Hi Bernadette!
Welcome to planDisney!
If your tickets are date-based (meaning they have a start and end date), you likely do not need park reservations for your
Disney World vacation. In that case, you’ll be more than welcome to hop to any park throughout the day, pending park capacity, as long as you have that valid
park hopper linked to your account.
There are some ticket types that still require park reservations at this time, though, including
Annual Passes, military tickets, and convention tickets. If you have a ticket type that requires park reservations, you can
make your reservations at this link. You will only need a park reservation for the very first park you plan to visit for the day. Then, after you scan into the park, you’ll be able to hop to any other park without a reservation (again, pending park capacity).
If you’re not quite sure if you need a park reservation or if you just want peace of mind, I recommend attempting to make a park reservation. Once you have your tickets linked to your account, you can go through the process of making a park reservation. During the step where you choose your ticket, it will either allow you to select your ticket, or your ticket will be listed under a section that states you do not need a park reservation. That way, you know one way or the other!
I hope that helps! And that you have a wonderful trip to end the year! If you have any other questions as you continue to plan, feel free to come back and visit us.
