Hi Jennifer! Thanks for visiting planDisney! You must be so excited for your 2025 visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth! Congratulations on booking your resort and theme park ticket package! Staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel will truly immerse you in all the magic (and the great benefits) of staying there!
Jennifer, when you purchased your hotel and ticket package you were probably prompted to provide a “start date” for your ticket package. Selecting a start date opens the window of days you have to use your park tickets. You don’t need to check in at the front desk of your resort hotel to activate your theme park tickets. Your chosen start date and online check-in through your My Disney Experience app will activate your tickets!
Jennifer, I mentioned the great benefits of staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel! Your benefits include extra time in the parks every day! Guests can enter the Disney Parks 30 minutes before the scheduled opening time with the
Early Theme Park Entry benefit! You can do this on any day, at any park! And, if you happen to be staying at a deluxe Walt Disney World Resort hotel, you can take advantage of the
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours benefit! This benefit allows Guests of deluxe accommodations to remain in select theme parks, on select nights, for two additional hours after the park closes for other Guests!
You’ve got plenty of time to continue your planning! That means you have plenty of time to continue sending questions to planDisney! We’re here when you need us! Come on back when you have additional questions!
Dreams do come true!
