2024 is shaping up to be a big year for Disney World!
The Disney Dining Plan is coming back, park hopping is returning to normal, and tons of new rides, restaurants, and more are on the way. We don’t blame you if you’re thinking about planning a trip, and if you’re not, you might want to start because an exclusive perk is returning next year too!

Brandon says
How about bring back Extra Magic Hours for ALL resort guests. And not just for Rich people.
And 30 mins early on the occasional morning does not count.
Katie says
How are you viewing hours for January? The website only shows hours through December 25
Helen says
Is there any point staying at a value or moderate? No perks for staying there.
Melissa says
Oh Dang. I was hoping it was going to be package delivery from the parks back to your hotel. I can only hope
Nancy says
Why are you only extending hours for certain resorts. This unfair.when I pay to stay in the value resorts. Why is it only for the rich folks. You should look back who made Disney rich.
Thumper says
Bring back evening magic hours for all guests! And…bring back 1 hour extra hours in the morning! Half hour barely gives a guest time to walk into the park! Nothing gained at all!
Karen says
This is such a terrible thing! Making those that can not afford to stay at the high end resorts feel inferior. My last trip to Disney I witnessed this first hand. I was on a Disney bus that picked up passengers at a moderate resort and then picked up passengers at the deluxe resort. The bus driver announced that there were extended magic hours for the deluxe resort that night. Half the bus clapped and cheered while the other half sat quietly . A little girl sitting near me asked her mom if they were staying for the extra hours…her Mom replied no we are not staying at a Deluxe resort.
SHAME ON YOU DISNEY! DISGRACEFUL!
Judy says
Feel same way. It’s not fair for only the rich getting the late hours perk. Everyone spends tons of money to go to WDW ! I have been there every year for the past several. WDW is raising prices but not giving anything to the people! The food in resorts need a makeover! Been the same for years! And transportation from airport, another mistake! Reinstate that too!
Carolyn says
Are there extended Hours for Hollywood Studios?
