Hello Marissa and welcome to planDisney!
You’ve made a great choice to stay at Walt Disney World Swan Hotel! My family loves the location next to the BoardWalk with easy access to EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Marissa, another great reason to stay at the Swan, is the benefit of purchasing Lightning Lane passes as early as 7 days prior to your arrival date!
If you select the
Lightning Lane Multi Pass option, you will be able to select up to three multi pass experiences and arrival windows in advance. You will be able to do this at 7:00am Eastern time on that seven-day mark so set your alarm and get ready for your first rope drop!
Speaking of rope drop, another
great benefit of staying at the Swan resort is the chance to use Early Theme Park entry! On the day you are using your theme park ticket, check the Early Theme Park entry time and take advantage of the extra thirty minutes in the park!
Marissa, one other date to think about is the 60-day mark before your arrival. This is the date you can make Disney dining reservations! I highly recommend
Beaches & Cream Soda Shop at Disney’s Beach Club Resort! It’s just a short walk from the Swan Resort and it is my family’s first choice for a late lunch on all of our trips to the magic! I can’t wait for my grilled cheese sandwich and onion rings followed by a No Way Jose! November can’t come soon enough for my next trip!
Marissa, have a great adventure and don’t forget to enjoy a Mickey Bar or two!
