Hi Steve,
Thank you for stopping by planDisney with your great vacation planning question!
I also want to commend you for having your next year's holiday plans already settled. I find that the further in advance that I book my vacation, it gives me extra time to plan all the little details such as visiting the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. Although the exact dates haven't been announced yet for this festival, chances are you will be visiting while the festival is in full swing, and I hope you will have a chance to check all of the offerings on a day that you visit EPCOT.
Steve, most likely you have purchased what is called a
Magic Ticket which is exclusively available to UK and Ireland residents. Lucky you! If you take a look at the email that you received after you booked your
Walt Disney World vacation package, you should be able to see if a Magic Ticket was mentioned. If this is the case, then this is indeed a date-based ticket, and you will not need to make a separate Disney Park Pass Reservation for your visit in April of 2024. As you have noted, there are still some non-date-based admissions which continue to require Disney Park Pass Reservations for now and those tend to be admissions such as Annual Passes and some tickets offered to the United States military.
I hope this information helps you with your vacation planning. Please remember to visit us here at
planDisney with all of your future vacation planning questions. We are always excited to help you plan your next Magical adventure!
See Ya Real Soon,
Brenda
