Walt Disney World is using a new Park Pass system to monitor limited capacities in the theme parks. All guests are required to make a reservation before entering the parks.

The booking system is split into three categories: Theme Park Ticket Guests, Disney Resort Guests, and Annual Passholders. Generally, the reservations for Annual Passholders run out the fastest, especially for holidays. As it turns out, this has not been the case for the week of Thanksgiving.
Last week, reservations for Disney’s Hollywood Studios filled up for Disney Resort Guests and Theme Park Ticket Holders on November 23rd through November 25th. The reservations for these two categories continue to fill up because Hollywood Studios is now booked on Thanksgiving Day (November 26th) and November 27th for Disney Resort Guests…

…and Theme Park Ticket Guests. Occasionally, Disney will release more reservations on busy holidays and weekends. We will continue to monitor the calendar to see if more passes are released for Thanksgiving week.

Typically, Annual Passholder reservations are the first to go. In this case, it seems that Passholders are skipping their hometown theme park for the holiday week. We’ll keep track of reservations to see if this trend continues with holidays like Christmas and New Year’s Eve!
