What is the Disney Mom Panel?
The Disney Mom Panel is a group of panelist that are selected by Disney to help answer questions. Questions can be about the Disney parks, resorts, shopping, restaurants. They have multiple panelists with areas of specialty. The areas/categories are Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Vacation club, runDisney Events and Disney Cruise Line. One thing to note, The Disney Moms panel is made up of both moms and dads. They take people with a variety of backgrounds, which aids in the user experience when they ask questions. If you have questions that they can’t answer, they will have the resources to find them.

Moreover, This can be quite a bit of work for a trip to Disney, but worth it. Panelist provide their own opinions, feedback on Disney vacations and Tips.

During the selection process there are 3 different rounds which can be nerve-wracking. It is difficult to be selected for a panelist position; however, you can reapply the following year. It is a difficult process; nevertheless, you have nothing to loss by applying. If you are one that likes to help others out, then this would be a great opportunity.
