Validating "non-expiring" 1995 WDW tickets

[mumwiththree]

Hi

We have several days left on our non expiring WDW tickets purchased back in 1995. How do I get these validated for use? We are visiting in October 2010 with our children and will be buying length of stay passes. However my parents (who visited last year and joining us this year) only want to visit the parks once or twice during the stay and wish to use up remaining days on the passes.

If someone could point me in the right direction or have experience of validating such old tickets then that would be great - thank you.

I did this a few months ago by going to Guest Services at MK. Not sure if you can do it remotely.

Hope you don't mind me hi-jacking.

We intend to use non-expiry tickets purchased April 2006 in Oct 2010; will we have to have them validated at Customer Service before use? We know they have 4 park days left on them; will Customer Services be able to tell me how many 'extra' days are left on them - for Water-parks etc?

Guest Services should be able to tell you exactly how many normal park/water park days etc are left on each of the tickets.

They wrote it out for me when I asked about it.

we had what we thought was (convinved were) no expiery tickets last year but when checked at magic kingdom ticket office they said the had expiered and were lfrt with no option but to buy new tickets at the gate.
There does not seem any way prior to gong to Disney to find out what is on your ticket as all the info is in the bar code, if i had known I would have bought tickets here before flying.
Not much help but hope yours tickets are ok

That is my concern. These 5 day hopper tickets were bought the year of the 25th Anniversary so are pretty old but know for sure one day on 4 tickets are still to be used. My parents did disney last year with my sister and her family and are quite happy to relax in the resort and join us for one or two days in the parks using the unused days.

Its a pain there is no way to validate these before leaving to allow them the opportunity to buy tickets here if necessary.

The reason I have heard they can only be checked at WDW is to stop people selling old part used tickets on quite so easily.
