Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

[Robo]

Thank you! Last clarification question = So if it doesn't link automatically, where would I find the "confirmation" numbers for the tickets?

When you order tickets (or really, anything from Disney) when they respond to your order, there will be a confirmation number (or more than one.)

I currently have a 6-day park hopper for our trip June 4-12. We have an off day scheduled, but may decide while we are there to go to a water park on that day. I believe I can upgrade my hopper to the hopper plus while we are there, is that correct? The cost difference between the hopper and hopper plus is $15, much cheaper than paying the daily rate at the water parks. I am hesitant to buy the plus pass ahead of time, because we may want/need a break day mid-trip and then the plus option would have been a waste of money.

When upgrading to an AP,can I use multiple payment methods. I have some GC money that I would like to apply, so I would be paying with GCs and credit card. TIA!

1. Correct.
2. Correct, if you purchased tickets minted after (or booked your WDW package after) Feb. 12, 2017.

Can someone tell me how much it would be to price-bridge an old stock UT 7 day adult PH ticket to a Disney Platinum Pass? My brain is broke.

$829.64 Platinum AP (Current)
-467.54 Adult 7-day PH (Pre-Feb. 12, 2017)
=362.10 Price to upgrade (including tax)

1. Correct.

Wow! That is a lot of posts!!! I am on this site multiple times a day and you can see my posts...lol. I need to step it up!

Thanks for the information. We booked out package last summer, so I guess it would be more than just $15 per ticket.

It is POSSIBLE that the ticket CM will do the upgrade for $15 +tax.
(It never hurts to ask nicely.)

Otherwise:

$511.20 Adult 6-day Park Hopper Plus (Current)
-451.56 Adult 6-day Park Hopper (Pre-Feb. 12, 2017)
= 59.64 (Maximum charge to upgrade to the Hopper Plus

Dang...$15 would be worth it, but having to pay the difference in price between the old and new prices is practically the same as paying for a day at the water parks. I will just have to ask super nicely if we decide to do this. Thanks for your number crunching!

I came to ask if i would be able to add Water parks to our 2 day Park hopper / free dining package for the $15 after we arrived. I hate to add it before hand. From the previous post I take it that i can easily add water park option once we are down there?
Also if we decide not to do waterparks i may add a day or two to the 2 park hopper tickets. Any clue what that would cost per Adult ticket?

Question A: On what date did you originally book your WDW Resort package?

1a. Yes.
1b. Maybe. That can depend on the answer to Question A, above.
1c. Yes.
2a. What is the reason that you don't want to do so?
2b. Yes.
3. Yes.
4. That can depend on the answer to Question A, above.

Since you booked after Feb. 12,2017...

1a. Yes.
1b. Yes. $15.
1c. Yes.
2a. OK
2b. Yes.
3. Yes.
4. Subtract the current price of the ticket that you HAVE
from the current price of the ticket that you WANT.
Pay that difference price for the upgrade.
So...
-------
$371.69 (3-day Hopper, Adult)
-275.84 (2-day Hopper, Adult)
=95.85 (1-day add-on upgrade)
-------
$452.63 (4-day Hopper, Adult)
-275.84 (2-day Hopper, Adult)
=176.79 (2-day add-on upgrade)

"Short" tickets have, by far, the highest cost per day.
If you were adding days to, say, a 6-day ticket, the extra days would only cost about $20 each.

Not unless the next trip is within 14 days of first use
or
It's a special ticket sold to FL residents

Thank you! It is not, we are going in October and December.

I have a question regarding the following information from post 2:
"If a MYW ticket was purchased on or after Feb. 12, 2017, as long as the ticket has not been used to enter any park gate, it is considered "unused" and remains valid to begin use up until its expiration date. The expiration date will be provided at the time you purchase your ticket.

An "unused" ticket can be used by the original ticker holder, or given away to anyone else, or sold to anyone else.
This is true even if the ticket has been connected to a MyDisneyExperience account, but has yet to be used by anyone.
That ticket can still be transferred via MyDisneyExperience to another guest who connects to the original ticket holder's MyDisneyExperience account."

My specific questions are underlined below. I want to order 3 Park Hoppers next month from UT for my DD's family for use on our upcoming Dec/2017 trip. My concern is that her fiancee may not be able to go if something comes up at work.

1. I will add the Hoppers to my MDE, it doesn't sound like it matters if I assign them or not they would be available to reassign as long as they are unused, correct?
2. If he doesn't go would I be able to use it toward a DVC AP for me in the future?
3. Is there a way to know what the expiration date will be? I will be buying a DVC AP voucher next month for myself (to be activated on the Dec/2017 trip). The following year we are going to Aulani so I will not need another AP until spring or fall of 2019. I would want to apply the unused Hopper at that point (if in fact he does not end up going).

1. Correct.

3. Don't worry about the expiration date.
Even after a ticket "expires," its original purchase price can be applied to buying a new ticket.
The "expiration" only applies to it being used to enter a park.

 

[knockUout]

I have an unused one day ticket for Disney Quest. Can this be applied to a one day water park ticket?

Likely.
Even more of a chance after DQ closes in July.
