    Is it possible to upgrade only 1 day to park hopper on a multi day pass? We are panning to go to WDW for 3 days and would like to park hop Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios on 1 day

    Greetings Robert and welcome back to planDisney! 

    You are one month away from beginning your magical adventure!  I’m sure you have your Mickey Ears all picked out and ready for action!  

    Robert, you cannot upgrade your multi-day ticket to a Park Hopper for just one of the three days.  The Park Hopper option can be added, but it must be for all of the days on your ticket. Even if you wait until the second or third day of your trip and want to upgrade that multi-day ticket, you would still be charged for the full price of the Park Hopper add-on for the full three days.  So, my recommendation, if your budget allows, is to purchase the Park Hopper option as soon as possible to give you flexibility for your entire trip! 

    You can easily do this on your My Disney Experience mobile app. Just select the “My Tickets & Passes” block and find the tickets you would like to modify and select “Change Ticket” and follow the prompts to add your Park Hopper Option.  There is an additional cost for this upgrade. If you are not able to complete this online, you can talk to a friendly Cast Member by phone and they will make the change, or you can visit a Guest Relations location at any of the theme parks to do the upgrade when you arrive on-site. 

    If it does fit into your budget for this trip, the Park Hopper will allow you to visit Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disney’s Animal Kingdom on the same day!  It will also give you the flexibility on your other days to hop to a second theme park for a dining reservation or to take advantage of longer operating hours for a particular park for that day.   

    Robert, the Park Hopper would also be a bonus if you were planning on adding the Lightning Lane Multi Pass benefit!  You can choose new attractions and experiences in any of the theme parks (subject to availability), not just the park where you start your day!  

    Robert, I know you will have a magical time, and I hope you get the chance to enjoy a Mickey Bar or two!
