    Hello! How do we guarantee entrance into a park for dining reservations on Chrismtas Day? I hear parks close by 12 noon. Our flight arrives at 11am (God willing) so what if a park is at capacity? We are staying on sight. What do we do? Thanks!

    Hi Lara,

    My family were at Walt Disney World over Christmas and New Year last year and I can honestly say that there is nowhere more magical to spend the holidays!

    I'm afraid that there is no way to guarantee entry into a particular Disney park on Christmas Day. If a park has reached capacity before you arrive, you will not be allowed to enter that park even if you have a dining reservation at a restaurant located within it.

    It is not uncommon for parks to reach capacity on Christmas Day particularly the Magic Kingdom and my best advice to you would be to make a dining reservation at a restaurant within one of the Disney Resort Hotels.

    Wishing you a magical trip!
