Useful Disney Park Tips And Secrets
These useful tips will help you make the most of your holiday at a Disney Park. Have fun!
— Study a Disneyland map before you go to familiarise yourself with the layout and to plan your itinerary, this could save a lot of time in the park.
— Use ‘FASTPASS’ whenever possible, this is a free service that electronically saves a place in the queue for you!
— Buy your tickets in advance to save time waiting in the ticket line.
— Arrive early – Ticket booths open half an hour before the gates so you can be the first to hit the rides. Disney hotels sometimes sell packages where you can enter the Park an hour before it officially opens!
— Take advantage of the Evening and afternoon opening hours – most families with toddlers sometimes have a break in the afternoon or go back to their hotel in the evening, this is the perfect time to take advantage of the emptier amusement park.
— Go on the rides during the Parade – This is a fantastic time to ride as the majority of people will be watching the show.
— Stay at A Disney hotel in the area – Although usually more expensive than a regular hotel, If you book one with free parking and breakfast the cost can be quite reasonable compared to the amount of gas/petrol and parking fees you would have to pay for if you travelled by car.
— Watch the Fireworks from Fantasyland – The majority of fantasy Land closes during the display, if you situate yourself by the Dumbo Carousel and watch the fireworks, you can be the first into fantasy Land queue when the firework display finishes.
— Use your Lanyard – A Lanyard is a device that you wear around the neck to keep your tickets safe and dry.
— Use the lockers at the main entrance – Instead of returning to the car to pick up coats etc why not hire a locker by the main entrance? it’ll be a lot closer and only costs about $7 a day.
— Organise a meeting place should the kids get lost.
— Bring your own bottled drinks – Vending machine drinks are nearly $3 each!!
– Lines 13, 20 and 21 move faster at the entrance.
– The most suitable for toddlers are; – Dumbo the flying Elephant – Casey Jnr Flying circus – The Monorail – The Railroad.
– The quietest times to visit Disneyland is early September when the children have started to return to school and May (which is slightly busier but the temperature is more comfortable).
– Babies – The baby care centre is positioned next to the First Aid on Main street, you can also buy nappies/diapers there.
– Do you like to shop but don’t want to carry everything around with you? You drop your purchases off at the main entrance by the news-stand, the Pioneer Mercantile in Frontierland or the Premier Shop in Tomorrowland. If you are staying at any of the Disney hotels just show your room key and they will send your items to your hotel.
– If you are going to hire a stroller/pram for more than one day then ask for a discount.
– Join the Queue on the right hand side for the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, they may look the same but the left one is longer.
– Singles Line – The big rides have a separate line for people on their own, these queues are usually a lot faster compared to the regular queue.
– Parking tip – pay $6 for the valet parking, your car will be parked immediately without the hassle of having to look for a free spot.
– Pets can stay in air-conditioned kennels by the mail entrance.
