    Hello If I purchase a 3 day hopper ticket, can I use 1 ticket to go to 2 different parks on the same day? ie morning at Animal Kingdom evening at Magic Kingdom, next day again 2 different theme parks, and on the 3 day again 2 different parks?

    Hiya, Maria!

    I'm thrilled to welcome you to planDisney! Your Walt Disney World vacation is coming up so soon...I can practically feel the magic from here! It sounds like you have a fun-filled trip in the works, packed with plenty of time to explore the parks, hop on your favorite attractions, watch unforgettable shows, and take in all those magical details that make Disney so special. I can already tell you're going to make so many wonderful memories during your adventure!

    I'm so happy to tell you that with a Park Hopper ticket, you can totally visit more than one theme park in a single day...that's exactly what it's designed for! It's the perfect way to mix things up and squeeze in even more Disney magic. You could start your morning bright and early at Animal Kingdom, hopping on a safari ride and soaring on the back of a banshee through Pandora. Then, later in the day, hop over to Magic Kingdom to race through Space Mountain, launch into the grid on TRON, and finish your evening catching the brand new nighttime parade, Starlight.

    To help your days run smoothly and to give you the chance to enjoy as many attractions as possible, you might want to consider purchasing Lightning Lane Multi Pass and/or Single Pass. These options let you choose up to three attractions along with specific arrival windows for your day, so you can skip the regular standby lines and get right to the fun. Once you scan in for your first attraction, you can book another selection. This can even be for the park you're hopping to later in the day, as long as there's availability. From there, you can keep making one new selection each time you scan in, again pending availability.

    If you're staying at a Disney Resort, you get a head start and can purchase Lightning Lane passes 7 days before your check-in date starting at 7:00 AM Eastern Time, right in the My Disney Experience app. All other Guests can make their purchases 3 days before their park visit.

    Maria, I hope this information helps, and you have the most magical visit at the most magical place! Thanks for stopping by planDisney! 

    See ya real soon,
