At Tokyo Disney Resort, we have a more limited version of “Extra Magic Hours” than Disneyland or Walt Disney World. Our version, called “Happy 15 Entry”, allows entry 15 minutes ahead of park open (or general admission) to those staying at Disney hotels. When you enter, you can experience two headliner attractions and some shopping options ahead of everyone else. And trust me, it can be a huge leg up. But some policy changes are coming to the “Happy 15 Entry” program next year.

Currently, Guests staying at all four Disney hotels (Tokyo Disneyland Hotel, Hotel MiraCosta, Disney Ambassador Hotel, and the Tokyo Disney Celebration Hotel) are able to take advantage of Happy 15 entry at both theme parks after their first night. Additionally, Guests staying at Hotel MiraCosta and the Disney Ambassador Hotel can enter Tokyo DisneySea on their check-in day. Sounds nice, right? Well, some of that’s changing on June 1st, 2020.

From June 1st, 2020, Guests at Hotel MiraCosta will no longer be allowed to enter Tokyo DisneySea early on check-in day. The benefit will remain in place for Disney Ambassador Hotel Guests, however. Additionally, Guests at the Tokyo Disney Celebration Hotel will no longer be able to use Happy 15 Entry at Tokyo DisneySea at all. Happy 15 Entry will only be available at Tokyo Disneyland.

Keep in mind, Guests are given a mere 15 minutes, which allows you to experience one of two attractions.
