Hello and welcome to planDisney, Richard!
Thank you for stopping by with an excellent question! I am happy to hear that you will soon be making magical
holiday memories at the Walt Disney World Resort!
Guests who decide to
Be Our Guest at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel find themselves immersed in Disney magic during their stay while enjoying pixie-dusted benefits like proximity to the theme parks and complimentary transportation. In addition, as part of
The World’s Most Magical Celebration, Guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel can enjoy
early theme park entry at all four theme parks. This benefit is available each day at all four theme parks (subject to capacity). Please note that you will need valid admission and a theme park reservation. You can check Early Entry times via the
My Disney Experience mobile app.
Guests staying at Disney Deluxe Resort Hotels or Disney Deluxe Villas can also enjoy
Extended Evening Hours at select theme parks on select nights. For Extended Evening Hours, you will have to present a Key to the World card or a MagicBand, valid admission, and a theme park reservation for the same park on the same date. If you have tickets with
Park Hopper option, be sure to enter the park where you have a reservation earlier in the day before enjoying Extended Evening Hours at another park.
I hope this information is helpful, Richard! Come back to visit us if you have additional questions and have a magical visit to the Walt Disney World Resort!
