14 day U.K. tickets

[Welsh_Dragon]

Hi, I will be at WDW from 16 to 30 December 2021(14 nights/15 days). I need to buy a ticket for my son, but U.K. WDW site only sells 14 day tickets, so he would either miss our first day (16th) or our last day (30th). I am dithering about entering 16 or 17 December as the start date. The U.K. WDW site says ‘tickets valid from...’, but does that mean that if I choose 16 December, the ticket will automatically start on 16th, even if he doesn’t enter a park, or will it not activate until he actually enters a park, on say 17 December?

Hi. It will be from the first day he enters the park. We have had same question before and it’s the first start date the ticket could be used not must be used if that is any clearer?

Thank you so much.

The 14 day tickets actually expire 14 days after first use, so they last for 15 days but can only be used for 14 out of those 15 days so he could choose to activate it on the 16th and have a none park day in the middle.
