You're missing out on one of the BIGGEST perks of staying at a Walt Disney World Resort if you're not taking advantage of Early Theme Park Entry!
Disney Resort guests can enter the theme parks 30 minutes before regular park opening, and those 30 minutes can make a HUGE difference in your day.
But here's what we wish more families understood...
Early Entry isn't just about getting into the park before everyone else. It's about having a PLAN for those extra minutes!
Depending on the park, attraction availability, and crowds, you could knock out a few popular attractions before the park even officially opens to everyone else.
And when you're traveling with little ones, that can mean less time waiting in lines and more time enjoying everything else the parks have to offer.
Our biggest tip? Don't feel like you HAVE to use Early Entry every single day. Sometimes a slower morning is exactly what your family needs!
Save this post for your next Disney vacation, and tell us: Are you an Early Entry family, or would you rather sleep in?
