Hi Cynthia,
Welcome to planDisney! It's always a treat to hear from a fellow Floridian who loves Walt Disney World and a bargain.
You are correct that the Disney Summer 4-day ticket promotion for Florida residents ends on October 3. But good news: There's a year-round discount for Florida residents that you will be able to take advantage of that offers savings of up to 40% off standard ticket prices.
You can find that offer
here, in the Florida Resident Tickets section.
Did you know, Cynthia, that you can
upgrade those tickets to an annual pass? If you decide that four days of Disney fun isn't enough, you can apply the value of those tickets to an annual pass. Just make sure you visit a Guest Relations location before the end of the last day your tickets are valid.
You can also use the My Disney Experience App to upgrade or
call the Tickets and Hotel Reservations line to speak with a cast member.
I'm a huge fan of the annual pass. As an annual passholder, you get a host of benefits. Some of my favorites are free standard parking at the theme parks, discounts on merchandise, dining, and resort stays, and the special perks, such as frequent character magnet giveaways. Florida residents can also spread the cost of passes over 12 months interest free.
I hope that gives you all the information you need to get your discounted tickets and to start planning your October itinerary.
Enjoy,
Wilma
