Hey there, hi there, Amy!
Thanks for visiting planDisney, where you're always as welcome as can be. I'd be delighted to assist a fellow Mouseketeer today!
As a Guest of
Disney's Old Key West Resort, you're eligible to attend
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours. If you plan to visit a different theme park earlier that day, you must have the Park Hopper Option to enter the theme park offering Extended Evening Theme Park Hours. For example, my family plans to visit
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park next week on an evening when
EPCOT is open late to Guests of Deluxe and Deluxe Villa resorts. To enter EPCOT that night, we must have park hopper tickets. A quick tip: for select attractions with
Virtual Queues (currently
TRON Lightcycle/Run and
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind), you can request to join their Virtual Queue at 6 PM on extended evening hours nights.
I hope this is helpful, Amy. If you need to add the Park Hopper option to an existing
ticket, you can usually do so online or on the
My Disney Experience mobile app. From the app, tap the three parallel lines in the bottom right corner of the home screen to bring up the welcome menu. From here, tap the tile labeled "My Tickets & Passes." Find the ticket you'd like to upgrade and click "Change Ticket." Sometimes, you'll get an alert that your ticket cannot be modified at this time. In that case, you can wait until you arrive at Walt Disney World and stop by a theme park ticketing window or Guest Relations to make the change.
Thanks again for stopping by planDisney. If there is anything else we can do to make your October stay even more special, don't hesitate to write back. We're all ears, and we love to help! Best wishes for a memorable vacation, and have a magical day!
