Welcome back, Amy! I’m so glad you’ve HOPPED over to planDisney with this question and I’m thrilled that you’ve already secured your
Disney Park Pass reservations!
Amy, each family enjoys the theme parks differently and when my Mouseketeers were younger, we always purchased
1 Park Per Day tickets, but as they’ve gotten older, we have loved
taking advantage of Park Hopping!
I’m happy to report that you ARE able to upgrade your tickets at any point prior to your stay or even while at the Walt Disney World Resort by visiting Guest Relations, any ticket window or the lobby concierge of your Disney Resorts Collection hotel. Should you choose to modify your ticket, please keep in mind that
you must upgrade the ticket for the entire length of the ticket. So, for example, if you have a 5-day ticket, you will need to upgrade for the full five days (
even if you have used a portion of the ticket), so I highly recommend making your decision prior to visiting your first park.
Amy, I hope this information is useful as you’re dreaming about fall at the Walt Disney World Resort. Since you’ll be visiting in September, did you see the announcement about
the newest After-Hours event coming to Magic Kingdom Park: “Disney After Hours BOO BASH”? I can’t wait to see my favorite characters in their Halloween finest and enjoy the spooky vibes throughout the park. If you're interested in this separately ticketed event, keep a close watch on the Disney Parks Blog for more information.
Whether you decide to spend full days at one park or hop around, I'll be wishing that your vacation is Magical! Please come back and see us hEAR at planDisney with any other questions you might have.
Lauren
