Can a US citizen buy passes &/or hotels through Disney's foreign websites?

So at times they offer a 7 day ticket too? Is there a substantial savings with those?

Hopefully someone else chimes in. When I first started looking at them a month or so ago it didn’t seem like a big difference between the 7-14 day. I noticed the 7 day wasn’t available for their Black Friday offer so I’m not sure how it compares

I’ve seen it before but it’s only a few dollars cheaper than the 14 day one.

Wonder why the tickets at the end of December are cheaper than those at the end of January?

I think their contracts for tickets are given pretty far out. So I’m guessing the rates for the 2025 tickets were increased by Disney when the agreements were signed.

I think it's because Disney sets the price for the UK tickets far in advance and year by year. So the tickets in December are the highest at the 2024 price, while the tickets in January are in a cheaper band, but relatively to 2025 pricing which is overall higher.

Not tickets, but we purchased several nights at the All Star Movies via a website catering to UK/Europe. The total price was about half what US-based sites were charging, and it included one daily quick service meal credit per adult.

We tried but were unable to link the reservation to our account, so we had to check in manually. I was preparing myself for a hassle but check-in was easy breezy with no additional cost. However… they would not honor the food credits as they claimed the promotion did not apply to a US address.

You may have been able to go to the Disney site for that country and linked them. You use the same login credentials as the US site. I had to use the MDE UK site to link my tickets last year, it was not a problem at the parks. But I do think hotel packages are a different story.

I received my 2025 tickets today and was able to link them in MDE! However, I am not showing anything under the memory maker section. Shouldn’t it show that I have MM? The tickets say 14 day with memory maker, it just doesn’t show anything under the memory maker section in MDE

No, it doesn't show up but it will still work. It did not show up when I bought and used the tickets, but I did have it. As long as it states the 14 day with memory maker, you will be fine!

Good to know as I expected it to show up!

I was just getting ready to post the exact same thing! I also received my 2025 tickets today and linked them no problem, but don’t see the MM. I actually just sent them an email inquiring about it. It’s good to know others have had the same experience, and it should all be fine.

Let me know if you hear back anything different from them. I debating emailing but thought I’d ask here first

Got a response this morning:

“The adult ticket automatically has the memory maker built into the ticket. Once you take the first photo it will show on your app in Orlando.
You can also scroll down under My Plans and it can show the Memory Maker included there, but not all devices will show this.
I can assure you that you do have the Memory Maker”.

I have no reason to doubt them at this point, and truthfully even if it wasn’t included I saved a ton of money during their Black Friday sale on the tickets. My trip isn’t until Oct ‘25 so can’t test it out till then.

Don't worry! It worked for me fine back in September and it did not show up anywhere I saw on the app, except for in the ticket description. I bought the 14 day tickets for my longer trip this coming September and I will report back! I'm not worried at all.

Wanted to share for anyone considering UK tickets for 2025: Attractiontickets.com has a promo for 2025, up to 20% off the 14 day ticket. I checked GBP and Euro - got a 14 day ticket for about $40 more than a US 3 day hopper for my May 2025 trip!

Would buying the $20 insurance per ticket be wise? What if you would be waiting to pay for the entire total of them six weeks before the trip date? Would it still be wise or not?

Just replying in case anybody else is curious in future. We'd bought the flex-plus insurance in 2022 after a COVID cancellation in 2020 made us cautious. When we had passport problems, our cancellation (like 2 days before the trip) was about a 5 minute phone call, and we were returned the full amount. I believe the standard cancellation fee is 20%, but they're also extremely flexible with re-scheduling rather than cancelling. It was by far the least stressful part of the whole experience.

We live in the UK but my family is in the States. We're all going to WDW this year, us for 14 days, the rest of my family for 7. My mom just wanted one base ticket to each park, but the 14 day UK Magic tickets (with park hopper, water parks, mini golf, Magic Maker, etc.) was $50 less with the holiday discounts.

Does anyone know if 2026 tickets are released through attractions tickets when Disney releases them as well? Like is it all at once?

Planning to purchase for Jan 2026 trip and want to secure them so I can line up a DVC rental.

No they are released at different times. US tickets for 2026 are not available yet, though I think it was February last year so it could be within a month or so. It appears the link in a post above already has 2026 tickets.

Anyone know if purchases through Attraction Tickets would be eligible for the 6-month 0% financing on the Disney Visa? I'm looking at booking an 8 day trip in January 2026 and had planned 5 park days, but this 7-day option is similar pricing.
