Hi Alisia! Thanks so much for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Disney Resort Hotel Packages are fantastic and I know you will love every magical moment of your four day ticket package.
While you don't have to make your selections in advance, if you plan now, it will help you maximize your time in the theme parks. Guests staying at select Walt Disney World Resort hotels can enjoy
Extra Magic Hours. Extra Magic Hours are scheduled before or after normal theme park operating hours and allow Guests to enjoy attractions and extra time in the theme park.
Even if Extra Magic Hours don't fit into your schedule, I highly recommend you make
FastPass+ selections prior to your visit. Begin by creating your My Disney Experience account and linking everyone in your traveling party through your Family & Friends list. As your vacation nears, the fun will begin! You can begin making your FastPass+ selections up to 30 days in advance of your visit beginning at 7:00 AM Eastern Time. If you are staying at a Disney Resort hotel, you can make your FastPass+ selections up to 60 days prior to check-in for the entire length of your stay. It’s so exciting! You can reserve up to three FastPass+ selections per day. Once you have redeemed your initial three FastPass+ selections, you can continue making FastPass+ selections one at a time throughout the day. It’s a great way to maximize your time in the theme parks! If your plans change, you can modify your FastPass+ selections. FastPass+ has transformed the way we vacation. I know you will love it!
