Southwest Park Ticket Offer

[stinkpickle]

Pardon me if this has been posted already, but it appears that Southwest vacations is offering a "three days free" on park tickets that looks similar to the old Parksavers/Expedia one...

Search under "activities". The 6-day hopper is $368.

Can you buy it without a hotel reservation? Looks like a great price.

Thanks for posting this!

@Psychodisney yes you can - just follow the OP's instructions and search for "Activities" only.

Since we have to input dates, is our tickets locked to those dates?
Or can we purchase tickets, for a future trip?

Despite the date that some resellers request for their own internal bookkeeping purposes, MagicYourWay tickets are not dated.

Once you obtain them, they do not expire, and can be used any time.

I'm not sure. I'm assuming it's similar to the Parksavers version.

Thinking about getting APs again. But if we don't, we'll need 9-day tickets. Can we upgrade the 6-day tickets to 9-day? If so, do we pay the difference between the 9-day and the 6-day price or between the 9-day and the Southwest promo price?

1. Can we upgrade the 6-day tickets to 9-day? If so,

2. do we pay the difference between the 9-day and the 6-day price
3. or between the 9-day and the Southwest promo price?

1. Yes.
2. Yes. It IS a 6-day ticket.
3. Nope.

If they price bridge correctly, I think the upgrade is something like $10.60 per day, per ticket.

Hey Robo...another ticket question for you...I have some nonexpiry tickets still that don't have PH on them. Can I add PH to them?

AFAIK, you can add the Hopper to older (NEVER-USED) Non-Expiring tickets.
You just can't add more "days."

Any advice on th best place to try and do this? I have tried at mk guest service and the IG guest service and been told no both times. Both cm's told me that since the non-expire tickets aren't in their system anymore, these tickets must be used as is. No upgrades. We have 4 non-expire 10 day tickets with the water park option. Just need he hopping option!

Thank you! I just got an $80 refund price matching this

 

[bffdisney]

I bought a 4 day park hopper and linked it to MDE. Planning on using in December. I can't get a refund for that and get these southwest tickets, can I? What options do I have - I know I could just leave my old tickets, but I don't know when we will be back. I am also having trouble seeing if there is tax on the Southwest ones in order to really compare the prices.

My group was originally looking at 6 Day Park Hopper + Water Park passes for our Sept 2017 trip, which are $448 from officialticketcenter with TouringPlans' discount....

Seems like it would make more sense to get 6 Day Park Hoppers from Southwest here for $368, and add Water Park option on arrival for the difference (which is under 30 bucks, by 2016 prices)?

Am I missing something there, or should we jump on this? I guess the biggest concern is: do they send you the ID#s to add the tickets to your MDE, and if so how soon?

I am also having trouble seeing if there is tax on the Southwest ones in order to really compare the prices.

Looking at the Cart, there does not appear to be any additional taxes.

How do you get the ticket #s ahead of time to enter into MDE?

 

[ettinkerbell]

Robo - Do you know if you can have tickets sent to your home instead of "Will Call" in order to get them entered into MDE.

 

[SUSIEQ]

@tinabina919 Who price matched for you? Thanks.

With Parksavers and Undercover Tourist tickets, they can send you a CONFIRMATION NUMBER to put into your MDE
in order to book FP+ in advance.
