Hi Paul, welcome to planDisney!
You must be so excited to plan your summer visit to Walt Disney World Resort! Hopefully your wife can join you but in case she is unable to, you should be able to modify your ticket dates.
You can
modify your ticket dates in your My Disney Experience account by scrolling to “My Plans, Reservations and Tickets,” selecting “Tickets, Passes & Memory Maker,” and then clicking on “Change Ticket” under the ticket you’d like to modify. You can also complete these steps in the
My Disney Experience mobile app by clicking the three horizontal lines at the bottom right of the app and selecting the tile labeled “Tickets and Passes.” Find the ticket you want to change and select “Change Ticket.” If the new date has a higher price, you will need to pay the difference.
I suggest you check the
Theme Park Reservation Availability calendar prior to changing your ticket dates. Don’t forget that after you modify your ticket date you will need to make a new theme park reservation.
Have you heard about
Disney H2O Glow After Hours at Typhoon Lagoon and
Disney After Hours at EPCOT? These are after hours events where you can experience attractions with shorter wait times, select snacks and beverages included in the ticket cost, and appearances from some Disney characters!
Special Event tickets are on sale now for dates in July, and it looks like you may be visiting during that time.
I hope this was helpful, Paul. Enjoy your visit to Walt Disney World Resort this summer! If you have any future planning questions, please
visit me again at planDisney!
