We will visit 12/27-30 with 4 day tix plus park hopper. I reserved our Fastpasses months ago. Yesterday I called Disney and they said I can reserve 3 per day per park with a parkhopper on My Disney Experience (so each day get 3 passes at each park). Is this correct?! I couldn’t figure out how to do it on the website. Thanks for your help.

MJ, no, sorry. You can reserve a total of three at one park in advance. Once you’ve used those three, you can then add more, one at a time, in the park you plan to use them.
