Disney World drops park reservation requirements and reintroduces dining plans.

Walt Disney World will no longer require theme park reservations for date-based tickets starting January 9, 2024, and will offer select days for annual passholders and Disney cast members to visit without a reservation. The company is also bringing back fan-favorite dining plans for those staying at Disney Resort hotels who purchase a vacation package starting January 9, 2024. Some admission types may still require reservations to manage attendance. Bookings for 2024 visits will begin on May 31, 2021.
