Hi there, Richard. Welcome to
planDisney. Thanks for dropping by to chit-chat about your upcoming
Walt Disney World vacation.
Richard, I can't think of a better way to kick off a new year other than with a trip to Walt Disney World. That is going to be so much fun!
Park hopping is my favorite way to spend a Disney day. I love visiting the Walt Disney World Theme Parks bright and early to be able to enjoy some of my favorite attractions with little to no wait. Then, around lunchtime when the parks tend to be their busiest I enjoy heading back to the Walt Disney World Resort Hotel that I happen to be staying at for an afternoon swim. After I've had my fill of fun in the Florida sun, I like to clean up and head over to
EPCOT for snacking and sipping around The World Showcase for dinner.
Walt Disney World encourages Guests to make dining reservations for the theme park they have
park pass reservations at that day. That is the only way to 100% guarantee that you'll be able to dine at that particular restaurant. If a park that you are hopping to is closed due to capacity, you won't be able to enter even if you have dining reservations. With all of that being said, typically the theme parks only close for a few hours on their busiest days like Christmas Day and New Year's Day. Coming in a day later, I don't think you'll have to worry about this too much.
I hope this helps ease your mind, Richard. If you have any other questions before you go, please feel free to
reach back out to me. I'm here to help.
Happy holidays!
Jackie H.
