As a result of COVID-19, when Walt Disney World Resort in Florida reopens its Parks, Resorts, restaurants, attractions, and experiences – you can expect some changes to the ways in which they’re operated. These changes could include the following: they could be modified or unavailable, limited in capacity, and subject to limited availability or closure. All of these changes are based on advice from health experts and government officials to make sure guests are able to enjoy the Parks safely. To manage attendance in their Parks, Walt Disney World Resort has introduced the Disney Park Pass system, a new Theme Park reservation system that you can access on mydisneyexperience.co.uk. All guests must reserve their Theme Park entry in advance for all dates up to and including September 26 2021 using this system. To book your reservations, you’ll need to visit My Disney Experience www.mydisneyexperience.co.uk and log in or create a profile. Use your TUI booking reference number and lead passenger name to link the ticket to your profile, and check for the date and Theme Park you wish to visit. To enter a Disney Park, you’ll need both a reservation and valid admission for the same Park on the same date. Please note that reservations are limited in capacity, subject to availability and are not guaranteed until they’re confirmed. You can view the latest park availability at any time using the Disney Park Pass system https://www.disneyworld.co.uk/availability-calendar/?locale=en-us&segments=tickets,resort. Park reservation availability is expected to vary from time to time. We recommend using this tool to check availability before you purchase your tickets.
