Hiya, Frank! Welcome, welcome! It's a pleasure having you here at
planDisney. Thanks a bunch for stopping by with your great question!
By the looks of it, you will be joining the World's Most Magical Celebration at the
Walt Disney World Resort during one of the most wonderful times of the year, and I'm super excited for you! I actually had the chance to spend New Year's Eve at the Walt Disney World Resort back in 2009, and I remember being completely mesmerized by EVERYTHING that was happening around me. Plus, with the 50th Anniversary celebration going on, you'll have even more to see and do!
Frank, I'm so glad that you're thinking about purchasing
Theme Park tickets with the Park Hopper Plus Option. To put it simply, a 3-day Park Hopper Plus ticket will let you enter any of the four Theme Parks for three days (as long as you've made Park Pass reservations in advance, of course) and then "hop" to any other Theme Park after 2 p.m. on the same day. In addition to this, you will also have the option to experience the Water Parks three times. You're welcome to organize your calendar however you see fit, as long as you use these "plus" options within the timeframe that Disney has set for your specific tickets.
Let me explain this a little bit further, my friend. Let's say that you're planning on spending your first morning at
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park, after which you'll stop by Magic Kingdom Park in the evening to catch Disney Enchantment. In this case, you'll use up one of your Theme Park ticket days as well as one of your "plus" options. Now, let's pretend that you'd like to spend the next morning at Disney's Hollywood Studios and hop to EPCOT for lunch and dinner. In this case, you'll use up one of your Theme Park ticket days, but none of your "plus" options, leaving you with one more Theme Park day and two more "plus" options to use.
Keep in mind that you'll be able to decide when to use your Theme Park tickets as well as your "plus" options, Frank. What I mean by this is that you will absolutely be able to stretch out your vacation to last six days if that's what you want. For example, you could visit a Theme Park and a Water Park on alternating days in order to rest up a bit! Or, if you'd like to visit a Water Park and a Theme Park on the same day for three days, you're welcome to do that as well. As you can see, the Park Hopper Plus option is super flexible, and the way you use up your tickets really is up to you!
I hope that my answer has helped clarify things for you, my friend. Please don't hesitate to
pay me a visit if you need anything else! I'm always more than happy to help.
Ta-ta for now,
Ana Paula
