Hiya Monique! Thanks for stopping by planDisney!
I hope you're getting excited about your upcoming trip to The Most Magical Place on Earth! Here at
planDisney, we're happy to help answer any questions you have about the planning process. Our goal is to use our own experience to make your trip as special as possible!
Theme park reservations are still required for entry at all four Walt Disney World Resort theme parks. Since your trip is just around the corner, you'll probably want to get started on this as soon as possible. The time leading up to and following Thanksgiving can be a popular time for Guests to visit, so I'd suggest that you start by checking out the
Theme Park Reservation Availability Calendar to see which parks are available on the days you'd like to visit.
Once you confirm the available dates and parks, you can make theme park reservations using the
Disney Park Pass Reservation System. Click "Make or Modify Theme Park Reservations," then log into your My Disney Experience Account if you haven't already. Then click "Book Park Reservation" or any other option that applies to your visit, select the Guests in your party and click "Continue." You'll then find a calendar showing the same availability you've already confirmed. Choose a date and a starting park, click "Continue," then confirm your reservation! You'll repeat this process for any additional dates. If you have a Park Hopper Ticket, you only need to make a reservation for the first park you will visit that day. After 2 p.m., you are eligible to hop to any other without advance notice.
Monique, be sure to carve out some time to visit the shopping and dining district of
Disney Springs! You can spend a full day here indulging in more low-key magic, like gift purchasing, dining and trying out all of the tasty treats at
Amorette's Patisserie or
Swirls on the Water! Grab a Dole Whip for me while you're at it!
Have a magical day,
Ashley
