After an amazing week in Okinawa, we had a layover in Tokyo before our flight back to Canada. There was plenty we wanted to see in the city, but ever since our daughter’s first trip to Disney World, she was set on visiting Tokyo Disneyland. So, I carefully planned this 1-day Tokyo Disneyland itinerary to fit it in during our layover at Haneda!
If you have a layover at Haneda Airport and are wondering if you can fit in a trip to Tokyo Disney, I hope sharing our experience and one-day itinerary will show you what is possible to accomplish, even if you only have half a day! I’ll cover everything from how to get to Tokyo Disneyland from Haneda, to booking Disney Premier Access and Priority Pass, to where to eat with kids. Let’s get to it!

Overview
Is one day at Tokyo Disneyland enough?
I would personally say two days at Tokyo Disneyland would be perfect. However, I was surprised how much we were able to see and accomplish in just one day at Tokyo Disneyland (well, it was actually only half a day for us!)
We left the park at the end of the night feeling satisfied with our Tokyo Disneyland layover. Our daughter was pleased with all the rides she was able to go on and was able to tick everything off of her bucketlist.
If one day, or even half a day, is all you have time for during your Tokyo layover, I say it’s still well worth it!
How to get to Tokyo Disneyland from Haneda Airport
It’s super easy to get to Tokyo Disneyland from Haneda Airport. There’s a direct Limousine Bus that takes only 30 minutes, making it perfect for a 1-day Tokyo Disneyland itinerary on a layover.
Buses run quite frequently, with multiple departures per hour. You can check the exact schedule here.
You can expect spacious, comfortable seats, a quiet ride, free Wi-Fi on-board, and USB charging ports at every seat. If you have luggage, the bus driver will help load it underneath the bus. You are allowed up to two pieces of luggage per person.
The limousine bus tickets cost ¥1,300/adult and ¥650/child (6-12). Children five and under who do not need their own seat are free.
We purchased our tickets upon arrival at Haneda airport by using the ticket machines. However, we recommend purchasing the bus tickets online using Klook as it’s quicker and more convenient. The ticket machines at the airport kept rejecting our credit cards for some reason so it was lucky that we had enough yen on us to use instead.
What to do with your luggage while at Tokyo Disneyland
Japan is great for easy luggage storage and transfer options! You can choose to store/transfer your luggage at Haneda Airport or bring it with you on the bus and store it at Tokyo Disneyland.
Since we had an overnight layover, we used a luggage transfer service at Haneda Airport to have our luggage sent to our hotel. The cost was ¥2,500 per bag and made our trip hassle-free. Not having to worry about our luggage saved us a lot of time and allowed us to make the most of our 1-day Tokyo Disneyland itinerary!
We took our small carry-on bags with us on the bus and left them in the storage lockers once we arrived at Tokyo Disneyland. As soon as we got off the bus, the storage lockers were right there in front of us.
There were tons of available lockers of all sizes, some big enough to fit large check-in suitcases. We chose a small locker which cost ¥800.
Note that the lockers only take ¥100 coins. If you don’t have change, don’t worry as there is a change machine!
Tokyo Disneyland 1-Day Tickets
One thing that convinced us to fit in a Tokyo Disneyland visit on our layover was seeing how much cheaper the tickets are compared to Disney parks in the US!
For a one-day passport (ticket), the price starts at ¥7,900/adult (age 18+) for off-peak periods and goes up to ¥10,900/adult during peak periods. This works out to only USD$50 to $69! Compare this with Disneyland in California where tickets start at USD$104 and go all the way up to $206!
Tokyo Disneyland is so much more affordable and we didn’t feel the need to rope drop it to make the most of our money.
Another plus is that Tokyo Disneyland offers Junior tickets for kids ages 12-17 for ¥6,600-9,000 and Child tickets for kids ages 4 to 11 for ¥4,700-5,600. Children 3 and under are free!
Note that tickets are not sold at the park and must be purchased online in advance. We purchased our tickets on Klook and found it to be the most convenient way, and it was the same price as booking directly on the Tokyo Disney Resort website. Our Klook ticket even came with a free 3GB Japanese Sim Card!
You can view prices and book your tickets here on Klook.
Early Evening Passport
Depending on the time of your layover, you may be able to take advantage of an Early Evening Passport. This is a discounted ticket for those entering the park at 3:00pm or later on weekends and holidays.
Prices are as follows:
- ¥6,500-8,700 per adult (18+)
- ¥5,300-7,200 per junior (12-17)
- ¥3,800-4,400 per child (4-11)
- Free for kids 3 and under
Please note these tickets are only available for purchase on the Tokyo Disney Resort website or Tokyo Disney Resort app. Tickets go on sale two months in advance at 2pm local time.
Weeknight Passport
If your layover falls on a weekday, you may be able to take advantage of Tokyo Disney’s Weeknight Passport. This discounted ticket is available to those entering the park at 5:00pm or later on weekdays (excluding holidays).
Prices range from ¥4,500-6,200 (no discount for junior or child tickets) and tickets must be purchased on the Tokyo Disney Resort website or Tokyo Disney Resort app.
Should I use a stroller at Tokyo Disneyland?
If you have kids under five years old, I would say yes! Especially if you are tight on time on a layover, a stroller allows you to get around the park that much quicker.
It also gives you somewhere to store your stuff (or numerous souvenirs!) while you go on rides. What we loved about Tokyo Disneyland was that everyone just parks their stroller WITH all their stuff in it and they don’t worry about it getting stolen.
When we we went to Magic Kingdom when our daughter was 4-years-old, using a stroller was a game-changer! However, for this trip, we chose to forego the stroller since she is 5-years-old now and can withstand a bit more walking. We also didn’t want to lug a stroller all the way to Japan just to use at Tokyo Disneyland.
By the way, if you think you can just buy a cheap umbrella stroller in Tokyo to use at Disneyland, like how many people buy them at Target in Orlando just to use at Disney World, think again. Strollers are definitely not as cheap in Tokyo as in the US. I shopped around and decided it was not worth it.
If you want to use a stroller at Tokyo Disneyland, bring your own from home or rent one.
Stroller Rental at Tokyo Disneyland
Stroller rentals are available at Tokyo Disneyland for a low cost of ¥1,000 per day (about $6.50 USD).
Note that these strollers are a “Japanese B-type stroller” and not as big as the ones you can find at Disney Resorts in the US. The seats can only accommodate young kids up to 100cm (3’3″) tall and 15kg (33 pounds) in weight.
If your child is over the age of 3, they may be too big for these strollers. There was no way our 5-year-old would fit in one, whereas she fit in the Disney World stroller with plenty of room to spare.
You can see a photo of the Tokyo Disneyland stroller on their website here.
How to find the stroller rentals at Tokyo Disneyland: When arriving at Tokyo Disneyland, you’ll find it on the right side of the World Bazaar. Look for the sign for “Stroller and Wheelchair Rentals”.
How to do Tokyo Disneyland on a layover
Here are all our tips to make the most of your 1-day Tokyo Disneyland itinerary!
- Download and set up the Tokyo Disney Resort app [Apple Store or Google Play] prior to your trip (know how to navigate the app and be comfortable using it so you don’t waste precious time while at the park)
- Get a Priority Pass as soon as you arrive at Tokyo Disneyland (they can run out quickly)
- Purchase Premier Access for any of your can’t miss rides (worth it to save on wait times and not miss out on your must-do rides)
- Bring snacks and water (keep yourself energized and hydrated and save yourself from waiting in food stall lines)
- Skip the sit-down restaurants and opt for quick service instead
- Order food using Disney Mobile Order (save time waiting in line)
- Wear lightweight comfortable shoes (to ensure you can be on your feet all day long)
- Consider skipping the shows/parades
- Avoid the parade routes (so you don’t get stuck in the massive crowds)
- Watch POV YouTube videos ahead of time (to figure out which rides you want to prioritize)
- Utilize the storage lockers or luggage transfer services at the airport!
How does Priority Pass work at Tokyo Disneyland?
For Tokyo Disney Resort’s 40th anniversary last year, they introduced the free service called the 40th Anniversary Priority Pass. It works much like lightning lanes at Disney World, except it’s free. The pass allows you to enter eligible rides at a specific time, saving you from having to wait in the long standby lines.
You are only able to obtain a priority pass on the Tokyo Disney Resort app once you are physically at the park. Once you have one, you must wait 120 minutes before obtaining another one, or until after the start time of your first pass, whichever is earlier.
Due to the passes being free, and obviously extremely popular, they get scooped up quickly and will likely be all gone by noon. We arrived at the park around 3:00pm and there were no priority passes left for any of the eligible rides.
40th Anniversary Priority Pass Rides:
- Big Thunder Mountain
- Haunted Mansion
- Monsters, Inc. Ride & Go Seek!
- Pooh’s Hunny Hunt
- Star Wars: The Adventures Continue
Is Premier Access worth it?
For a 1-day Tokyo Disneyland itinerary, I would say it’s definitely worth it to pay for Premier Access if any of the eligible rides are on your must-do list. Premier Access can sell out, so it’s best to purchase on the app as soon as you arrive if you want to take advantage of it.
There were two rides we were considering purchase Premier Access for, but when we arrived at the park in the afternoon, it was already sold out for Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast. Splash Mountain was the other ride on my “can’t miss” list so I purchased Premier Access for it.
It was so nice being able to quickly walk through the Premier Access entrance, bypassing the long standby queue. Especially having our 5-year-old daughter with us, the less we had to stand in long lines, the better.
Premier Access Rides and Parades/Shows:
- Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast (¥2,000)
- The Happy Ride with Baymax (¥1,500)
- Splash Mountain (¥1,500)
- Disney Harmony in Color (¥2,500)
- Tokyo Disneyland Electric Parade Dreamlights (¥2,500)
- Reach for the Stars (¥2,500)
- Mickey’s Magical Music World (¥2,500)
- Club Mouse Beat (¥2,500)
- It’s A Sweetsful Time! (¥2,500)
Best Rides at Tokyo Disneyland for Kids
When considering which Tokyo Disney Resort park to visit during our layover, we evaluated which park had the most rides our 5-year-old daughter would enjoy. Even though Tokyo Disney Sea is considered one of the best and most unique Disney parks in the world, and we greatly enjoyed it on a previous visit before our daughter was born, we figured Tokyo Disneyland had the most kid-friendly rides of the two.
Tokyo Disneyland has 18 rides without height restrictions, so there are a lot of options for young kids, including many of the classics! You’ll find the majority of rides and attractions catering to young kids in Toontown and Fantasyland.
The following are the best rides at Tokyo Disneyland for young kids, grouped by land. However, I personally recommend you prioritize the ones I’ve highlighted for a 1-Day Tokyo Disneyland itinerary:
- Adventureland
- Jungle Cruise: Wildlife Expeditions (wait times were fairly reasonable)
- Western River Railroad
- Critter Country
- Splash Mountain (experience a classic that you can no longer find in the US, and it’s eligible for Premier Acccess)
- Fantasyland
- Alice’s Tea Party
- Castle Carrousel (short wait times)
- Cinderella’s Fairy Tale Hall
- Dumbo the Flying Elephant
- Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast (one of the newest and most popular rides)
- “it’s a small world”
- Peter Pan’s Flight (much shorter wait times than in the US)
- Pinocchio’s Daring Journey
- Pooh’s Hunny Hunt
- Snow White’s Adventures
- Tomorrowland
- Monster’s Inc. Ride & Go Seek
- The Happy Ride with Baymax (81cm height requirement)
- Toontown
- Chip ‘n Dale’s Treehouse
- Donald’s Boat
- Gadget’s Go Coaster (90cm height requirement)
- Goofy’s Paint ‘n’ Play House
- Minnie’s House
- Minnie’s Style Studio
- Roger Rabbit’s Car Toon Spin
- Toon Park
- Westernland
- Mark Twain Riverboat
- Tom Sawyer Island Rafts
- World Bazaar
- Omnibus
Detailed 1-Day Tokyo Disneyland Itinerary for a Layover
This is the exact 1-Day Tokyo Disneyland itinerary we followed. We’re providing our exact timeline so that you can get an idea of our approximate wait times and schedule, but obviously your exact times will differ depending on the day you visit.
We visited on a Friday in November and purchased 1-Day Passports. As you’ll see, we actually only had half a day at Tokyo Disneyland, so if you have a full day, you can accomplish even more! Or, if you’re visiting on a weekend, you could follow this exact itinerary and save money by purchasing an Early Evening Passport instead.
12:50pm Arrival at Tokyo Haneda Airport
After landing at Haneda Airport, it took a bit of time to collect our luggage and make our way to the luggage transfer desk.
1:35pm Luggage Transfer Service
We dropped off our luggage to be sent to our hotel. Since we missed the 1pm cutoff time for same-day delivery, they let us know our luggage would arrive the next day. This was no problem for us since we brought along our backpacks with what we needed for the evening.
2:10pm Limousine Bus Tickets
We made our way to the limousine bus ticket machine and purchased tickets for the next available bus arriving in 10 minutes.
2:20pm Limousine Bus to Tokyo Disneyland
We boarded the 2:20pm bus to Tokyo Disneyland and it departed exactly on time. The ride was smooth and relaxing, and we made it to Tokyo Disneyland in exactly 30 minutes.
2:50pm Storage Lockers
After getting off the bus, the storage lockers were right in front of us – perfect! We placed our bags into a small locker and were on our way.
3:00pm Tokyo Disneyland Entry
We walked over to the entrance gates and scanned our Klook mobile tickets to get in. At this time of day, there were no lines at all and we were able to easily walk in. If you come first thing in the morning, however, expect long (yet orderly and efficient) lines.
3:05pm Character Meet and Greets
As soon as we entered through the gates, our daughter was excited to see Minnie and Mickey Mouse right there!
She got to interact with them and take photos, and then right after, we got to meet Donald Duck and Clarice.
Our daughter then spotted Winnie the Pooh, her favourite, and ran over to get an autograph.
Right off the bat, we were off to a good start!
3:10pm Premier Access Purchase
While our daughter was meeting the characters, I was on my phone searching for Priority Passes and Premier Access. I saw that there was nothing left for Priority Pass, but there was Premier Access still available for Splash Mountain.
Since Splash Mountain was on my bucketlist and we can no longer ride it at Disneyland in California, I went ahead and purchased the Premier Access. I got us a slot for 4:20-5:20pm. The total cost for three of us was ¥4,500.
3:25pm Souvenir Shopping
Since most of the rides were showing lengthy wait times, we decided to get in some souvenir shopping while the park wasn’t too busy yet.
We were amazed how awesome all the Disney merchandise is here at Tokyo Disneyland! It is way more affordable than what we found at Disney World, and way cuter, too. For example, we found the Minnie Mouse ears at Disney World to be painfully expensive and refused to buy them there. However, here at Tokyo Disneyland, they were only ¥1,900 (USD $12)!
If we had more time, I probably would have stocked up on some Disney clothes because they were so cute and affordable!
3:40pm Early Dinner at Tomorrowland Terrace
After some quick shopping, we decided it would be best to grab a bite to eat since we didn’t really have time for a ride before our Splash Mountain time slot.
Tomorrowland Terrace had some fun options on the menu so we put in a mobile order. It was not busy at all at this time so we were able to pick up our food within 5 minutes of ordering. There were no lines, and lots of indoor tables available.
Our daughter adored her Mickey Mouse-shaped chicken nuggets (¥400), my fried chicken burger was delicious (¥750), and Ryan enjoyed his Baymax burger combo (¥1,390) with fries and a Fanta Golden Cider.
Since we ordered a combo, it allowed us to purchase the special Mickey Christmas souvenir lunch case (¥1,300) which I really wanted! So cute.
For a treat, we ordered the Mickey churro (¥450).
4:10pm Splash Mountain Premier Access
After our quick food break, we made our way towards Splash Mountain for our 4:20-5:20pm time slot. We arrived at 4:25pm and entered through the Priority Access Entrance.
The standby line was quite long so it was awesome to breeze past everybody. We were on the ride within 10 minutes of arriving.
Our daughter has never experienced Splash Mountain before so we were a bit nervous to start off our day at Tokyo Disneyland with this ride. Turns out our daughter is a thrill-seeker! She threw up her hands in the air and screamed in delight the whole way down the steep drops.
We were amazed how much she loved it! She was not wanting to get wet, so we requested to sit at the back of the log, but we ended up getting splashed way more than we expected. Still, she loved it and wanted to go on it again!
At the end of the ride, you can view your photo from the big drop and purchase a printed copy.
5:00pm The Big Pop
After Splash Mountain, we figured it would be a good time to buy our popcorn buckets so that we could snack while waiting in line for our next rides. We headed back towards Tomorrowland and got in line at The Big Pop.
The line looked quite long but it only took us about 10 minutes to get through it. There were so many cute popcorn buckets that we couldn’t resist buying one for each of us! Each bucket came with whichever special flavor we wanted from The Big Pop – Strawberry Napoleon, Salted Caramel, or Cheddar Cheese.
We ended up buying our three specialty buckets plus the collector Mickey tongs. Altogether it came to ¥9,900. It ended up being a lot of popcorn for the three of us, so we unfortunately didn’t get to try any of the other flavors we wanted to try from other stands (I really wanted to try the Milk Tea flavor!).
5:20pm Gadget’s Go Coaster
With our popcorn buckets around our necks, we headed over to nearby Toontown. After looking around a bit and taking photos, we got in line for Gadget’s Go Coaster at 5:30pm.
The line didn’t look too long and we made it on the ride after waiting only 12 minutes.
However, we didn’t realize we’d have nowhere to put our popcorn buckets so we struggled a bit with them on the ride. Mine and my daughter’s bucket straps got caught on the bar and a bunch of popcorn ended up spilling out in the car – oops! I felt so bad and embarassed.
But the ride was super fun and our daredevil daughter was again screaming in delight!
5:50pm Minnie’s House
As soon as our daughter spotted Minnie’s House after getting off the coaster, she of course had to run over to explore!
We made a wish in the wishing well and then proceeded inside to play around.
Our daughter especially loved the kitchen.
This was a nice, quick attraction to tick off the list.
6:15pm Castle Carrousel
After Minnie’s House, our daughter requested to go on the carrousel. Even though we have a carrousel close to home, it still remains one of her favourite rides!
We got in line at 6:15pm and were on it by 6:25pm.
While lining up, we even got to catch some fireworks from the castle!
6:30pm Snow White’s Adventures
When we got off the carrousel, we noticed that the line for Snow White’s Adventures was extremely short so we jumped right in. In only 10 minutes, we were already on the ride!
Our daughter didn’t really care for it, though. It’s a bit dark and spooky, but at least we didn’t have to wait a long time to ride it.
6:55pm Big Thunder Mountain
Our daughter said she was ready for another thrill ride so we headed over to Big Thunder Mountain. As soon as we got in line, a cast member checked in with us to ask if we’ve been on the ride before and double-checked if our daughter would be ok on the ride. I thought this was nice.
Our daugther assured us she would be fine so we continued to wait in line. We waited 32 minutes, which honestly is not too bad at all! The line felt like it moved fairly fast so it didn’t get boring.
Our daughter was getting sleepy by the time we got on the ride, but it certainly woke her up! She did absolutely amazing and had her arms up the entire time, screaming and laughing in glee. We were so impressed by how brave she was.
7:50pm Electrical Parade
After Big Thunder Mountain, we figured we probably only had enough time for one more ride so our daughter chose Monster’s Inc. Ride & Go Seek. We made our way back towards Tomorrowland but got caught in the Electrical Parade congestion.
The crowd was incredibly dense but luckily we managed to cut through it without too much trouble, all while catching some of the parade. Our daughter had wanted to skip the parade when we asked her earlier, but she was happy to catch a glimpse of some of it.
8:00pm Monster’s Inc. Ride & Go Seek
Our daughter loved Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin at Magic Kingdom, and this one looked quite similar, so she was very excited for it.
We got in line right at 8:00pm and it was pretty slow-moving. It turned out to be our longest line of the day.
As it was getting late, many of the kids were falling asleep and the line consisted of many parents carrying sleeping children. We managed to stay awake by snacking on our popcorn.
Right at 9:00pm, we finally made it on the ride, and our daughter lit up!
She had so much fun shining her flashlight on the targets. Well worth the wait.
9:10pm Closing Time
The park closed at 9:00pm, so when we got off our last ride, everyone was making their way out of the park.
We were quite thirsty though, and had finished all our bottled water. All the shops we passed were already closed so we searched for a vending machine.
Our daughter chose an attractive looking bottle from the vending machine, took one sip and said, “Yuck!” We both tried it and said the same thing. Haha, it tasted like burnt cold tea. Definitely not water. We all had a good laugh.
As we made our way through the World Bazaar, it was very crowded once again, with people getting their last-minute photos with the beautiful Christmas decorations.
9:30pm Tokyo Disneyland Departure
Since we had a long, overnight layover, we had made a reservation at the Hyatt Regency Tokyo Bay hotel. Many of the hotels in the Tokyo Bay area provide complimentary shuttles from Tokyo Disney Resorts, which is very convenient.
After realizing the last shuttle to the Hyatt Regency Tokyo Bay is scheduled for 9:30pm, we ran over to collect our bags from the lockers and attempted to get in line for the shuttle.
Note that if you are planning to head back to Haneda Airport, the last limousine bus departs Tokyo Disneyland at 7:40pm.
We ran up and down the shuttle queues, but could not find the Hyatt Regency Tokyo Bay shuttle. When we finally found someone to ask, it turned out we were in the completely wrong area, 10 minutes away from the Hyatt Regency shuttle stop.
By now, our daughter was falling asleep, so we decided to just get in the taxi queue and pay for a ride to the hotel. Luckily the hotel is nearby, but it still cost us about $20 USD.
Final Thoughts on doing Tokyo Disneyland on a Layover
In total, we spent six hours at Tokyo Disneyland and got in seven rides, met a number of characters, ate a meal, bought some snacks, and got some awesome souvenirs.
We all got to tick off the main items on our bucketlists: I got Splash Mountain, Ryan got Big Thunder Mountain, and our daughter got Monster’s Inc. Ride & Go Seek.
For only half a day, we were very satisfied with what we were able to see and accomplish! And since the ticket price is so reasonable, it didn’t feel like a waste that we didn’t get to take advantage of the full day.
Even if you don’t have an overnight layover like we did, you can still manage to fit in a lot during a long daytime layover. If you can manage to get to the park in the morning and snag some Priority Passes, a 1-day Tokyo Disneyland itinerary would be well worth it for a layover!
I’m certainly glad we fit it into our weekend in Tokyo!
What to pack for one day at Tokyo Disneyland with kids
These are all the things we packed for 1 Day at Tokyo Disneyland that we felt were really useful and recommend:
- Kids Mini Handheld Fan (our daughter loved having this to cool down while we waited in stuffy indoor lines – even though it was winter, it got hot with our winter jackets on!)
- Simple Modern Minnie Mouse Kids Insulated Water Bottle with Straw Lid (this is the exact one our daughter brought and loved)
- Lightweight Kids Disney Backpack (this is the exact one our daughter has and loves, not too big, not too small)
- Apple AirTag (for our daughter to wear)
- Waterproof AirTag Bracelet for Kids (to keep track of our daughter just in case)
- Belt Bag (small and lightweight so I didn’t feel like I was carrying a lot throughout the day)
- Disney World Autograph Book with Pen (our daughter loved getting the characters to sign this and we love that we can add photos to it)
- Minnie Mouse Ears (the perfect accessory for Tokyo Disneyland, but we bought new ones in the park!)
- Nike Roshe Sneakers (the COMFIEST lightweight shoe to last a whole day at Tokyo Disneyland, both Ryan and I wore them and our feet did not hurt AT ALL at the end of the night)
- Slim Portable Charger with USB-C In&Out (keep your phone charged – you’ll be using it a lot with the Disney Resort app!)
- Minnie Mouse Kids Rain Coat (you never know with the weather! Luckily we didn’t end up needing it)
- Disney Adult Poncho (be prepared in case it rains!)
- Bumkins Disney Wet Bag (in case of wet clothes from rides/rain/etc)
- Extra Change of Kids Clothes (in case of soaked clothes/accidents)
Where to Stay Near Tokyo Disneyland
If your flight isn’t departing until the next day and you’d like to spend the night at or near Tokyo Disney Resort, you have tons of hotel options. While staying at the resort is the most convenient, it is very expensive!
We chose to stay off-site but still within the Tokyo Bay area. This allowed us to enjoy a more reasonably priced hotel, while not having to travel too far after a long day at Tokyo Disneyland.
On-site: Tokyo Disneyland Hotel
This is the closest hotel to Tokyo Disneyland, literally just a 1-minute walk from the entrance! If you want the convenience and full-on Disney experience with themed rooms, book a stay here! However, know that it won’t come cheap.
Another perk of staying here is that it allows hotel guests “Happy Entry”, which permits you to enter the park 15 minutes before everyone else.
Off-site: Hyatt Regency Tokyo Bay
To save money, but still stay somewhere conveniently located to Tokyo Disneyland, we chose to stay at the Hyatt Regency Tokyo Bay. We found it to be perfect for our layover. The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle to and from Tokyo Disney Resorts, as well as to and from Shin-Urayasu Station. It’s also easy to get back to Haneda Airport as the Limousine Bus stops directly at the hotel!
Hilton Tokyo Bay
If you want a closer option, there’s also the Hilton Tokyo Bay which is located just one stop away from Tokyo Disneyland. Located across from Bayside Station, the Hilton Tokyo Bay is an excellent choice for those wanting convenience without the high price tag of Disney Resort hotels.
We did not stay here ourselves, but our cousins did and they loved it.
