Hello there, Karen!
Welcome to planDisney with an excellent question. It is a pleasure to help you prepare for all the pixie-dusted memories you will soon make at the Walt Disney World Resort!
I am happy to hear you will be our Guest at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort. Besides immersing yourself in Disney magic during your stay, you will also have the chance to take advantage of benefits like Early Theme Park Entry, complimentary transportation, and more. Speaking of complimentary transportation, one of my favorite things about staying at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort is using the
Disney Skyliner to travel to EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Guests staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel and other select hotels can take advantage of
Early Theme Park Entry and enter the parks 30 minutes before the official theme park opening time. To confirm Early Entry hours and regular theme park hours, please check the
Hours & Events Calendar online. You can also check park hours on the home screen of the My Disney Experience mobile app. Please note complimentary transportation is available from Disney Resort hotels to the parks for Guests who wish to enjoy Early Theme Park Entry.
I hope this information is helpful, Karen. Do not hesitate to stop by once again if you have additional questions, and have a magical visit to the Walt Disney World Resort!
Best Disney wishes,
Thiana
