Greetings, Scottie, and welcome to planDisney! With a theme park ticket, you're halfway to fun and memorable adventures at the Happiest Place on Earth. Let's make sure you're all set for a magical day!
As you know, each Guest aged three and older needs both a valid ticket and a park reservation to enter Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park. If you purchased your ticket
on the Disneyland website or mobile app, you likely already made your park reservation during the transaction. Otherwise, you'll need to link your ticket and
make a reservation.
I like managing my tickets and reservations in the
Disneyland mobile app. Here's what to do:
- Check your ticket: After signing into your MyDisney account, tap the icon at the bottom of the screen with the three horizontal lines (≡), and then tap "My Tickets & Passes." If your ticket is there, great! If it's not, tap the plus sign icon at the top of the screen, tap "Link Tickets & Passes" and follow the prompt to add your ticket.
- Make a reservation: In the app, tap the plus (+) icon at the bottom of the screen and tap "Make a Park Reservation." Then tap the "Make or Modify Park Reservations" button. If you already have a reservation, it will appear on this screen. If you don't have one, tap the "Book Theme Park Reservation" button, select your ticket, and then choose your date and park! Make sure to tap the "Confirm" button at the end.
If you have a one-park-per-day ticket, the park you select for your reservation will be the one you can visit on the day you select. If you have a
Park Hopper ticket, you'll start your day at the park you select, and can cross into the other park (or enter either park for the first time) after 11 a.m., as long as it hasn’t reached capacity. If, when making a reservation, you see a slash through a date, it means there are no reservations available, but you can keep checking to see if that changes!
While you're in the park, use the app to check attraction wait times,
mobile order food, view showtimes, see when and where to find Characters, locate restrooms and various shops, and more. If you have the
Lightning Lane Multi Pass, this is how you'll select your attraction arrival windows.
Scottie, if you have any other questions about visiting the Disneyland Resort, please reach out. We're always happy to help here at planDisney!
Wishing you magic,
Kriss
