    Hello! We are coming on the 7th November 2026, we are not staying in Disney property. When am I able to book dining reservations and pay for lightning lanes and multi passes? Thanks so much

    Hello Hannah and welcome back to planDisney! 

    November can't come soon enough for me!  My next trip to the magic is in November and even though I want the last few days of summer to slow down, I am ready for my visit with Mickey and Minnie and all my planDisney friends! 

    Hannah, your dining reservation booking window will open 60 days before your arrival date. Since you are not staying at a Disney Resort hotel, you will need to make reservations on a day-by-day basis.  If you were staying at a Disney Resort hotel, you would be able to book your reservations at that 60-day mark for the entire length of your stay, up to 10 days.  You will need to make your reservations one day at a time for the length of your stay. So, plan on setting your alarm each morning to get the best choices! Reservations usually open around 6:00 am Eastern Time on the website or the My Disney Experience mobile app.  

     The Lightning Lane Multi Pass can be purchased 3 days before the first day of your ticket if you have a date-based theme park ticket and you are not staying at a Disney Resort hotel. Any other ticket types can purchase Lightning Lane passes 3 days before their park visit if they are staying off-site. 

    Hannah, November is going to be a great time to visit! I hope you get a chance to party with Mickey and Minnie at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party!  I'm all set to put on my Mickey holiday sweater and join in on the festivities at the Magic Kingdom! I'm also going to join Jack Skellington for the first time at Disney Jollywood Nights at Disney's Hollywood Studios!  These extra ticketed events are always great fun, and I am so excited for November!  I'm sure you are too! 

    Hannah, have a magical adventure and don't forget to enjoy a Mickey Bar or two!
