving after ✨April 1✨, you may want to consider moving your hotel. Happy to run some quotes for you. I certainly hope there will be a solution because some of these Good Neighbor hotels (and guests) are really going to feel the strain.
➡️Have questions? Feel free to message me for details.
