Hello, Owen!
Thank you for reaching out to planDisney with your questions about your upcoming trip. I'm happy to help you today! It's always wonderful to welcome Guests from the Show-Me State to The Most Magical Place on Earth. Let's get to your question.
Regarding
theme park reservations, you can make them through your
My Disney Experience app or on the
official Disney website. Depending on the type of tickets you have, theme park reservations may not be required. You can
check the website to see if your tickets require a reservation.
The process is straightforward: after selecting each person in your family who needs a reservation, you can choose which theme park you'd like to visit. You can modify reservations later if your plans change. You are absolutely right! Having your park reservations in place is essential for booking Lightning Lanes once your window opens.
If you encounter any issues making your reservations, feel free to
call Disney or speak with a friendly Cast Member, who will ensure everything is in order so your future planning goes smoothly.
While you're on the website, be sure to check what's happening at Walt Disney World Resort. I always like to see if there's a festival at EPCOT or browse restaurant menus in advance. This helps me have a game plan when it comes to booking dining reservations.
Currently, the
International Food & Wine Festival is underway. If you visit EPCOT during any festival, I recommend looking at the menus for each pavilion and making a list of your must-try items. This way, you can be sure to enjoy your favorites without feeling overwhelmed by the many delicious options.
Owen, it's been a pleasure assisting you today. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions!
Your personal planning companion,
Michelle
