Hello Sally!
Like Sally from the Disney Pixar Cars movie series, I am glad you to see you are "just passing through" the Disney Parks Moms Panel searching for an answer. I can't promise you we have a hot shot Piston Cup race driver on the panel, but we do have plenty of fellow Guests who love to lend a helping hand every chance we get. It would be a win-win for me to assist you today.
My youngest son is nine years old and is on the brink of turning ten for our next Walt Disney World adventure so I feel your concern. Very much like Peter Pan I would love for him to never grow up, but he thinks it is a cool milestone to be considered a "Disney adult". At ten years-old your son is eligible to purchase an adult theme park ticket. I have never known the Cast Members at the gate to question proof of age, but I am glad that like Pinocchio you can not lie. If your son is turning ten before the trip, he will need an adult ticket. With all that is happening around the world it can be very worrisome that new tickets are not being sold. However, since you have an existing ticket I would advise you to contact the
Existing Tickets Department an explain your situation. Please stress to them that because of your rescheduled vacation your son has grown a year older and will need an adult ticket. The good news, however, is that since there is a valid ticket linked to your
My Disney Experience account, you will be able to make park reservations for your Easter trip. Park reservations can be made using the
Disney Parks Pass system. You can make these reservations now if you have tickets and have a Disney Resort hotel stay booked, or on June 28, 2020 if you are staying offsite.
I always encourage my fellow Guests to keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog, and the
Update on Walt Disney World Resort Operations page on the Walt Disney World website. Both of these informative sites will provide the latest and greatest information regarding any up-to-date news about the Walt Disney World Resort. As always the Disney Parks Moms Panelists are also available to assist you anytime you need as well.
Dream as Dreamers Do,
Jen
