Hi there, Mike! Welcome back to planDisney!
Oh boy! I'm so excited to hear that you're headed to
Walt Disney World Resort so soon. Can you believe that in just a few days you'll be walking right down the middle of Main Street U.S.A.?! I would love to help you put the finishing touches of pixie dust on your magical vacation prior to your arrival so you can make the most of your trip!
The
Park Hopper Option is a great way to maximize the fun while at The Most Magical Place on Earth! On our trips, my husband and I often add the Park Hopper Option to our theme park tickets. We love beginning our morning in
Magic Kingdom Park, standing in front of
Cinderella Castle, then ending the day at
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge in
Disney's Hollywood Studios, which comes to life in new and exciting ways at night.
Mike, before you're able to park hop, you'll need to make sure that you've made your Theme Park Reservations with the
Disney Park Pass system! This is an important step to reserve the parks you wish to visit on each day of your trip. You'll need to make sure you visit that first park of the day, then you're welcome to hop to any other park (or multiple parks!) after 2:00 PM! Park hopping is subject to availability, but you will receive a notification on your phone through the My Disney Experience app if a park has reached its capacity.
Before your vacation, I'd suggest taking some time to download and explore the
My Disney Experience app. This app feels a little like holding a magic wand in your hand, unlocking everything that Walt Disney World Resort has to offer. You'll be able to view park maps, check wait times for attractions, and even
mobile order food. I love knowing that my meals and snacks will be ready and waiting for me right when I'd like them!
I hope I was able to answer your question about park hopping today, Mike. If you have any other questions, please visit us again. After all - you've got a friend in me!
See ya real soon!
Michelle
