It seems like Disney World is getting a lot busier on weekends. We expected it on holiday weekends like Labor Day for example, but it looks like that’s extended into the rest of the year, too.
Since the theme parks reopened, Annual Passholders (and other guests) have had to snag a Disney Park Pass reservations before entering the park. Reservations, especially for Disney’s Hollywood Studios have been filling up FAST. Thus meaning APs are having to book weeks, and sometimes months in advance if they’re looking to visit Hollywood Studios.
We took a look at the Park Pass reservations for Annual Passholders for December, and the first weekend is already filling up. Hollywood Studios passes for the first Saturday of the month, December 5th, are already GONE.
And it’s likely the rest of the parks will fill up quickly, too.
If you’re looking to visit Disney World that weekend, it’s probably a good idea to book those park passes now. However, if they do fill up, we recommend that you keep checking the site, because Disney occasionally releases more availability for Passholders.
We’ll keep an eye on the situation for the next few months, and let you know what days are filling up, as well as what days end up with more availability. Stay tuned!
