When Walt Disney World raised the price of its park passes last month, a less-noticed increase went into effect. Parking fees jumped from $17 to $20, one of their biggest increases ever. The fee was $15 early last year, meaning the cost to park has soared 33 percent in a year and a half. Days after Disney's prices went up, Universal Orlando quickly followed suit with a $20 parking charge, too. SeaWorld also recently boosted its fees to $18 from $17.
Valet parking is free of charge to all vehicles displaying a disabilties tag at Disney facilities offering valet service. Valet parking at the Swan and Dolphin hotels is $26 + tax. If you are dining at one of the signature restaurants at the Swan and Dolphin request a validation from the hostess stand. NOTE: Valet parking at the Swan and Dolphin is not reciprocal with the Disney-owned resorts.
