Hey there, Pat!
Welcome to planDisney. We're so glad you stopped by with a question for us today. I'm happy to assist!
You are correct that your
Park Hopper Plus Option tickets include admission to one of Walt Disney World Resort's Water Parks in addition to one or more of the incredible theme parks each day. A 6-Day Park Hopper Plus ticket would entitle you to 6 water park admissions during your ticket's validity period. You can confirm the usage period for your specific tickets in your
My Disney Experience Account.
Let's use an August 1st start date as an example. In that case, your tickets would be valid for use between August 1, 2024, and August 9, 2024. You might decide to start your day at EPCOT and take an afternoon break soaking up the sun at a water park, then begin the following day at a water park before heading to Magic Kingdom Park for the evening. You can hop back and forth between the theme parks and water parks on the same day subject to availability, during your stay.
You might instead decide to visit a theme park 6 days in a row, and then use your water park access on the remaining days before your ticket expires. I was a little confused about this myself so I reached out to a Cast Member to confirm I was giving you the correct information. Chat Cast Member Bernie assured me that if you visited a theme park every day between August 1 and August 6, you would still be able to visit a water park on August 7, 8, and 9 until your tickets expired. You would not be given 6 full days of water park access after using all your theme park admission. All admission entitlements end according to the ticket expiration window.
There are two water park destinations at Walt Disney World Resort, which are currently operating on a rotating basis.
Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park is closed at this time but
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park is available for guest enjoyment. My pal and
fellow panelist Jason shared the schedule for the past 2 years in another recent answer. Based on his research, I'd expect Typhoon Lagoon to be available during your September visit, but keep in mind that dates are subject to change.
I hope this clears up any confusion Pat. If you need further clarification please come back and let us know or feel free to
reach out to a Cast Member by phone for assistance. I'm wishing you a wonderful visit later this year!
Magic and memories,
Amy
