Hiya Ashleigh,
Welcome back to planDisney. What a perfect way to ring in the new yEAR - with a trip to
Walt Disney World Resort! The holidays are my absolute favorite time to visit as the theme parks and
Disney Resorts Collection hotels are bursting with festive colors and decorations, and there are so many special events and entertainment to enjoy. It is truly the most wonderful time of the yEAR!
Luckily, the theme parks rarely reach capacity limitations however the holiday season is one of the few times of the year when capacity could be a concern. The good news is Guests residing at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel are given priority over Guests that are not staying onsite. Additionally, I spoke with a number of Cast Members who have advised, even if a theme park reaches capacity Guests with a valid theme park reservation are guaranteed re-entry should they choose to leave for part of the day. This means, you are able to head back to your resort and recharge at the pool, before returning to the theme park for your evening festivities.
Bonus tip- be sure to plan some time to head over to Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa to visit the amazing life size gingerbread house. If I can help with any additional planning questions, please stop back and
see me.
Wishing you a magical vacation,
Margaret
