I'm not sure what type of "perk" you were looking for. You can get a "Birthday Button" when you check in at your resort or from guest services in any of the parks.

 

Disney never has automatically offered any other celebration incentive. Some people have gotten a birthday card signed by a character in their room, and sometimes at a restaurant they'll put a candle in your dessert, but that's about it and it's never been guaranteed. (On the cruise they will generally bring a small generic birthday cake to your table if you let them know it's a birthday.)

 

If you want an in-room cake or room decorations or something along those lines, order it in advance and plan on paying for it. They do not, and never have, provided this on a complimentary basis.

 

The only exception is if you are a concierge/club level guest, in that case they will generally provide a cake delivered to your room--but even then it's never guaranteed.

I was actually just commented on what someone else wrote about getting free park day ticket or a fast past. They use to do the free park ticket on the day of your birthday but they no longer to that as far as i know. I dont need a "perk" but if they offer it and its my bday why not...

Hi!

I am going on a cruise for my bday. actually my bday is a couple days after i get back from my cruise but its my 40th so we are going on a cruise to celebrate. We are staying at a disney resort the day before the cruise. I call Disney and they stayed they dont do the perks for the birthdays anymore. Can anyone confirm this? Did I get misinformed?

I also went back online to try to find the button to register for bithdays but could not find it could anyone help me find this?

thank you
