If you are hoping to take advantage of Early Theme Park Entry, we suggest you go in with a game plan and review which attractions are available when the park opens early. You don’t want to plan on heading straight to Big Thunder Mountain in Magic Kingdom during Early Entry, as that attraction is not going to be open until the park opens for all guests. Know which attractions you want to hit first and double-check that they will be available during Early Theme Park Entry!

Early Theme Park Entry can be a great way to get some of the most popular rides done before wait times get higher. While it does require getting up bright and early to be at the park on time, it is a great perk for hotel guests. Make sure you plan ahead for transportation and travel time and look for signs when you get to the park to direct you to the designated entrance for hotel guests.
