Hi Michelle, welcome to planDisney. As a fellow U.K. resident, the
14-Day Magic Ticket has whisked us away on many a magical holiday. Its outstanding benefits, such as Memory Maker and Park Hopper, make it the top-notch option in my book!
Michelle, if you haven't already done so, please download the
My Disney Experience App. You'll be able to link your 14-Day Magic Ticket (and you can benefit from adding your reservation at
Walt Disney World Swan Hotel - more on that in a minute). So, if you arrive at 8 pm and want to head straight to the Parks, you can open up your app, and your linked tickets can be scanned by one of the super friendly Cast Members, and away you go into the Most Magical Place on Earth. If you would like a physical card, Guest services have always been able to help, but it's not needed to enter the Parks. The process is the same if you would like to relax on the first evening and put that jet lag to good use by hitting the Parks early the following morning. Please remember, Guests need
Park Reservations in addition to their tickets.
Linking your Walt Disney World Swan Hotel reservation in My Disney Experience means that you can make
dining reservations for your stay (up to a 10-nights) at once, up to 60 days before your arrival! Some of the most popular restaurants book up quickly, so if you have a must-do, like
Topolino's Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera, it's a perk worth using, as is the extra time available to resort Guests in the Parks!
I hope this information helps Michelle. Please do pop back if you need anything else. Enjoy making unforgettable memories on your Walt Disney World adventure, Louise.
