Hi Amy,
Welcome to planDisney and thank you for your question!
When it comes to activating your ticket,
your usage window begins when you tap your ticket against the Mickey turnstile. So if you’re planning to go to
Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park prior to your first day in one of the Theme Parks, your usage window would begin when you enter the Water Park. I suggest counting out the number of days to ensure that your ticket stretches out for your entire vacation and doesn't
expire since you’d be beginning a few days early in your vacation.
If you decide against starting your ticket usage early, you can always enjoy your pool amenities at your
Disney Resorts Collection hotel! You can also spend time over at
Disney Springs to do some shopping and try some different types of cuisine.
I hope this “Bit By Bryanna” is helpful as you prepare for your vacation this summer. If you have any other planning or vacation questions,
please feel free to reach out, I’m always happy to help!
The Magic Is Calling,
Bryanna
