Hi there, Kim! Thank you for coming to us here at planDisney with your Walt Disney World vacation question.
When you purchase a 2-day park hopper ticket, you are correct that the tickets are good for ANY 2 days in the ticket window. So, you can absolutely use that ticket for Thursday and Friday when you are there. Once you have the ticket confirmation number, you can link it into your MyDisneyExperience. Then, you can make your theme park reservations for Thursday and Friday.
When you are visiting Walt Disney World during The Most Magical Celebration on Earth, be sure to have your eyes peeled to find the
Fab 50 Character Collection Golden Statues that are scattered throughout the four theme parks.
Also, since you have a park hopper ticket, you can plan to head to a second theme park beginning at 2:00 PM each day. You can check park hopper availability right on your
MyDisneyExperience mobile app. To do this, open the app, select the three lines in the lower right corner. Then, select “Park Hours & Info”. Here, you will see each theme park listed with its hours for the day, then early entry, and then park hopper availability.
On our trip in September, we found that our favorite “hop” was from EPCOT to Disney’s Hollywood Studios on the
Skyliner, which is located just outside EPCOT's International Gateway entrance. This trip takes about 20 minutes and gives your feet a nice rest. When we arrived to DHS, we saw that the wait time for
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance was showing 40 minutes on the app. We rushed right there and got into the queue. We only waited for 22 minutes for the attraction! It was the shortest wait I’ve ever had.
I hope you have a wonderful visit to Walt Disney World in less than a month!
Happy Hopping,
Tracy
