Ticket prices 😱

[Jrb1979]

Personally I don't think any discounts will happen anytime soon. Til they start selling AP's again I can't see discounts happening.

I just did this and it cost me about $122 USD per ticket to upgrade the 7 day non-hopper tickets for a visit in May 2022. The value of the ticket with the update is now $574.22 USD.

That's a good price right?

Our 8-day PH tickets are costing us 695.98 USD each for March 2022

definitely waiting to hear how uk tickets go and I hope for some sort of Canadian discount..
to be honest if my kids didn’t want to go so bad I would sell dvc and go to Europe.

I used the UK ticket in November. No residency requirement. Bought from a UK ticket reseller… there’s a post on this forum with the options. No problems.

Wow - see that you can bring the price down by switching to Euro from GBP as well.

We have a trip planned for 9 nights (all offsite) in November and then a 17 (8 night at BCV) night trip in Feb/March '23.

It says on the site to contact Disney about converting to APs (when available again).

Has anyone had any issue converting the 14 day ticket to annual pass? Any idea how much $$ disney would be looking for to convert?

It's not a good price considering that they were Air Miles flexible date tickets that were scheduled to be used in May 2020 when the park was shut down. They were extended to 2030 and I made the switch to May 2022. The tickets were valid when I made that change. Then in August 2021 Disney announced that the tickets would expire in September. So even though I had booked the trip and these tickets were applied to it, they expired and I had to pay the difference... So I'm a bit bothered by that experience...

I understand

As far as I know there is no residency restrictions. I purchased a no questions asked refund policy with the tickets for 10 GBP extra just in case they get rejected at the gate, but every report that I’ve read has said there are no issues with Canadians using the tickets.

I have hard tickets that I’ve linked to my MDE account for my trip in March and there were no problems doing that. I’ll report back with more details after my trip, but I’m not worried at all about the tickets.

I just received these tickets for a trip in March. I had to link them via the uk site. Was that the same for you? Also, had to make my park reservations on the uk site, the Canadian site just kept kicking me out to the login page when I tried. Did you have to do that on the uk site too?

Also curious about buying G+ or ILL$…Will I have issues with that once I’m there? What were your experiences with the app and these tickets?

thank you for any tips and advice!!

Yes you are right! I did have to link the tickets in the UK Disney site (same login as my usual MDE). But once the tickets were there I am pretty sure I could do park reservations in the regular MDE site. I think I had to do it in the Edge browser since Safari and Chrome seem to not work for park reservations (for me at least)... maybe they fixed that now. We bought G+ a few mornings. Have to buy it after midnight, then be ready at 7 am to select the popular ones like SDD. We did not do any ILLs, but since we could buy G+ no problem, I would think it would be the same. Also used the free included water park option once the afternoon of one of our park days. The app worked fine with these tickets, just like our previous Canadian resident tickets.

thank you. I was getting myself all worried that I was causing myself more work doing it this way. I’ll try another browser to see if that works as the app and safari are not.
For the waterpark day, you just made the park reservations for the park you were going to before or after? Thanks again

Yes I made my morning park reservation at AK. Did not need a reservation for the waterpark, just showed up at Blizzard Beach and scanned our magic bands. We appreciated the included photopass too.

Thanks again! You just took a large weight off for me!

I linked my tickets via the iPhone app, and had no issues with that. I did have issues making park reservations (it would log me out), and had to call dvc member services, however, they said many people were having that issue so I don’t think it was related to the UK tickets, but Disney’s IT (surprise, surprise!).

Not sure about G+ or IA$/ILL$ as we aren’t going till March, and not sure if we will purchase them, but I can update once we are there.

chrome worked for me on the usual site so I am all good now. Thanks both of you for your experiences!

I'm just starting to get back into some planning. We had 3 nine day park hopper + in August 2020 (under a Canadian Rate) that we didn't end up using. To "upgrade" to 6 day park hopper + in 2022 will cost us an additional $650US. Did they ever make a killing changing to "named dates".

Anyone think we'll get a Canadian ticket discount this year? We are planning DLR and WDW this year. Holding off on purchasing tickets just in case.

It would be nice but I dont hold great hopes. They want to squeeze out every last dime.

 

[Sue M]

I have one more non expiring Canadian wdw ticket to use. Maybe next year after everything is opened, like Guardians and Tron. After that I don’t know when I’ll be back. Prices are crazy stupid. I’ve been going to Universal more.

I doubt it. The parks are crowded all the time. There is lots of demand.
