    My family has one day left from our Disneyland 3 day park hopper tickets, which expire May 21. But there are zero reservations available before then. Can we extend the tickets until reservations are available?

    Hi there, Julie! Welcome to planDisney. I see you were able to grab a fantastic deal with the California Resident 3-Day Park Hopper Ticket! You’re definitely in the right mindset to enjoy the magic while taking advantage of those savings. As you get closer to the final weeks of its usage, let’s see how you can make that last visit happen!

    It’s a common trend for fellow Guests who are in the same boat, trying to use that final day before the May 21 expiration date for these particular tickets. I know that date is coming up quickly, which can definitely add a bit of pressure when trying to lock in that last reservation. Many Guests have a tricky time securing their final park day, but plenty are successful by sticking with this tried and true strategy. The best tip is to check the reservation calendar as often as you can, since this gives you the best chance of finding availability. As your desired date approaches, Guests will often cancel their reservations as plans change, which can open up new spots for you, sometimes even the day before or the morning of. As Gazelle from Zootopia says, “Try everything!” Keep checking often, and you’ll be more likely to secure that park reservation before the clock strikes midnight!

    Julie, thank you so much for visiting planDisney! I hope this information is helpful as you continue planning your upcoming trip. I’m wishing on the stars that you’re able to grab a park reservation, and with a little persistence, I have a good feeling you will! If you have any more questions, planDisney is here to help!
