Hello, William!
Thanks for coming back to planDisney. It's always a pleasure to help an old friend!
I'm a little jealous that your work sometimes brings you close to the
Disneyland Resort. It must be cool to create a spontaneous Disney moment from time to time!
The park reservation system is still in place, but I'm glad to share that you may still find availability within a few days of your visit. My husband and I often plan our trips last minute, and we hardly have any issues as long as we're not visiting during a holiday, for example.
It's also cool to know that you can reschedule your reservations and even
apply the value of wholly unused theme park tickets to purchase new tickets if your plans change. To ensure you have this option,
buying your tickets directly from the Disneyland Resort is essential, so don't forget this critical step.
I hope this answer helps you make the most of your work trips to Anaheim, William. Let us know if you need more help or advice. We'll always be here for you!
May the magic be with you,
Julie
