Disney has just made some more additions to the calendar. What will this mean for Disney World’s Park Reservations?
Should Disney Keep Park Reservations?
Disney began the Park Reservation after the parks shut down due to the pandemic to help manage attendance. Now, Park Reservations are only required for Annual Passholders and other non-date-based tickets.
Disney is still requiring reservations for Passholders(unless it’s a “Good to Go” day).
September tends to bring lower crowds and the peak of hurricane season. This could also be why Disney has added even more September “Good to Go” days to the Annual Passholder Admission Calendar.
“Good to Go” Days
Disney still requires Annual Passholders and other non-date-based tickets to have a park reservation, unless it’s a “Good to Go” day. Once Disney adds a “Good to Go” day to the calendar, it will remain a “Good to Go” day.
Park reservations are not required if visiting a park after 2 pm on a weekday.
Even with the Park Reservation System in place, many Passholders report that reservations aren’t hard to get. Some even say that they don’t make their park reservations until they are en route to the park. We haven’t seen many days “sell out” with the reservation system, except when the Disney Starlight Parade debuted or new attractions had special previews.
More “Good to Go” Days Added
Disney has just added THREE more days to the September Annual Passholder Admission Calendar. This brings the total to TEN DAYS of Passholders not needing a Park Reservation for September.
September 16th, 17th, and 18th, have been added as “Good to Go” days.
This also means that Passholders have not needed a park reservation for HALF of the days of the first three weeks of September. This makes many Passholders question if the Park Reservation System is even necessary anymore. Time will tell what Disney will do with “Good to Go” days when fall and holiday crowds arrive.
