The New Disney Park Pass System

Share
You’ll use the Disney Park Pass system 

We finally know a little bit more about when we will be able to make reservations to visit the Walt Disney World theme parks. It’s called the Disney Park Pass system. If you are staying at a Walt Disney World resort hotel and have a valid ticket, your date will be June 22. Annual Passholders who are not staying on property will be able to make reservations on June 26. All other ticket holders will be able to make reservations starting on June 28. Remember, ticket sales are on hold, even if you have a hotel reservation. You can upgrade to a package by calling Disney.

The reservations will be available through September 26, 2021. It looks like this system could be in place for a while. It’s also mentioned that starting on June 28, new 2021 packages will be available for booking.

I’m going to add the information below. You can also read it from the source here. Also included on the page is what you will need to do to make your reservation. You will need to add your tickets to your My Disney Experience Account. Next, you’ll create your Friends & Family List. You will then select the date and the park (no Park Hopping). Finally, you’ll review it and confirm your plans. It’ interesting to note that when you accept, you’re also agreeing to the COVID-19 waver. It sounds simple enough, but in the past there have been technical problems whenever a large number of people try to make reservations for an event. Don’t be surprised if there are technical issues.

Here’s the copy/paste of the information. This is directly from the Walt Disney World website.

Plan Ahead for Your Next Park Visit

Magic Kingdom park and Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park will begin a phased reopening on July 11—with Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios reopening on July 15.
To manage attendance during this reopening period, while also helping Guests plan ahead before their arrival, we are introducing the new Disney Park Pass system. During this time, all Guests with valid admission will be required to make a reservation in advance for each park entry, using this new online tool.

To enter a park, both a park reservation AND valid admission for the same park on the same date are required for each person in your party ages 3 and up (limit one park per day).

Booking Dates for Park Reservations
The Disney Park Pass system will be available soon to select Guests. Booking dates vary based on your plans.
Beginning June 22, 2020, Disney Resort and other select hotel Guests with valid theme park admission can make reservations.
Beginning June 26, 2020, Annual Passholders without a Resort stay can make reservations.
Beginning June 28, 2020, existing ticket holders can make reservations.

Park reservations will be available through September 26, 2021, based on your Resort stay and ticket eligibility or ticket eligibility window.

If you booked a vacation package, your ticket eligibility is tied to your package travel dates. To make a park reservation for a different date, be sure to modify your vacation package dates.

If you have a room-only reservation at a Disney Resort or other select hotel for a stay in 2021, please call the Disney Reservation Center or call your travel professional beginning on June 24 to upgrade to a vacation package with tickets—and then make your theme park reservations.

Want to Book a New Vacation?
By June 28, all Guests will be able to purchase new Disney Resort hotel packages and theme park tickets and make their park reservations for arrivals starting in 2021 as our phased reopening continues. Guests will be able to view park reservation availability online prior to purchasing their tickets.

Later this summer, we will resume sales of 2020 tickets and Disney Resort hotel arrivals, based on availability of park reservations, while we continue to provide Guests with existing tickets and Annual Passholders the opportunity to make park reservations for 2020 dates.
