    Hi! If I have a hotel + 2 day tickets reservation. Do I need to reserve which park Im going to on each day? Or I just show up at the park on the day of the ticket?

    Hello, Daniela,

    I'm so glad to welcome you back to planDisney and thrilled to hear about your upcoming visit to a Walt Disney World Resort!

    If you booked a room and ticket vacation package directly through Disney, or you purchased date-based standard theme park (or Park Hopper Option) tickets, you will not need to make any additional reservations to visit the parks. Just be sure your admission is properly linked to your My Disney account, and you’ve decided on a mode of entry like a MagicBand+ or Disney Magic Mobile pass before heading to the park entrance of your choice.

    While you are free to choose your desired park on the day of your visit, I do recommend planning advance dining reservations ahead of your arrival. As a Disney Resorts Collection hotel guest, you can book dining reservations 60 days before check-in for your length of stay (up to 10 days). I usually like to schedule one Table Service meal per day to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the parks, so give some thought to where you might be and which restaurants you are most interested in trying. If a sit-down meal doesn’t suit your vacation style, you are free to enjoy Quick-Service and snack locations without any advance planning. Download the My Disney Experience app once you arrive in the US to utilize Mobile Ordering and save time waiting for your favorite bites at select locations.

    Speaking of favorite bites, the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival will be in full swing during your trip, so you might want to make EPCOT a must-visit. The Disney Eats Foodie Guide for this year's festival hasn't been released just yet, but if the lineup is anything like last year's, you'll likely find plenty of flavors to sip and savor. You'll also find a pretty fantastic musical lineup as part of the festival's Eat to the Beat Concert Series. I'm excited to see The Beach Boys during my November trip!

    Daniela, I hope this clears up any confusion, but if you still have additional questions, come right back and let us know. We're always glad to help!

    Magic and memories,
    Amy
