Hiya Sharon!
Welcome to planDisney! We're so glad that you reached out to us hEAR with this
Disneyland Resort vacation planning question!
Oh boy! It sounds like you're ready for your vacation located in the middle of the magic! I think you're going to love being able to call a
Disneyland Resort Hotel 'home' for your stay. One of my favorite Disneyland Resort Hotel factoids is that these three properties are closer to the parks than the parks are to the theme park parking lots; your crew will be in your PJs before others even get off the parking lot tram!
Since the reopening from the historic pandemic closure, physical
Theme Park Admission Tickets are no longer mailed ahead of time for guests who purchase passes and packages online. Instead, you'll be issued paper tickets upon first entry to the first park of your visit. This means you'll need to have your electronic passes pulled up and ready to go for first use, but can decide to use your e-passes or paper tickets for each entry thereafter. Another heads up is that each Mouseketeer in your party will have their picture taken as soon as their ticket is scanned that first time; I like to line my crew up in the turnstile entrance queue in the order that our tickets will be scanned as that makes taking our pictures that much easier.
Pro Tip: You can either use your e-tickets directly from the
Disneyland Mobile App, or you can save them to your mobile wallet. If saved to a mobile wallet, you might even be able to pull them up from a smartwatch!
I hope that this helped to clEAR your question up, Sharon! Be sure to follow the
