Last year, families who booked a vacation at WDW during the run-in to the Christmas holidays received a call from Mickey Mouse announcing the good news.

Due to the success of this, visitors who buy 2008 Walt Disney World vacations in the next few weeks will have the pleasure of having Mickey Mouse break the news to their kids.


Families in the USA and Canada who book a vacation between now and December 23rd will get a telephone call from Mickey Mouse personally announcing the good news on Christmas Day.

Parents can plan their trips start-to-finish online and choose to have Mickey Mouse call their house and give a magical surprise to their kids on Dec. 25. They can also select the greeting that Mickey gives their families -- either "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Holidays."
