Last minute Day trip....no parks available!!!!!

[NHBelle]

Sorry if this has been discussed, but I was hoping for a day at EPCOT next week and it looks like there is zero availability at any of the parks. I am so bummed out...is there any chance that a day will open up?

Next week is probably going to be as busy or worse than the President's day/ Mardi Gras/ Valentine's day trifecta week in February :-\ It might be possible a park reservation becomes available with short notice, but with parks at max (limited) capacity, it might not be much fun for just 1 day. Check on the reservation calendar daily and pounce if something opens up, I guess. Good luck!

I agree with checking park availability often.

Another option might be to add park hoppers to your tickets. To date (and it can change) there has never been a time when a guest cannot hop to any of the parks. It could happen but so far has not.

Hopping would, however, require the OP to have a park reservation and enter that park first. This is only a solution to get to EPCOT if the OP can first find a reservation to another park.

It's not uncommon for some availability to open up the day/night before or day of so I'd keep checking. But I would expect it to be a very busy week.

EDIT: Thursday/Friday of next week are showing AP availability for EPCOT as well so there is hope

Agree - and if OP already has a ticket, I suggest to keep trying to make the reservation. I’ve been able to snag last minute DHS reservations even when the calendar showed it was completely unavailable. It doesn’t keep up with every single person changing their plans in real time.

Maybe try calling, people have mentioned that there is a lag on the online calendar. You may have some luck that way.

Unless there's someone who changes their mind and does not go, my local news has had some articles about how the theme parks are all at capacity for next week....Spring Break, it doesn't look like it's going to be easy to get a reservation.

A cancellation is probably the only way to get a theme park reservation at this point, but they do happen. However, for OP and others looking for a one-day visit, unless you already have tickets WDW is not selling tickets for this weekend or next week. So reservation availability is a moot point if you can't buy a ticket.
