Hey there, Sean, and welcome back to planDisney! June is just around the corner - so your Walt Disney World Vacation will be here before you know it!
Staying on property at a
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel is one of the perfect ways to make sure your vacation begins from the moment you step foot on the grounds of your resort. And the perks of choosing a Disney Deluxe hotel just keep getting sweeter and sweeter! The addition of Extended Evening Theme Park hours for guests of Disney Deluxe Resorts and Disney Deluxe Villas is one that I’ve definitely used to my advantage. And if you combine the
Extended Evening Theme Park hours with the
Early Theme Park Entry for Disney Resort hotel guests, you can truly maximize your park days!
Sean, since you purchased tickets with the Park Hopper option, I’m happy to confirm that YES - your party is eligible to take advantage of Extended Evening Theme Park hours. You can absolutely begin your day at
EPCOT - make sure to spend some time exploring
EPCOT’s International Flower and Garden Festival - and then park hop to
Magic Kingdom Park after 2 pm. Keep in mind that you only need a Theme Park Reservation for the first Theme Park you plan to visit and that you have to physically scan your ticket at the park where you have a reservation before you will be eligible to park hop at 2 pm. And since you’re staying in
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort, the fact that you can walk directly to Magic Kingdom makes it even more convenient to hop over to Magic Kingdom and close out a magical day!
I hope this helps, Sean! Your Walt Disney World vacation is calling!
Until Next TIme,
PG
