Question about no expiration tickets

[hart6066]

Hi--we're going to Disney this Christmas, and plan on getting 6 Day Park Hopper with DDP. We are also planning a Disney Cruise next April, and just found out that our return flight will have to be later in the day. Is there a way to add on one more day to our Christmas plan (6 months earlier) and still be able to use it in April? We wouldn't be at a park for long, so if this ends up being a real price difference it's not worth it--just thought I'd check on it.

So basically we'd like to buy 7 day park hopper passes, but not use the last day until 6 months later??? Probably pushing our luck, but I thought it couldn't hurt to ask! Thanks!

Yes, you can buy non-expiration on the tickets (buy a 7 day ticket with NE) but it is more cost effective to just buy a 1 day ticket for the second trip.

Adding NE to a 7 day hopper is $160. A 1 day ticket with hopping is $120 (non-hopping $85).

You would have to pay for no-expiration for the whole pass, and not just the leftover day. The cost of that is $170.40 for 7 days! You're better off just buying one-day tickets for your April trip.
