question about park tickets - The DIS Discussion Forums

Does anyone know...
can you use a magic your way base ticket (not a park hopper) at 2 parks in one day?
Can I go to Epcot in the morning (using 1 day of the ticket) and then MK at night (to use another day)?

thanks in advance!

No. If you do not have the park hopper feature, you cannot be admitted to a different park on the same day. You can be readmitted to the same park.

No, you can't. You must buy park hoppers to visit two parks in one day.

Sorry.

Bummer!
Park hopping adds so much onto the price of the ticket! And with 3 kids, I don't see us doing much hopping-just 1 day out of the week. Oh, well...

Thanks for your quick responses!

A base ticket is one major (theme) park per day. You are allowed to re-enter the same park if you leave it on one day, but it can only be used at the one park.

Note that the ticket will state on it either "Not Valid For Park Hopping" or "One Theme Park Per Day". That should be a hint.

If you put the ticket in the turnstile of another park the display on the Guest side of the turnstile will be "ACCESS DENIED". The top line of the display on the Greeter side will give information about the ticket, and the second line of the display will say "CROSSOVER NOT PERMITTED". The turnstile will not unlock.

This is because Disney charges $3.00 per day over four days on a ticket, but charges $52 to allow hopping. It does not make economic sense for Disney to allow this.

If you actually have multiple tickets (more than one physical ticket per person) as opposed to multiple day tickets, you can use these tickets for multiple entries. But it makes absolutely no economic sense as a separate ticket costs a lot more than adding hopping to a ticket.
