Hiya, Michelle! Thanks for popping in with your question.
There are so many things to think about when planning a
Walt Disney World vacation! It's part of the reason we are here. Since you've already purchased your
theme park tickets, you probably already know whether or not your passes have the park hopper option added to them. Let's talk about how that works.
If your ticket has the
park hopper option, you only need to make a
theme park reservation for one theme park - the one where you want to begin your day. You do have to enter that park at some point to scan your ticket, but once it hits 2 PM, you are then free to hop on over to any of the other available theme parks. There is no need to make reservations to park hop.
I love the park hopper option. You can start your day with a
50th Anniversary cavalcade on Main Street, U.S.A. at
Magic Kingdom Park, score a late afternoon snack at
Oga's Cantina at
Disney's Hollywood Studios, and end the evening with dinner at
Space 220 and the Harmonious show at
EPCOT. The park hopper lets you build the kind of day you want to have.
I hope you plan a practically perfect vacation, Michelle. Do come back and visit us if there's anything else we can help with.
Anna
