Hi Christy,
Welcome back to planDisney! It’s always great to see a familiar name pop up with another thoughtful question.
You’ve tapped into one of my favorite topics, special offers at
Walt Disney World Resort. The
Special Offers, Deals & Discounts page is always worth keeping an eye on. Some of the promotions they roll out can add so much value to your trip. One standout is the 3-Day, 3-Park Ticket that lets you visit Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, and EPCOT. My family jumped on this exact offer last year for my son’s 10th birthday. He dove headfirst into pin trading, insisted on “fancy” steak dinners, and lit up while exploring EPCOT. For once, I got to slow down and see the parks through his eyes instead of racing from one Lightning Lane return time to the next. It was a trip I’ll never forget.
Now, let’s talk about adding that extra day. The good news is, yes, you can purchase a single-day ticket for Magic Kingdom Park and use it during the span of your 3-Day, 3-Park ticket. You don’t need to wait until one ticket type is completely used up before starting another. As long as both tickets are properly linked in your MyDisney account and visible in the
My Disney Experience app, the system will know exactly which one to use. So when you scan into Magic Kingdom, your 1-Day ticket will be used for entry, and your 3-Day ticket won’t be affected. That’s one of the great things about how Disney’s ticketing system works. It’s designed to be simple for guests. Just make sure your tickets are linked, and let the tech take care of the rest.
I hope this helps you plan the perfect lineup of park days. And if you have more questions about dining, shows, or where to find the best Mickey-shaped snacks,
I’m always here to help.
See you real soon,
Brent
