Current Disney Park Pass Reservation Availability the Week of May 9th
Now let’s review the current Park Pass Reservation availability. Even if you already have your Park Pass Reservations booked and ready to go, it’s important to make sure you’re aware of the current availability — it can help you anticipate crowds and potential hiccups when trying to Park Hop (if you have the Park Hopper option on your ticket!).
Select Resort Hotels
On Sunday, May 9th and Saturday, May 15th, guests staying at Select Resort Hotels cannot book a Park Pass Reservation as all four parks are currently full.
