Hello Michelle! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
The Special Offer for 4-Park Tickets for All Guests is an excellent deal for
anyone interested in stepping into all 4 Walt Disney World Resort Theme Parks during a visit.
You need not be concerned that your 4-Park Tickets will go to waste! If you cannot make your upcoming scheduled trip, your 4-day tickets are valid for up to 14 days after your eventual first visit until December 31, 2018. Tickets are nonrefundable, nontransferable and exclude activities/events separately priced, so unfortunately, the option for "Disney Credit" does not apply. If you are considering purchasing tickets, you should be confident that you will be able to redeem them before January 1st, 2019 to alleviate your concerns.
Whatever you decide, be sure to keep up-to-date with
all of the Special Offer promotions for a Walt Disney World Resort Vacation, which currently include the Fun & Sun Offer to receive up to 25% off for stays most nights from February 20 through June 10, 2017 (book through April 29, 2017). If your current plans for a second Walt Disney World Resort trip fall through, a new Special Offer may be released allowing you to capitalize on your already purchased 4-Park Magic Tickets.
As a Canadian Resident, I recently took advantage of the Save 25% Special Offer for Walt Disney World Resort Tickets for a vacation-to-be-planned later, comfortable knowing that I will be able to use the tickets eventually and can capitalize on the Special Offer, today.
Good Luck and Happy Planning!
