Disney World is resurrecting a previously popular — and restricted — ticket offering starting later this summer.
On Tuesday, Disney World announced that it will begin offering a 2-day, 2-park ticket for its late summer and fall seasons. The tickets start at $199, and grant access for a day at Disney World’s Animal Kingdom and a day at EPCOT. The Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios parks are not included in the deal.
In the past, Disney World only offered the 2-day deal to Florida residents, but the new offering will be available to the general public.
The deal will be available from August 3 to October 3.
The tickets come at an opportune time for Disney fans who also enjoy good food and wine; the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival begins on August 27, within the range covered by the offering.
Disney World is also offering a 4-day, 4-park deal, called the “Magic Ticket,” that gives guests access to all four of its parks for $109 per day. That offer runs from May 26 until September 26.
Meanwhile, starting on June 28, visitors to Disney World will no longer be able to take transportation from its retail and dining hub, Disney Spring, to the parks if they aren’t staying at one of the park’s resorts.
The policy change was first noted by signage posted around Disney Springs, according to the Palm Beach Post.
The new rules prohibit anyone without a confirmed resort booking, dining reservation, or tickets for another Disney experience from boarding transportation at a Disney resort and riding it to the park.
Disney World offers free parking at Disney Springs and free transportation to the park from the resorts in the area. Some travelers looking to avoid paying for parking at the parks will park at Disney Springs and take the resort transportation to the parks. That loophole will soon be closed.
The Palm Beach Post reports that the change is intended to help reduce the time Disney resort customers have to wait to board transportation to the parks.
The standard parking fee for visitors is around $35 per day.
To access the resort transportation now, guests will have to scan a MagicBand, Disney MagicMobile pass, or show their reservation details to a worker before they can board.
