Disney has today announced that it will be removing theme park reservation requirements for date-based tickets in 2024.

Starting with park visits on Jan. 9, 2024, theme park reservations will no longer be required for date-based tickets. When getting your ticket, you will simply select a start date for Jan. 9, 2024 or later, complete your purchase and then you will be all set.

For reference, date-based tickets are the standard ticket option offered to guests. For other admission types, including non-dated tickets, theme park reservations may be required to help continue managing attendance. You can check which admission types require park reservations by visiting DisneyWorld.com/ThemeParkReservations before you purchase.

    Very appropriate considering that good-to-go days are the best joke in the tourism industry.

    WDW still calls this a perk?

    Thank you! I've only done LLMP 1 other trip for just 2 days and just did them for where we were reserved for. I'm not sure I clicked on different parks to see if it would let me do it. I did see you can pick any 4 when I looked at it recently for this trip; but then it yelled that I was too early etc, so I wasn't sure if I'd get to that point and then it be like "oops sorry can't do it for here"

    Even without good to go days, a reservation for any park allows you to buy LLMP for any of the 4 and select return times at any time, it doesn’t have to be at your reserved park since you can hop any time after scanning into your reserved park.

    Yes the system ignores existing reservations on Good to Go Days. Eg. On a Good to Go Day, you can have a reservation for MK, and enter DAK first, without issue.
