Hi Marian! I’m so happy you stopped by
planDisney with such a great question. It sounds like you have a truly magical stay ahead at
Disney’s Art of Animation Resort!
I’m happy to share that Guests no longer need to make separate Theme Park reservations for entry when they purchase date-based tickets, so your
5-day Park Hopper ticket already includes everything you need. Just make sure you have your tickets linked to your My Disney Experience account, and you’ll be ready to scan in and start your adventure the moment you arrive.
Now, let’s talk about one of the best perks of staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel: Early Theme Park Entry! As a Guest at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, you’ll be able to enter any of the four theme parks 30 minutes before official park opening each day. It may not sound like much, but trust me, those extra 30 minutes can make all the difference! You’ll find lighter crowds, shorter waits, and the chance to experience a few of your favorite attractions before the park fills up. Whether it’s racing through Space Mountain, gliding over Pandora on Avatar Flight of Passage, or strolling right onto Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, Early Theme Park Entry is the ultimate head start to a magical day.
Just remember to check the daily park hours in the My Disney Experience app so you know when that early entry window begins for each park. With your Park Hopper ticket, you can enjoy even more flexibility once you’ve had your morning fun and decide to head somewhere new later in the day. Please don't hesitate to reach back out to us with any other questions you might have. We're always available and more than happy to help here at planDisney!
Warm hugs,
Ana Paula
