Disneyland Resort Hotel Benefit Updates and 2026 Vacations Now On-Sale

Walt Disney Travel Company vacation packages and Disneyland Resort Hotel room reservations for 2026 visits to the Disneyland Resort are now available for booking! 

As a reminder, these packages are valid for arrivals Jan. 1-Dec. 31, 2026. Please note the first day of your vacation cannot be booked more than 499 days in the future. Bookings may be made beginning Wednesday. 

Additionally, as Disney looked at how guests were utilizing Disneyland Resort hotel benefits, some changes will be made to available offerings.

To provide guests with more flexibility to enjoy a shorter line to attractions, beginning January 5, 2026, all guests who are checked in and staying at one of the Disneyland Resort Hotels with valid admission and park reservation will receive one Lightning Lane entry for an available Lightning Lane Multi Pass-eligible attraction of their choice to use during their resort stay. With this update, Disney will no longer offer the Early Entry program for guests staying at the Hotels of the Disneyland Resort, which was another way of enjoying a shorter line to our attractions. 

With this update, guests will still get the benefit of time to enjoy expedited access to some of our most popular attractions without having to wake up early to make use of this perk. Lightning Lane Single Pass attractions like Radiator Springs Racers and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance are not available with this entitlement.  

We will share more details about this updated hotel benefit for guests with hotel reservations with check-in dates beginning Jan. 5, 2026, at a later time.  

In addition, the Pixar Place Hotel entrance to Disney California Adventure will be unavailable beginning Jan. 5, 2026, as Disney continues to optimize their arrival experiences. Guests of Pixar Place Hotel may use the Disney California Adventure Park entrance located inside Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. 

As a reminder, for guests wanting to experience the magic of The Happiest Place at Earth this year, there are great special offers available for the fall and holiday season.
