Walt Disney World Moms Panel opens 2013 search for panelists


On Sept. 10, Disney Parks opened applications for its 2013 Walt Disney World Moms Panel. The panel’s call for entries highlights Disney’s search for its first-ever Sports Team Moms as well as bilingual panelists and international travelers.
The Walt Disney World Moms Panel, now in its sixth year, is an online trip-planning forum. It consists of Disney “super fans” who help other guests with questions covering a variety of Disney vacations: Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland Resort, Disney Cruise Line, Aulani, Adventures by Disney, Disney Vacation Club and run Disney destination races. All panel members have real-world experiences with Disney to draw upon in answering questions.
The 2013 call for entries reflect the growth of the Walt Disney World Mom Panel.
“We are excited to continue the expansion of the Moms Panel this year, adding a new Sports Team Mom specialty and bilingual panelists to our team of Disney vacation planners,” said Leanne Jakubowski, Director, Social Media at Walt Disney World Resort. “This diverse panel of Disney fans has helped countless guests turn their vacation dreams into a reality. Some families return from their trip and respond to the panelists, thanking them for the magical vacation they had a hand in creating. Many of our panelists feel it is an honor to assist travelers from all over the globe in making memories that will last a lifetime.”
The best match for the Sports Team specialist will have experience planning team travel to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex for events such as cheerleading, soccer, football and gymnastics. The applicant will be able to combine a focus on athletics with the details of planning a Disney family vacation.
The Moms Panel also seeks applicants to help address Disney's global appeal and presence. The search calls for seasoned international travelers (with Disney experiences around the world) and bilingual applicants (particularly individuals proficient in Spanish).
Unlike the name Walt Disney World Moms Panel suggests, interested fans need not be moms to apply anymore than they need to be Walt Disney World Resort specialists.
Panelists may be moms dads, grandparents, guardians, aunt and uncles. What the current panelists have in common is that they are the Disney trip-planners friends and family turn to. Panelists, in short, are fans who share their time and expertise with Disney guests seeking to plan their own magical vacations.
“For the past two years I have been blessed with the opportunity to share my love and appreciation for the most ‘Magical Place on Earth’ as a member of the Moms Panel,” said Marisol Lopez, bilingual panelist and Disney Cruise Line specialist. “Disney has provided my family with countless pixie-dusted moments we will never forget. I literally become emotional as I write my answers because I feel as if I am planning a trip for my family for each guest. Fun does not even describe it. It has truly been a life-changing experience for me. I encourage anyone who wants to share their Disney passion to apply. I still have ‘pinch me’ moments and cannot believe I have been given this amazing opportunity.”
Interested Disney fans have until Sept. 14 to apply or until 14,000 applications have been received, whichever comes first. The first step of the process involves a series of written questions, with the final round a brief phone interview. Panelists must be available to attend a training session at Walt Disney World Resort in December 2012.

Since 2008, the Walt Disney World Moms Panel has grown from just 12 members to more than 40 panelists. Guests can pose questions to the panelists in English and Spanish, visit the online library of questions and answers, and access Disney vacation-planning tools. Visitors can also watch dozens of videos from panelists and celebrities; these videos cover a wide-range of topics and include personal tips and “insider” information.
