Hello, Jennifer!
Welcome to planDisney! I am so excited to hEAR that you will be visiting the Walt Disney World Resort in just a few weeks. The
50th Anniversary Celebration is still in full swing. So many new attractions and experiences were created just for the event. My favorite is
Disney’s Fab 50 Character Collection. You will find 50 golden sculptures on display in all 4 theme parks. They will also interact with the new MagicBand+ that will be coming out soon.
Park hopping is one of my favorite ways to see more of all the parks. Since the phased reopening of the Walt Disney World Resort, Guests can park hop to another park after 2:00 PM, provided they have the
Park Hopper Option added to their ticket and have a
park pass reservation for the first park they plan to visit, and have already scanned into that park before 2:00 PM.
When it comes to upgrading your regular 5-day park ticket with Park Hopper Option you will have to upgrade all the days on your ticket. Unfortunately, the Park Hopper Option cannot be added to just one day of your ticket. The system will charge you for all 5 days to upgrade. This would give you the option to experience more magic from other parks. I typically like to start my morning in one park when it opens and take an afternoon break back at my resort in the middle of the day. After a dip in the pool or a power nap, I am refreshed and ready to spend the evening in another park until closing.
I know this was not the magical answer you were looking for, but Park Hopping will add to the adventure of your day.
See ya real soon,
Andrea
