Taylor Jacey

As we prepare for Walt Disney’s Worlds re-opening, there is plenty of new information that you need to know! Here’s what you need to know for a visit Walt Disney World for the rest of 2020 and for reservations in 2021.

2020 Walt Disney World’s Theme Park Reservation System Opening dates:

  • June 22nd  for Disney Resort guests, Disney Springs Area Resort Guests, Swan and Dolphin Resort Guests and Four Seasons Orlando Resort Guests
  • June 26th for Annual Passholders
  • June 28th for Ticket Holders

All Theme Park Reservation Systems will open at 7am ET on their respective days and only be available via web browser (My Disney Experience App does not currently support). For now – there will be no Park Hopper Tickets, Extra Magic Hours and FastPass+ Reservations

What do I do if I have a room only reservation for 2020 but no tickets or would like to travel in 2020 but haven’t been able to make reservations?

  • Reservations and tickets may be offered for purchase later this summer pending availability

2021 Reservations are almost here!!

  • By June 28thth at 7am ET, reservations will open up for Walt Disney World through September 26, 2021.
    • This means you will be able to modify a current reservation to 2021 or book a new 2021 reservation
  • As soon as you make your 2021 Reservations and link them to your My Disney Experience App, you will be able to make Theme Park Reservations for your travel dates.

Changes at Walt Disney World for 2021:

  • MagicBands will no longer be included in every Walt Disney World Resort stay, but will be available for pre-purchase at a discounted rate
  • The My Disney Experience App will be enhanced to perform many of the actions currently done with a MagicBand.
    • Guests will be provided a Key to the World card as a backup to using their My Disney Experience App

**For both 2020 and 2021; A Theme Park Ticket will be required to enter any of the Walt Disney World Theme Parks and entry is not guaranteed until confirmed in the Theme Park Reservation System
