Bonjour Helen Anne and welcome to planDisney!
How exciting that you're planning a visit to my favourite European holiday destination -
Disneyland Paris!
Extra Magic Time is a fantastic perk available to
all Guests staying at a
Disney Hotel. It does not matter whether you booked a Hotel + Ticket package or, individually booked your Hotel and Disney Park Tickets.
My family always take advantage of Extra Magic Time when we visit as it's a great way to tick off a few must-do's before the Disney Parks open to the general public.
Here are my top pick attractions to ride during Extra Magic Time:-
Disneyland ParkPeter Pan's Flight
Buzz Lightyear Laser Blast
Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain
Walt Disney Studios ParkCrush's Coaster
Spider-Man W.E.B. Adventure
Extra Magic Time is also really useful for meeting Disney Characters with lower wait times at Disneyland Park. You will normally find Winnie the Pooh on your right-hand side as you enter the park and Stitch on the right-hand side towards the top of Main Street U.S.A. (Please do be aware however that characters are always subject to change.)
This is also a great time to take some lovely photos inside the two Disney Parks without having as many Guests in the background.
Top Tip - You can check the times and park(s) where Extra Magic Time will be available in the
Park Hours section of the Disneyland Paris website, 3 months in advance of your arrival.
I hope that this has answered your question, Helen Anne. Please feel free to re-visit us, here at planDisney, if we can be of any further help with the planning of your trip. You can even
ask me a question directly if you would like to.
Wishing you a magical holiday filled with memories which will last a lifetime!
Emma
