Welcome, Justin! Thanks for bringing your question to planDisney!
How exciting that you'll be spending
Halloween Time in Disneyland Resort this year! I love your idea of using a
Park Hopper ticket to enjoy both theme parks on the same day. In my experience, it is definitely the best way to maximize your visit. You'll have the opportunity to make a
park reservation to start your day, then cross over and enjoy more than one theme park during the eligible Park Hopper hours! The good news is that the Park Hopper benefit applies to all days of your ticket purchase for a single fee. There is currently no option to apply it to only one day.
If you wish to upgrade your ticket type, I suggest
calling a Cast Member using the Tickets line. They can assist you with this process and inform you of any other potential ticket options. You may also request an upgrade at the Main Entrance ticket booths. One caution I have is that a ticket upgrade will cancel your existing park reservations since reservations are tied to a Guest's ticket. I would recommend ensuring that theme park reservations are still available for your new ticket type and selected dates by using the
Theme Park Reservation Availability Calendar.
I hope this is helpful, Justin. And, I hope you have an absolute spell-binding time in Disneyland Resort this Halloween season. Be sure to check out the recent
