Hi Jane,
Welcome to planDisney and thank you for taking us the time to send us your question, we really appreciate it! I am so happy to hear you are planning on visiting Walt Disney World Resort early next year, I am sure you will make some wonderful memories!
Guests are able to purchase Theme Park Tickets as well as make Theme Park Reservations online using the
Walt Disney World Resort website. Here, you will be able to customize your Theme Park Tickets to suit your needs, including the number of days you wish to visit and adding other options such as the Park Hopper Option and Park Hopper Plus Option. I strongly recommend purchasing your Theme Park Tickets prior to arrival, to ensure you will be able to make your Theme Park Reservations and guarantee entry into the Theme Park.
Once you have purchased your Theme Park Tickets, you will have access to the Disney Park Pass System through your
My Disney Experience Account to make your Theme Park Reservations. To do this, login to your My Disney Experience Account, and under the Parks & Tickets" tab select "
Theme Park Reservations". From there, follow the prompts to select your party, date and Theme Park to complete your reservation. Once your reservation is confirmed you will be able to manage all of your information including Theme Park Tickets and Theme Park Reservations in My Disney Experience.
I hope you have a magical time at Walt Disney World Resort, Jane. If you have any other questions as you continue to plan your visit please come back to
planDisney, we are always happy to help.
