Hey there Hi there Ho there Shannon!
Congratulations on being a member of the
Magic Key program at the
Disneyland Resort! I have been enjoying mine for several months. Just yesterday I was able to get a hold of one of the popcorn buckets that is
exclusive to Magic Key members and my son and I are still enjoying it!
I’ve got great news for you Shannon: All magic key reservations are park hopping reservations!
Both the
Disneyland Park and the
Disney California Adventure Park maintain a daily maximum capacity, ensuring that Happiest Place On Earth feels as magical as possible! Reservations can be made up to 120 days in advance online.
As a member of the Magic Key program, you need to make a reservation for the park where you choose to start your adventure. However, after 1pm, you are free to hop a carpet and fly to either the Disneyland Park or the Disney California Adventure park as much as you like.
Since I usually visit the resort in the late afternoon, whenever I make a reservation, I am in the habit of choosing Disney’s California Adventure as my “option”, because as long as I arrive at the resort after 1pm, I can scan my Magic Key pass in the
Disneyland Mobile App at either park.
Breaking news: Shannon: Starting on
February 4, 2023, all Park Hopper tickets and Magic Keys will be able to move between either of the parks as much as they would like to after 11am! I love how much more flexibility that will create for me and my family.
I hope this answers your question about how to make the most out of your reserved day at the Disneyland Resort parks, Shannon. If you have follow-up questions, I’d love to help you make your Disney dreams come true! You are welcome to
message me directly now that you've got a friend in me!
See ya real soon!
