Cast Member Park Hopping

[katiec786]

Hi team
My fiancé is a cast member from the UK and has a Main Entrance pass but hasn’t been to the parks since 2017 so we’re figuring out some final details before our trip in two weeks!
I know the pass allows us to park hop (as long as we’ve made a reservation for our first park) but are we able to park hop at any time? Do we have to wait till 2pm?

Thanks so much!

Most of us here don’t have CM ticket knowledge but I can say hopping restrictions re: 2:00 have been removed from all other ticket types. A guest is eligible to hop as soon as they have tapped into their first park.

Park to park Disney transportation begins at 10:00AM

Thank you so much - we were at a bit of a loss where to ask without calling the specific CM line cos last time we did that it cost us £200 in phone charges! Given our plans its not super likely that we'll want to park hop before lunch but you never know, so i'm trying to be prepared for everything lol.
13 days to go!

I have a Main Entrance Pass and the website says that you can park hop anytime.

FYI, some days don’t require a reservation so keep an eye out for that. The CM “good to go” days may be posted weeks or days ahead of time.

My family park hopped to MK from Epcot before noon with cm tickets recently.

Thought I might follow up and see if you know as you have a Main Entrance Pass - do you know if its possible to connect a main entrance guest pass to a hotel reservation if we call the CM Line?? Realised that while my partner is set up to book his LLs 7 days out, my Guest pass only allows me to do it 3 days in advance of each individual park reservation cos MDE doesn't have it connected to the hotel res. Absolutely gutted as today is our 7 day window but we can't book until we figure this out.

I think you're all good to hop unless CM's are blocked out for that park. When I was there near the 4th of July and Tiana's had opened in the MK, my son who is a CM couldn't go to the MK at all. I have an AP so I could go (but needed a reservation).

I have no advice for connecting your guest ticket to the hotel reservation - I hope you're found a solution!

Sadly no joy with connecting guest passes, because guest passes can't be attached to a specific person! So my beautiful spreadsheet with the LL plan has gone out the window lol and we'll need to book 3 days ahead of each individual day we want LLs. Not the end of the world, we're there for 2 weeks and going at a quiet time of year, so I'm remaining optimistic! Will book what I can and will def be trying VQs for the first time as back up options.

Just saw this but I see you got an answer. Being local I never had to book a resort so I never needed to do it.

I don’t know if your fiancé qualifies for the CM holiday package but if they did, don’t forget to bring it.
