Disney's Hollywood Studios is the first park to hit capacity for Disney Park Pass availability

Disney's Hollywood Studios is now at capacity for the first two days of its reopening.

Disney Park Pass reservations began earlier today, open to Disney Resort guests only, and by 2:15pm Disney's Hollywood Studios reached capacity for both July 15 and July 16 2020.

Currently, all other dates and parks have full availability, although reservations are continuing, and on Friday will be joined by Disney Annual Passholders.

Disney has previously said that it expects people to have difficulty in obtaining reservations on some days, and that has turned out to be correct.

Disney's Hollywood Studios is perhaps viewed as the hot ticket now, with Star Wars Galaxy's Edge and Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway recently opened. The compact nature of the park would also likely give it the smallest distanced capacity of the four Walt Disney World theme parks.

Agree.

Definitely agree about onsite APs. But at this point it needs to just be 100% completely dropped for all remaining ticket types that require reservations. There is absolutely no need and I can't imagine that the number of APs going into the parks with reservations on a daily basis is really helping Disney staff accordingly compared to the number of other ticket types going in and out of the parks without reservations.

Those using military or group tickets also have to make park reservations. I am in 100% agreement that APs staying on sight should not need to make park reservations. It annoys me to no end….

Well if they see a large enough drop in per capita spending in the parks, maybe they will drop the PPRs for APs

At absolute minimum, park reservations for APs staying onsite should be removed. After spending crazy money on multi-day tickets the past several years (25 month span - individual cost breakdown over $3.5k for ticket, hopper, share of memory maker), to finally finding a good opportunity to buy APs again, but now getting smacked with being the only group left needing park reservations, when every trip we stay onsite too. There’s gotta be a better way to make it feel less done dirty 😆 I prefer happily parting with money. They used to have much greater finesse in that department.

The MEP holders are the ultimate undesirables. They're also included in the GTG days.

It's more like we can't fill the parks those days so the unfavorables can come visit

Insert 'requisite rant about reservations and the way it used to be' here.

Incredipass can only hold 5 at a time when staying offsite.

I say this as someone who travels to WDW during Christmas & Easter: Just scrap park reservations except for Thanksgiving Week, Christmas Week, and Easter Week. They are clearly not needed at any other time now since they're always available and they're just an added annoyance with no benefit to anyone, including Disney at this point. Or, if you **must** use park reservations because you want to have an idea of where your AP's who don't buy LL will be (even though they can easily change their mind at the last minute anyway), then still require park reservations, but just don't cap the number than an AP can make.

But if you have an annual pass as long as it doesn’t block out that/those date/s then it shouldn’t matter. An annual pass is in fact valid admission.
