Greetings, and welcome to
planDisney, Dorota!
Thank you for bringing this excellent question to planDisney – it would be my pleasure as a fellow Canadian resident and Disney fan to help you today! I’m excited that you’re planning a visit to Walt Disney World Resort, hopefully, in time for the
50th Anniversary Celebration.
Dorota, you may be able to upgrade your existing Walt Disney World Resort theme park tickets to include the Park Hopper® Option before your visit via your Disney account, if you are able to see a modification option when you access your
Tickets and Passes in
My Plans – Dining, Resort Hotel and Tickets beneath the
My Disney Experience planning tab, or if using the
My Disney Experience App by accessing the
Tickets and Passes tile on your
Welcome Dorota page. If speaking with and receiving assistance from a Cast Member is what you’re comfortable with, please feel free to contact the
Walt Disney World Resort – Help Center.
During your visit to
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, you might be able to upgrade your existing tickets (depending on the type of tickets you hold) by visiting the theme park ticket booth before entry, at a
Guest Relations Lobby inside the theme park, or before your visit to Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park by visiting the
Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs.
Dorota, please keep this current
Walt Disney World Resort – Ticket Expiration Timeline in mind as you consider any upgrades to your existing tickets.
The
Park Hopper® Option is a great way to experience multiple theme parks in one day – just remember that you will need to visit your first theme park of the day with a
Disney Park Pass – Theme Park Reservation and then at 2:00 PM or later, you are welcome to visit another theme park without a Theme Park Reservation, pending availability.
Tips:To save time waiting in lines for select attractions and experiences that offer the Lightning Lane entrance, using the My Disney Experience App you can purchase the Disney Genie+ service. Plus, when you purchase the
Disney Genie+ service, you’ll enjoy the
Disney PhotoPass Lenses – a special collection of Disney-themed lenses that bring forth augmented reality effects. And you’ll be able to listen to theme park fun facts, and backstage magic by listening to
Audio Tales right on the My Disney Experience App!
Book an early morning breakfast with Donald Duck and Friends over at
Tusker House to get a head start on your Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park tour.
Best Disney Wishes & See Ya Real Soon!Jacqueline
