Hey there, Dan! Thanks for stopping by planDisney with your question. You must be super excited for your upcoming visit, especially since you want to extend the magic by a day!
Dan, typically,
theme park tickets can be upgraded once you arrive at the parks, at the main entrance ticket booth. However, since you may not want to wait until arrival and take a chance that theme park reservations aren’t available, I recommend contacting
Ticket Services via phone or through the “Chat with Us” feature in the
Disneyland mobile app as soon as possible, as reservations can come and go quickly.
Park Hopper tickets are truly great at Disneyland Resort because the parks are so close together. I counted my steps from gate to gate – 116 total! I was there with my daughters two weeks ago just for a day, and we hopped back and forth five times during the day. We used
Disney Genie+ service as well which significantly reduced our time waiting in queues. If you want to add Genie+ service to your day, you can do that through the Disneyland mobile app as soon as you enter through the turnstile.
Sending you a pinch of pixie dust for good luck to get your new tickets secured.
Adventure is out there!
