How do I know how many days are left on an old ticket?

[MinnieMom]

I know I have two tickets left from our trip last year, but I just cannot remember how many days are left on them. You would think I would have written it down somewhere, but if I did I can't remember where I wrote it!!

This is what happens to me when the excitement of Disney hits!

I lose all sense of responsibility and logic . . . I just become a kid again without a care in the world! (and then of course I pay for it when I get home)

Anyway, if there is an easy way to find out how many days are left without actually having to swipe the card at Disney, I'd love to hear about it

Thanks!!

Actually going to guest services is the only way.

As far as I know, you can only find out at WDW or DL.

On our last day at MK 2 years ago, for some reason the front gate could not read our tickets. Ours weren't the only ones that couldn't be read that day... for some reason a whole specific group of tickets could not be read. We were allowed into the park and used Fast Pass throughout the day.

Does anyone know if the process of using FastPass will activate a ticket that hadn't otherwise been activated?

Thanks,

Karen

Like sanibelover said. You can only do it at the Guest Services inside and outside of the parks and at any Disney hotel.

If you inserted your park ticket in the machine to get the Fastpass and it worked, then a day was taken off your ticket for that day's admission. The computer system will not let Fastpass work automatically like that unless you use the valid ticket that the computer says was scanned for your admission that day.

If you got Fastpasses by walking up to the CM at the attraction and showing him your ticket and the CM manually overrode the machine, then you may not have had the day taken off your ticket.

Use of the Fastpass machine itself will do nothing more than allow or disallow you getting a Fastpass. Nothing more.

We've saved all our tickets over the 30 years and last vist, wifey took them down and at the resort check-in the CM ran them all through and 2 tickets had 2 days left. Bonus for us and its the only way to tell in at Disney!!

Unfortunately, the only way to find out how many days you have left is to go to guest services. I would recomend keeping track of the days you use somehow.
