Walt Disney World have finally announced they're scrapping the theme park reservations for date-based tickets starting on January 9th, 2024! If you have booked a hotel and ticket package direct through Disney or a 7 or 14 day Magic Ticket you will not need to make park reservations, as these are date-based tickets.
Starting with park visits on Jan. 9, 2024, theme park reservations will no longer be required for date-based tickets. You heard that right! When getting your ticket, you will simply select a start date for Jan. 9, 2024 or later, complete your purchase and then you will be all set! For reference, date-based tickets are the standard ticket option we offer to guests. For other admission types, including non-dated tickets, theme park reservations may be required to help us continue managing attendance and delivering a great experience for everyone.
