Also, don’t forget about Early Theme Park Entry! This perk allows guests staying in Disney World Resort hotels and select other qualifying hotels to enter any of the four theme parks each day thirty minutes prior to the posted park opening time. This is a great way to get a head start on those popular rides and attractions before the park gets busier.

Annual Passholders

Most Annual Passholders also have wide-open Park Pass Reservation availability for the week of January 30th.

As of this writing, Annual Passholders with an Incredi Pass may book a Park Pass Reservation for next week for any of the four theme parks on dates that their Pass is not blocked out.

The situation looks the same for the Sorcerer Pass, Pirate Pass, and Pixie Dust Pass (but note that any dates that are blocked out for those passes are unavailable).

Keep in mind that Park Pass Reservation availability may not always correlate with park crowds. Despite Park Pass Reservations being in ample supply this month, it has been an unusually busy January! No matter what time of year you visit the parks, prepare for crowds and plan accordingly! We’ll be back next week with another roundup of the latest park hours and Park Pass reservation availability, so make sure to follow along ahead of your next Disney World vacation!
