Hi Karen! Welcome to planDisney! Maximizing your time in the Disney Parks is a great planning strategy! Fortunately, the Walt Disney World Resort offers
Early Theme Park Entry and
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours! I’ll explain the difference!
Early Theme Park Entry is a complimentary perk offered to Guests staying at any Walt Disney World Resort hotel – value, moderate, or deluxe! Guests can enter any park, any day, 30 minutes before the posted park opening time! Valid theme park admission is required.
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours is a perk that is available to Guests staying at a deluxe Walt Disney World Resort hotel. Extended Theme Park hours are available on select nights at select parks. The park remains open a few hours beyond the posted closing time.
Don’t forget, Karen, as a Guest of a Walt Disney World Resort hotel you have complimentary transportation that will get you to the Early Theme Park Entry benefit in plenty of time!
Dreams do come true!
Jonathan
