Hi Melanie Jayne!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
It's always a pleasure to help my fellow guests from the UK, and I'm happy to see that you have secured a package to include free dining for 2020. Your 21-day Ultimate Ticket is valid for 21 consecutive days from the first day you use it to enter a theme park, even if it's only for part of that first day. So that means if you activate your ticket on 7th August, the last day you can use it is on 27th August. I often have the same dilemma, if I choose a 14-day Ultimate Ticket for a 17-day holiday. I usually choose to enjoy quieter days at the beginning of the trip, spending time by the pool or at
Disney Springs, therefore shifting the start date of my ticket knowing that I can use it until the very end of my holiday. It's your choice whether you choose more park days at the beginning or the end of your stay, and if you delay using your ticket until 8th August, your last day to use it will be 28th August.
The
UK Ultimate Tickets offer great value, and include unlimited park hopping between the four theme parks, and the two water parks - Disney's Typhoon Lagoon and Disney's Blizzard Beach - and they also include
Memory Maker. You will see Disney's
PhotoPass Photographers around the parks, ready to take photos of you and your family in front of the most iconic locations. I have even seen them wading around the 'lazy rivers' Cross Country Creek and Castaway Creek at the water parks! With Memory Maker you can download all of these photos, and more. Those photos on rides that make you scream? They are included too, along with select character dining and Meet & Greets.
Please come back and visit us if you have any further questions. We will be happy to help you plan your magical holiday to Walt Disney World Resort.
