Family Trip Feb 2021 - Need Advice!!

[KnightGuy]

Need some advice from you guys...

My family trip is coming up in Feb but we have not yet purchased tickets for parks. We are cramming a lot into 4 days with only one day for Disney. There are 7 in our party (mom, wife & myself, our 4 year old, 4 month old, and newphews age 14 & 15). The parks we've chosen based on ages are Hollywood (attend in the morning for thrill rides plus Galaxy's Edge) and Magic Kingdom (attend late afternoon into evening for the little guy...he will have downtime at the resort in the morning).

My question is about tickets. I noticed the park hopper option is available for our date in 2021. If Disney decides to continue admission the way they have in recent months due to Covid, my concern is that I'll be stuck paying for park hoppers that won't be honored. Has anyone else planning for 2021 had the same dilemma? Which route should I go? All advice is greatly appreciated!

I would advise you to get the base tickets. If they announce they'll be allowing park hopping when you go, you can always upgrade the tickets at the ticket booth and just pay the difference

I would plan to be in just one park a day in February (& then just be pleasantly surprised if this changes). We have a February trip upcoming then too and think it's doubtful we'll be able to park hop, even though the AP tickets we bought months ago would normally allow us too.

They just announced this morning that Park Hopping will return in January.

Previously, Disney had announced that if you bought the Park Hopper option for 2021 and hopping was NOT available during your trip, they would refund that charge. So you wouldn't have lost anything anyway.
