[Katie Count]

(Mod Edit) NB: THIS POST IS REGARDING WDW"S RESERVATION SYSTEM ONLY

Step 2: Create Your Party

When you begin to make a reservation, you’ll be prompted to create your party from your Family & Friends list.
Simply select the family and friends you’d like to include, then select “Continue”.
Don’t see someone in your travel party? Select “Add a Guest” to include them.
Note: You may need to make more than one Disney Park Pass reservation for your party depending on your admission type. Please make sure your party consists of Annual Passholders or theme park ticket holders.
Staying in a Disney Resort or other select hotel with a package that includes tickets? Everyone in your party must also have a hotel reservation. If this varies, you will need to make separate Disney Park Pass reservations.
Go to Step 3

Step 3: Select a Date and Park

Choose the date and the theme park that you’d like to visit from the available reservations. Please note that dates and theme park selections are limited and subject to availability.
After creating your party in the Disney Park Pass system, you’ll be prompted to:

• Select a Date: View a calendar and choose one of the available dates for your visit.
• Select a Theme Park: Park hours will be displayed for your convenience.
• Select a Time: This is the time that you can visit the park.

After selecting your date, park and time, you can confirm your reservation.
Go to Step 4

Step 4: Review and Confirm Your Plans

Carefully review and confirm your selected park and date.
If you need to make any changes, select “Back” to revise your selections.
Before confirming, you’ll need to agree to the Terms & Conditions, including the COVID-19 liability waiver. Then, select “Confirm” to complete your park reservation.
Once confirmed, your reservation will appear in My Plans.
Want to make another park reservation? Select “Make Another Reservation” to continue planning. As a reminder, if you have a multi-day ticket, you will be required to make a park reservation for each date of your visit.
Your new reservation(s) will appear in My Plans—both online and in the My Disney Experience app.
If you need to cancel a reservation, view your daily itinerary in My Plans, then select “Reservation Details”.
You’re All Set!
Get ready to experience the magic of a Walt Disney World theme park.

Thanks Katie... that answers one of my questions above

This info is for WDW, not DL.

This info is for WDW, not DL.

I was just looking at that link and realized it was for WDW. I hate how the two systems are separate from WDW and DL.

 

[Katie Count]

The question I still have is what time does this go live on 06/22...?????

 

[theluckyrabbit]

I don't know why I am not receiving the AP email. How do I fix this? Thank goodness for the boards!

Have you tried calling the AP Hotline? And make sure that all the information on your online account is up to date, too.

Repeating this reminder:
For everyone posting here: The title says it all. This Superthread is for official news and updates regarding the DLR reopening (DL, DCA, DTD, and hotels). All speculation about the reopening needs to go in the Disneyland Reopening Speculation Thread on the Disneyland Community Board.

Also, when posting about WDW news, PLEASE make that absolutely clear at the top of your post!

Have you asked this on the WDW boards? Does anyone there know?

"Ok got some info
As we know park hopping will not be an option but people are allowed to leave the park and come back to the same park later
Also the system opens at 7am for booking you can use the app or website
No word yet on how many reservations an AP can hold but people with a resort reservation can book for the number of days they have tickets (length of stay) so it will behave just like getting fps"

For WDW PARK RESERVATIONS

If anyone missed this, WDW will be using park reservations for quite some time:

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

I finally called and they have my email for everything else except my AP! I am back in business.

I don't know whether to ask this here or somewhere else (tried the speculation post but it is closed), but please direct me to the right place if it isn't here.

Situation: 5-night VGC reservation (bumped from May) to end of Aug/beginning Sept
Guests are myself, hubby (DVC members) and daughter who turns 18 just before trip. We all have flex passes that originally expired 8/14, but I'm assuming those will be extended.
**Trip is to celebrate her birthday
Other guests are her boyfriend, and possibly a good family friend who will be living in San Diego by then. Neither of those guests have any tickets at this time.
We still aren't 100% sure we are going, it will depend on COVID cases at the time (ill mother nearby at home, so I'm being super careful).

I've encouraged our guests to buy a ticket now, but no one has yet. They want to""wait and see," which I get. But daughter doesn't want to go on the trip if her boyfriend doesn't go, because it's her celebration.

Are there any 3rd party places still selling DLR tickets? (Family friend is military spouse, boyfriend is son of DOD employee, but I don't believe one who is eligible to for military tickets--and military spouse friend isn't sure if she is joining or not, so I can't count on a military tickets for boyfriend through her).

Any suggestions for what I should tell them? I don't know if there will be any chance of me getting them reservations if they don't have their tickets when reservations go live.

Thanks for any input!

I bought the day the announcement came out about parks opening from UT. But I think the deadline to purchase is either today or tomorrow and then they have to stop selling tickets. Or so I was told.

I didn't see it, but was there any information about how many days someone could have active reservations for?

The Disneyland Reopening Speculation Thread on the Disneyland Community Board is not closed. It is definitely open for business and moving briskly this morning!

Thx for the link! I searched and didn't come up with anything.

 

[WonkaKid]

The DL site has been updated. No news yet about reservations, though.
Update

 

[BellaandMickey]

I think that if you don't have existing tickets, on the 28th, you can only purchase for 2021. So people with tickets have the advantage thru December.

I didn’t see that detail. Thank you for pointing that out!

Select a Time: This is the time that you can visit the park.

After selecting your date, park and time, you can confirm your reservation.
Go to Step 4

Select a TIME?? Does that mean arrival time or a window of time you’re allowed to visit??

It’s the arrival time for WDW guests.
