Hiya, Manki! Welcome to planDisney. We're happy you're here!
There are so many reasons why I love to stay at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel on my vacations to
Walt Disney World Resort! From the immersive touches to the many resort benefits, every minute is magic. And speaking of
resort benefits, I'm so happy to hear that you're interested in experiencing Early Theme Park Entry, which just happens to be my favorite benefit of all!
Manki, you're exactly right –
Early Theme Park Entry is a benefit for Guests staying at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel! That means that you'll have 30 magical minutes to enter the parks before the official opening time and enjoy everything there is to offer. I think you'll be delighted by what you can do during this time! When I experienced Early Theme Park Entry during my trip earlier this year, I was able to enjoy many of my favorite attractions before the park officially opened. My first tip would be to know which attractions you'd like to prioritize during this time! Personally, I'd suggest
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train,
Space Mountain, and
Peter Pan's Flight. Also, be sure that you keep an eye on the
Hours & Events Calendar leading up to your trip! As park times can occasionally shift and change, this will make sure you're staying up-to-date for your specific park days.
You can also keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog, which is my favorite resource for everything I can expect on my upcoming visit! You can also tune into the
planDisney Podcast, where panelists (who are Guests, just like you!) share their best advice and favorite tips for all Disney vacations. If you have any other questions, or if I've misunderstood your question, please write back – we're always happy to help!
See ya real soon,
Michelle
