Disney World Ticket Pricing Changes

Walt Disney World has changed the formatting for the ticket options as of October, 16th 2018. The biggest change we’ve seen is the move towards seasonal pricing for Walt Disney World tickets which is meant to spread attendance out throughout the year by offering lower prices in non-peak season but you can expect to pay more during popular times of the year.

All Walt Disney World tickets, including multi-day, will be subject to date-based pricing and different lengths of valid use when purchased on October 16, 2018 or after.

When you purchase the new seasonal tickets you will first select the date and the number of days you would like to visit. After the information is selected, there will be the option to change ticket type (1 Park per Day, Park Hopper, or Park Hopper Plus) or add on the Flexible Dates Option.

The Flexible Dates Option allows guests to begin using their ticket any day from now through December 31, 2019 with 14 days to use the remaining days from then. The price will vary depending on the price of your ticket.

• Guests staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel will notice their tickets’ lengths of valid use corresponds to the number of nights they are staying.

• For example, a 5-Day 1 Park per Day Ticket for February would cost around $75 to upgrade with this option while it would cost only about $33 if that ticket were for a higher priced date in June.

Once tickets are purchased, guests will be able to modify them via My Disney Experience. This includes changing dates and/or extending ticket length. Additional fees may apply for tickets of higher value, although no refund will be given if tickets are changed to a lower cost date.

• Keep in mind that any FastPass+ selections made before you change your tickets will need to be reselected once ticket dates or lengths have been changed

As usual, tickets are nonrefundable although the price paid for a wholly unused ticket can be applied to a new ticket purchase after expiration date.

The Disney Parks Blog provides a nice introduction video to how purchasing these tickets will work along with an infographic (seen above) to help guests see the impact of this change.

So now what do we do with all that information? The biggest thing to understand is that the time of year you visit will impact the cost of your tickets. If you visit during a peak time of year then you can expect to pay higher prices. But if you visit during a typically less busy time of year, you can expect to pay lower prices on tickets.

And with using date specific dates comes understanding how many days after their start date they are valid for. We’ve put together a chart below that will help you see how long tickets bought separately (packages work a little differently) will stay valid for so you can play your vacation effectively.

1-Day	Just the date you select
2-Day	Any 2 days within 4 days after the start date
3-Day	Any 3 days within 5 days after the start date
4-Day	Any 4 days within 7 days after the start date
5-Day	Any 5 days within 8 days after the start date
6-Day	Any 6 days within 9 days after the start date
7-Day	Any 7 days within 10 days after the start date
8-Day	Any 8 days within 12 days after the start date
9-Day	Any 9 days within 13 days after the start date
10-Day	Any 10 days within 14 days after the start date

*Park Hopper Plus tickets add one extra day to the validity period for tickets.

The length of time your tickets are valid for work differently when you book a Disney World Vacation Package. The length of time you can use your tickets is determined by the length of your stay. So for example, if you have a 2-day ticket but your length of stay is 5 days- your ticket valid period is extended for the duration of your stay offering you more flexibility. But if your length of stay time is shorter than the period of valid use offered in the chart above, you get the longer length of time between the two options.

Additionally, now all the Walt Disney World tickets won’t charge price per park any longer. The prices are now reflected by day- not by which park you choose. This will come to a relief to some guests that may have been frustrated to note that the 1-day Magic Kingdom ticket prices were typically higher than the other parks.

So with all that in mind, it is now a better deal than ever to book with our trusted travel partner and book a Walt Disney World package!

And booking with a travel agent or directly through Walt Disney World makes things easier for guests in terms of figuring out how to navigate these changes. Leave it to the experts!

How much are Disney World tickets?

Below are the full prices Walt Disney World ticket prices you will pay when purchasing at any Walt Disney World ticket booth. Theme park tickets are subject to tax in Florida. The tax has been included in the prices below.

Note: this pricing has now been updated as Disney World has moved to seasonal ticket pricing so we studied the ticket prices and put in the minimum to maximum range you would expect to pay for each type of ticket year round. Keep in mind that the ticket price will be lower during less popular times of year. And you will pay the higher end of the range during peak times of the year like summer, holidays, and spring breaks.

How many days do you need on your discount Disney World tickets 2019?

Unlike our guide to discount Disneyland tickets, I don’t have a definitive answer to how long you should visit Disney World. Below I attempt to cover the varying lengths of stay you should consider for your Walt Disney World vacation and where you can find the cheapest Disney World discount tickets.

Picking which ticket type and how long to stay is a crucial part of planning your vacation. Vacations to Walt Disney World can vary greatly. Depending on what you decide to do, you could be in the parks for seven days straight or you could never set foot in the parks and enjoy your on property hotel pool the entire trip. Most people choose to find a happy medium between these two points.

I highly recommend you develop your entire itinerary for your Disney World vacation before you purchase these cheap Disney World tickets. The right type of ticket will depend on what you want to achieve during your trip and when you choose to visit Disney World (see our Disney World crowd calendar here).

Let’s dive into the important decisions you need to make about your Walt Disney World tickets:

1. How many days should you visit Disney World? Definitely plan to visit Disney World for longer than one day. Not only does are no Walt Disney World discount tickets available for 1 day, there is just too much to see in Walt Disney World to accomplish it all in one day. The longer you visit Walt Disney World, the cheaper it is per day. After four days, additional days cost less than $20- depending on the time of year you visit. The longer you can stay, the more of Disney World you will be able to see and experience at a leisurely pace. The least amount of time I recommend for a Disney World vacation is five days. This is the absolute minimum to experience every park at least once, plus one extra day to return to enjoy things you missed. There are so many great experiences at Walt Disney World in 2019.
2. Do you want to be able to park hop? Park hopping is defined as going between multiple theme parks during one day. For example, you may want to start out the day at Animal Kingdom, but then head over to Epcot for dinner and the night time show. You have to chose whether you want to be confined to just one park all day or if you want the option to switch around during the day.
3. Do you want to be able to go to the Disney water parks? If you are at all interested in enjoying the two Disney World water parks, Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach, during your stay, be sure to add the Water Park Fun and More option to your tickets. Purchasing the add on is less expensive for a single trip than purchasing separate Water Park tickets as long as you have the Magic Your Way Park Hopper ticket. If you have the one park per day Magic Your Way ticket, then purchasing the Disney World Water Park Fun and More ticket add on is less expensive than individual tickets if you plan on visiting two or more times. When you are deciding how long to visit Disney World, be sure to remember that the water parks require at least half a day to experience. You can easily spend 2-3 full days enjoying the water parks.

The optimal Disney World vacation is built off of a week long break where you purchase a seven day pass and enjoy a leisurely pace. Start off your day early in the morning at one of the theme parks, then head back to the pool, and then perhaps return to one of the theme parks for dinner.

All of these add ons can be purchased easily through Get Away Today, the company providing the best Disney World discount tickets anywhere.

When do Walt Disney World Ticket Prices Go Up?

For the last couple of years Walt Disney World has raised their prices every February. You can see the updated current dates and information on the Disney ticket price increase here.

Typically the ticket price increases range from about $5-$50. The 1 day tickets always have the highest percentage increase.

You never know when Walt Disney World will increase their ticket prices once again. Purchase your Walt Disney World tickets now to lock in the current gate prices. Tickets that are unused do not expire. Once you have your travel dates locked in, lock in the current cheap Walt Disney World ticket prices.

Types of Walt Disney World Tickets 2019

There are a number of different types of Walt Disney World tickets. Throughout your Disney World planning you will see the term Magic Your Way Disney World ticket thrown around. Magic Your Way tickets are defined by Disney as tickets that give you entrance into the theme parks for a number of specific days (this category does not include any year long Disney World Annual Passes). All of the Walt Disney World ticket types that are sold in the United States expire fourteen days after first use.

1 Day Disney World Tickets

Disney recently changed their ticket pricing to be based on the day of attendance. During expected slower times of the year, you can expect to save more money on your tickets. During peak times of the year, you can expect to pay higher ticket prices. Walt Disney World Peak tickets make up dates in the height of summer, spring break season, and the busy Disney Christmas season from the beginning of Thanksgiving all the way through New Year’s Eve.

These tickets expire on December 31st of the year after you purchase the Walt Disney World tickets. So, if you purchased a ticket in 2017, it would expire on December 31, 2018.

Sadly, there are no cheap one day Disney World tickets available to the general public.

Two Day and Longer Disney World Tickets

The Magic Your Way Disney World tickets are all based off the amount of days you want on your base ticket to enter one of the four main Disney World theme parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom).

The lowest priced Disney World tickets for two days and longer can be purchased here. (This is a private link that loads discount Disney World ticket prices only available to Mickey Visit discount Walt Disney World readers.)

The base ticket allows you to visit any one of these theme parks for a day, with unlimited in and out privileges.

You may upgrade your tickets to include the Park Hopper option which would allow you unlimited in and out privileges for all four theme parks in the course of a single day. The Disney World tickets with the Park Hopper add on are most helpful for people who plan on staying four days or longer and want to jump around in the later days after already having spent a full day at each Walt Disney World theme park.

You may upgrade your ticket to a Park Hopper ticket any time within the fourteen days after your first day of ticket use.

The other add on is the Water Park Fun and More option. This option allows for entrance into one of the “extra” special Walt Disney World experiences including the two water parks and and other activities like a round of golf. See our full section on the Disney World Water Park Fun and More tickets below.

[mashshare]

Park Hopper Walt Disney World Ticket

Adding the Park Hopper option to your Walt Disney World ticket allows you to go to all four Walt Disney World theme parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom) on a single day.

When you use the regular base Walt Disney World tickets you still have access to all four theme parks, however you can only visit one park per day. Whichever park you enter in the morning is the only theme park you can enter that day. With the Park Hopper option for your Disney World ticket you can come and go between parks as much as you please.

Keep in mind that switching between parks at Walt Disney World can be somewhat of an ordeal that can take around an hour. During my trip, we would generally switch parks after going back to the hotel for an afternoon nap or swim. This is a great way to skip all the lines at one park in the morning and plan to enjoy dinner in a different Walt Disney World theme park later that night.

You can see all of the lowest priced discount Disney World Park Hopper tickets here.

Park Hopper Plus Walt Disney World Tickets

The Park Hopper Plus tickets give you the ticket options to experience all of the below Walt Disney World attractions:

• one day admission to Typhoon Lagoon water park
• one day admission to Blizzard Beach water park
• one round of golf at the Oak Trail nine hole family walking course. Does not include clubs or pull cart. Children’s clubs are free. Reservations are required. Ask your Disney hotel concierge for free cab ride coupon when you head to the course. You may only play one round of golf per day with the Water Park Fun and More ticket.
• access to ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, not including any event ticket cost
• entrance to the DisneyQuest indoor arcade and experience. This option is not being promoted currently as DisneyQuest is rumored to be closing sometime soon. For the time being though, you can still use these Water Park Fun and More tickets for entrance to the attraction.

Purchasing the Park Hopper Plus Option Walt Disney World ticket will provide you with an equal amount of admissions to the experiences listed as the amount of ticket days you have to the four main Walt Disney World theme parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom). The only exception is that a one day Disney World ticket with the Water Park Fun and More ticket add on includes two entrances to the attractions listed below. Note that all Walt Disney World tickets expire fourteen days after the first use meaning that if you purchased a seven day ticket, you would literally have to visit two extra experiences on top of your visit to the Disney World theme park to use all of your tickets. Disney understands this, which is why the price does not increase very much as the length of stay increases.

Adding the Park Hopper Plus option to your Walt Disney World tickets is generally worth it. However, the value really depends on where you spend your tickets.

Each admission or round of golf counts as one tick of your total, no matter how many things your experience in one day. You will only be charged one ticket when going in and out of the same water park on one calendar day. Thus, you may go to the water park in the morning, head back to your hotel for a break, and then return in the afternoon all while using the same entrance ticket. Switching water parks would force you to spend two ticket clicks.

Take a look at the cost for entrance to the attractions when you purchase admission separately from your regular ticket.

• Blizzard Beach: Ages 10+ for $60, Ages 3-9 for $54
• Typhoon Lagoon: Ages 10+ for $60, Ages 3-9 for $54
• DisneyQuest: Ages 10+ for $47.93, Ages 3-9 for $39
• Oak Trail Golf Course: Adult 10+ for $40, 17 and under for $21 (per round)
• ESPN Wide World of Sports: Adult 10+ for $15.00, Ages 3-9 for $10.00
• Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf: Adult 10+ for $14.00, Ages 3-9 for $11.00
• Winter Summerland Miniature Golf: Ages 10+ for $14.00, Ages 3-9 for $11.00

As you can see above, the add on to your Walt Disney World ticket is absolutely worth it if you will be visiting one of the water parks, DisneyQuest, or the Oak Trail Golf Course two times or more.

You can start your trip with the Park Hopper Plus Walt Disney World ticket at any of the attractions listed above or one of the main four theme parks. Your ticket will be valid fourteen days from the first use regardless of where that first use is.

You can access the lowest priced cheap Disney World tickets with the Park Hopper Plus option by purchasing via our private discount Get Away Today links on the page.

Disney does not sell tickets for more than 10 days. While the official policy is to suggest you purchase multiple tickets or a Walt Disney World Annual Pass, I have a better solution. You are not required to use your Disney World tickets consecutively. Your tickets are valid for 14 days after the first use. If you are going to take a long vacation, why not explore some of the other areas around Disney World. You can spend multiple days just exploring all of the hotels and riding all of the awesome Disney transportation (monorail, boats, buses). Another option is purchasing tickets to Universal Orlando to experience the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and other attractions.

Important ticket information on old Walt Disney World tickets

The “No Expiration” Disney World ticket option is no longer available. However if you previously purchased a Disney World no expiration ticket for your child (this was discontinued in 2015) and they are now over ten years old, this ticket will be upgraded free of charge to an adult Walt Disney World ticket. See one of the Guest Relations windows for a free ticket upgrade.

What age are kids free at Disney World?

Children under the age of three are free at Disney World. You are not required to purchase any ticket for them.

If a member of your group is under three years old you do not have to pay for tickets, dining, or have a FastPass for them. No ticket is required even if your child is turning three during your Walt Disney World trip. No proof of age is required for this free entrance.

Why Buy Walt Disney World Tickets in Advance?

Purchasing Walt Disney World tickets in advance is necessary to setup your FastPass+ reservations for your entire vacation. With the new FastPass system, the reservations for attractions sell out quickly–well before the same day. You can only make these reservations once you have purchased your WDW tickets and registered them with the My Disney Experience website.

If you wait to purchase your Walt Disney World tickets until you actually arrive at the resort, not only do you miss out on the opportunity to save money on tickets, but you don’t get to schedule FastPass for all of the attractions you want to experience. This will invariably cause you to miss out on some of the top Walt Disney World attractions.

Bottom line: Buy your Walt Disney World tickets in advance. Buy discount Walt Disney World tickets here.

Walt Disney World Annual Passes

If you plan on visiting Walt Disney World for longer than eleven days during one trip (within 14 days of each other) or eight or more days for two trips or more over the course of one year, you will likely save money by purchasing one of the Disney World Annual Passes. These passports include not only entrance to the theme parks, but Disney World discounts on dining and hotels.

The Walt Disney World annual pass is good for 366 days from the day you first use the pass as your Disney World ticket.

If you plan an annual Walt Disney World vacation, consider planning your second vacation a little earlier so that you can have one purchase of an annual pass cover your tickets to the Disney World theme parks for two trips. Attempt to have both Walt Disney World vacations within the same 366 day time window.

Even for shorter vacations, you should look into purchasing a Walt Disney World annual passport for one person in your group. There are quite a few Disney World discounts only provided to passholders.

In summary, if you are purchasing anything at Walt Disney World, ask for an Annual Pass discount. Almost all services offer some sort of benefit to passholders.

Where to buy 2019 discount Disney World Annual Passes?

Annual Passes to Walt Disney World can be purchased at a variety of places. Make sure that you go to one of the locations listed below that sells Disney World ticket vouchers rather than one that sells active Annual Passports. The Walt Disney World ticket vouchers will not be activated until the first day you use your new Disney World Annual Pass, while the active Annual Passports have their clocks ticking from the moment you purchase them.

When you purchase a Walt Disney World Annual Passport in advance you will be given a plastic card that is your ticket voucher that must be exchanged for the actual Annual Passport. To activate the passport you will need to provide a ticket finger scan and show photo ID. This finger scan will be associated with your Disney World ticket and be required for entrance to any of the Walt Disney World theme parks.

When you activate your Disney World Annual Passport, make sure to confirm that the expiration date is 366 days from the date you are activating the pass. Sometime the system will glitch and mess up expiration dates.

• Online at the official Walt Disney World tickets website. There is a $5 Disney World tickets mailing fee required with this purchase.
• You can call Walt Disney World ticketing directly at 407-WDISNEY and have the ticket vouchers sent to you ($5 mailing fee) or have them waiting for you at the Walt Disney World tickets Will Call window (this option is free).
• Disney Vacation Club Members can purchase Disney World Annual Passports from DVC Member Services with a $5 mailing fee.
• Many Disney Store locations throughout the United States will save you a Disney World ticket voucher that you can redeem for your Annual Pass when you arrive at Walt Disney World.
• You can purchase active Walt Disney World Annual Passes when you arrive at the Disney World ticket window.
• All Guest Relations windows at the four main theme parks and water parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon) or at two Disney Spring locations (Marketplace or West Side). These windows will sell you active Walt Disney World annual passports, but ticket vouchers are available by request.

The Premier Pass (with access to both Disneyland in California and Walt Disney World in Florida) which must be purchased in person at a Walt Disney World ticket booth or Disneyland ticket booth.

Definitely purchase a Walt Disney World Annual Passport before leaving for your trip so that you can start planning with the My Magic + app. You can use the app by entering the code on your ticket voucher. So, make sure to purchase the voucher early before your trip so that you can start securing FastPass+ reservations and dining reservations.

Another reason to purchase an Annual Passport ticket voucher in advance of your trip is to avoid any price increases. Walt Disney World typically increases ticket prices yearly. It is always a good idea to purchase your tickets once you have a trip confirmed. Walt Disney World Annual Passport vouchers can be redeemed years after purchase and not have to pay any upcharge even if the price has gone up substantially. Currently the expiration date on ticket vouchers purchased to be exchanged for Walt Disney World Annual Passports is 2030. If for some reason you don’t redeem your voucher for tickets before then, the voucher will turn into a gift card and can be applied to a future purchase.

Florida Resident 2019 Disney World Discount Tickets

To purchase a Florida Resident ticket, you must have proof of Florida Residency. The tickets are actually linked to a finger scan to prevent you from transferring the tickets to people who don’t live in Florida.

For those who have a home in Florida, but don’t have their primary ID with the Florida address, you can usually present some other proof of residence within the state along with your ID. Timeshares are not considered residences.

Discount Disney World Tickets 2019 Costco

Some Costco locations carry exclusive discounted Walt Disney World tickets. Occasionally Costco will have a certain amount of tickets to push and will put them out on the floor of their stores.

When these discount tickets are gone, there is no telling when they will be back in the stores. The Costco website does have information on purchasing Walt Disney World tickets, but these tickets are more expensive than the Get Away Today rates we recommend above.

Discount Disney World Tickets 2019 Sam’s Club

Sam’s Club and other wholesale resale stores will have special discount Disney World tickets on occasion. These cheap tickets will just pop up on the floor. The Sam’s Club store also has a travel division, but this functions just like a regular travel agency and can’t get you any exclusive deal.

The best deal you can get from Sam’s Club is through the purchase of discounted Disney gift cards. For example they may sell a $100 gift card for $97. These savings can add up over the course of your vacation.

Get Away Today still typically beats the Disney World ticket prices from Sam’s Club, but it is always worth checking.

AARP Disney World Deals and Discounts 2019

The AARP works with Expedia to provide senior discounts to many tourist destinations. The prices that they have secured for Walt Disney World are not a worthy discount.

I frequently get questions about whether the AARP discount tickets are a good discount. Sadly, they are not. The Get Away Today discount tickets rate is much lower.

Discount Walt Disney World Tickets 2019 For UK and European Union

There are specific discount Disney World tickets for people living in UK or European Union. These specific discounts can only be purchased by residents of the EU or UK and are not available to US citizens.

The tickets are very unique because they include much longer ticket lengths of stay. There are international Walt Disney World tickets available for 7 days, 14 days, and 21 days. These are all an effort to capture the international tourist market.

These cheap tickets can not be purchased at Walt Disney World and must be purchased in advance on the UK website.

Purchase these longer length of stay tickets on the official website here.

The value of the special international tickets varies greatly based on the fluctuating exchange rate. Remember to always compare discount ticket prices because often the lowest priced tickets can be found via our partner Get Away Today. Make a direct comparison by comparing both ticket prices to US dollars.

WDW Military Discount Walt Disney World Discount Tickets 2019 MWR

The Walt Disney World Resort is proud to honor veterans and the military. They offer discount military tickets to all active and retired military personnel, plus Department of Defense civilian employees. The cheap tickets also apply to all dependents in the group they are traveling with.

When using the military discount tickets, Disney Cast Members will often check your ID at the gate. Tickets may be given to all members of a group so long as at least 50% of the group qualify for the discount military tickets, meaning they are active, retired, or dependent. Entrance to the Walt Disney World theme parks may be denied if valid identification is not provided with the use of the discount Disney World military tickets.

You can purchase the military and Department of Defense discount tickets here:

• Discount tickets can be purchased on the local military base in the tickets and services office.
• Cheaper Disney tickets can also be purchased with a Military ID at the Shades of Green military operated resort located at Walt Disney World.
• Certain branches of the government have access to the same discount Disney World tickets when purchasing through their human resources departments. Your success will vary.

Purchase your cheap tickets in advance because the discounted Walt Disney World tickets sell out quickly. See all info here.

Discount Disney World Tickets For Youth Education Series

Throughout the year Disney offers a program called the Disney Youth Education Series or YES for short. The program includes Walt Disney World tickets and educational classes on topics ranging from marine biology to leadership. All of the classes are taught at the Walt Disney World Resort. In addition to the awesome classes, everyone who is traveling in the party gets to purchase cheap Disney World tickets.

Take a look at the official Disney Youth Education Series classes offered here.

Corporate and Government Agency Walt Disney World Discount Tickets

Disney does provide discount Walt Disney World tickets to large corporations and government agencies. You should check with the Human Resources department for more information.

Disney Corporate Sponsors almost always have huge discounts for their employees on Disneyland tickets, or can even give away free Disney World tickets. If your company has done any large corporate sponsorship work with the Disney Parks or The Walt Disney Company, definitely check to see if you get special cheap Disney World tickets.

Word of caution: Always remember to compare these tickets to the Get Away Today discount ticket prices. I negotiated the lowest possible prices on tickets available to the general public. Often the tickets from Get Away Today are cheaper Disney World tickets than any corporate discount.

Timeshare Free Disney World Tickets 2019

Some websites promoting free or cheap Disney World tickets may be offering the tickets as a way to get you to come hear their timeshare pitch. Companies that are participating in this discount Disney tickets “promotion” will usually have a disclaimer at the bottom of the website explaining that the tickets are being used to “solicit sales” of the timeshare resort near Walt Disney World.

Many timeshare resorts will provide discount Disney World tickets or even free tickets in exchange for listening to a pitch to purchase a timeshare unit. Be careful! Our family fell into this trap in Hawaii where a travel desk on the main walking street had fantastic discounts on tickets for attractions all over the area, but right as we were finishing up, she said the ticket deals were only good if we went to a timeshare presentation. We went to the presentation, but that was ninety minutes we’ll never get back.

Caution: Fake Cheap Disney World Tickets 2019

There are scams out there that will attempt to sell you fake tickets to Walt Disney World. If you see tickets that are going for extremely low prices, chances are the website is not actually selling real discount Disney World tickets.

NEVER buy Walt Disney World passes from any online store that does not have an affiliation with Disney.

Clear Warning Signs For Spammy Walt Disney World Ticket Websites:

• Do not purchase tickets if Disney is in the base URL ( www. discount walt disney world tickets .com ) Disney does not allow their affiliated resellers to have Disney in the URL of the website. Authorized resellers will typically have a fun name and then have Disney tickets written in the url after the slash mark ( www. get away today .com / walt disney world cheap tickets)
• If you are required to pick up your tickets the morning of your vist, the tickets may have already been used. Never purchase used cheap Disney World tickets.
• There are no one day Walt Disney World discount tickets available to the general public. Do NOT purchase a discounted one day Walt Disney World ticket.
• Avoid purchasing tickets with cash or a debit card. Both of these payment methods are untraceable. If you are required to use either method to pay for your cheap Walt Disney World tickets, DO NOT purchase your tickets from that seller.

eBay and Craigslist are frequently filled with these type of fake discount Walt Disney World tickets. Be careful and avoid ever purchasing tickets from these websites. Each year news stories come out about people who fell for the scam and purchased “cheap Disney World tickets” on these sites. DO NOT USE THESE TICKET SITES!

Sometimes scammers will shoplift real Walt Disney World tickets from the Disney Stores. These tickets will look perfectly real when presented to you, but they have not been activated yet.

If any of the above information appears to be true, run away from these non-Disney approved discount ticket websites. They are fake and spammy.

Resale sites like Get Away Today, our recommended partner with the lowest prices on Walt Disney World tickets, have a very low profit margin.

Info on Lost Walt Disney World Tickets 2019

As soon as you have your Disney World tickets in your hand, take a picture of the back so that if you lose your tickets you will have all the necessary coding and information for Walt Disney World guest relations to void your old tickets and print new Disney World tickets for you. This is especially important if you purchased discount Disney World tickets because the receipt from the cheap ticket resellers will not be able to pull up your ticket information, while a receipt from a purchase of Disney tickets from a Disney ticket booth can pull your ticket information.

Even though Disney is not officially obligated to replace your tickets, they will almost always replace them for you. If you lose your tickets inside one of the theme parks, remain in the park and proceed to the guest relations office where they can assist you. They will be able to void your old Walt Disney World tickets and replace them. If you already exited the parks, ask a Cast Member where the Guest Relations window outside the park gates is.

Even if you don’t have a photo of your Disney World tickets as suggested above, Walt Disney World Guest Relations can help you replace your tickets if you have any receipt or paper with your ticket information encoded on it.

Lost Walt Disney World Annual Passports can be replaced easily by bringing a copy of your photo ID to any Disney World Guest Relations window.

One final thought on lost Disney World tickets…

If you find your tickets after previously reporting that they were lost, be sure to tear them in half and throw them away. Accidently using the old tickets for entrance into a Disney World theme park will lead to a massive headache filled process with Disney Security as they question you on where you got tickets that were reported missing.
