Hi Karen! I'm happy to help you sort out your Walt Disney World ticket options.
First, let's make sure we get you over to the right page. There is a currently a Special Offer for the
4-Park Magic Tickets that expires at the end of September 2019.
1 Park Per Day Tickets, with up to 10 days of Theme Park admission, are currently available to purchase with start dates through the end of December 2019.
You are correct that a 5-Day Theme Park Ticket has a
validity window of 8 days. There are several ways that a validity window can be extended. First, adding the Park Hopper Plus Option will add an extra day of use to your ticket, for a total of 9 days. Another possibility is to purchase the Flexible Dates Option. With this option, you'll have 14 days from the first use of the ticket to use all your admission days. To add either of these options to your
1 Park Per Day Ticket, begin with "Select the Number of Days" you wish for admission, "Choose the First Day of Your Ticket" on the interactive calendar, and "Select the Number of Tickets"; then select "Continue". You'll find the options I mentioned on the "Customize Your Ticket" page.
A third option would be tickets purchased as part of a
Walt Disney World Vacation Package. Tickets will have either the standard validity window, or a window equal to the length of stay, whichever is longer.
Please visit us again if you have additional questions.
