How do I buy my tickets?

Pick how many days you want to spend in the theme parks, and we can help you find the best deals. Disney’s Park Hopper ticket option lets you move from one park to another on the same day, so add that if you'd like to explore one park in the morning and a different one in the afternoon or evening.

How do I make a park reservation?

Guests with date-specific tickets do not need to make park reservations. If you're using an Annual Pass or some other non-date-specific admission, you’ll need a My Disney Experience (Disney World's official website and app) account and valid theme park admission linked to that account in order to make your park reservations for any dates that are not "good-to-go" days.

I think Disney may have won me over - the experience was wonderful. The hotel was quiet, the pool was uncrowded, and the Mickey beignets were as good as promised.
