Park ticket question

[DisRunnerGal]

Let's say you have a 10 day park ticket. Can you technically use two of those tickets in the same day, creating your own park hopper without purchasing a park hopper ticket?

No, if you have base tickets you may only go to one park per day. You may go and then leave and come back later, but need the hopper to visit any other park.

Nope. Disney knows this would be cheaper than buying park hoppers so you can't do it. You can go to one park, leave, then go back to the same park. But to park hop you'll need park hoppers

For future reference: If you figure out a way to do something cheaper, rest assured it's not permitted.

That pretty much covers it.

Think about it this way... if this was possible, why even have the Park Hopper as an option?

Since this thread continues...

It's not so much that "Disney knows it would be cheaper."
It's because they actually designed the pricing of MYW (Magic YOUR Way) tickets to encourage guests to increase their number of days stay at WDW.

They drop the cost of a "day" very dramatically after the initial 4 days.
They want guests to stay at WDW for more days (and not visit other local parks.)

In most typical cases (4-6 day WDW vacation) if guests want to "hop" it's not very expensive (if averaged "per day") to buy the Hopper option.
In fact, if guests already have the Water Parks Fun and More option, adding the full Hopper to the entire
stay only costs $26 per ticket.

Averaging that price out to its full extent, the cost to have the potential to "Park hop" on any and all days of a 10-day theme park trip is just $2.60 per day.
