A nice way to start

When you have nothing planned yet, Magic Carpet gives you a few ways to start.

The Home screen with nothing planned: a blue card reading Welcome to Magic Carpet, Where to first?, Tell us your dates. We'll help you dodge the crowds and enjoy the parks your way, with a Plan a visit button and an or plan today link.
Magic Carpet's welcome mat giving you a few ways to start planning your trip.

Plan a Visit

This is where most people will start. You have an upcoming trip planned where you’ll spend one or more days in the Disney World parks. Plan a Visit will kick off the trip planner, where you can enter your dates, get suggested parks, and start planning your days.

Plan Today

Say you’re already in Orlando and are planning to spend today at a Disney World park. The plan today link gets you going right away on a one-day trip happening today.

Best days to visit

Not today, and not planning a future multi-day trip, but trying to decide when to go to EPCOT this week or next? The handy Best days to visit section tells you the soonest day in the next two weeks when we predict lighter crowds than usual at each park. Tapping one brings you directly into planning for a trip to that park that day.

Have plans in Magic Carpet already?

Once you have plans, the Home screen lists what’s coming under UPCOMING PLANS, soonest first. While a trip is under way, YOUR TRIP sits above the list with a tile for each day and today marked. Tap one to open it, or tap ADD A VISIT at the bottom to plan another. The Live Guide still sits up top if you are lucky enough to be in a Disney World park today.
