Hiya, Veronica! Welcome to planDisney and thanks for stopping by with such a great question!
I am so excited to see the magic is calling you, Veronica, and that you and your friend are answering the call by planning a magical adventure at The Most Magical Place on Earth! How fun! And since you have your
vacation package, including your oh-so-awesome
Disney Resort hotel room and
theme park tickets, booked and ready, it sounds like your planning is off to a practically perfect start. Now, let's tie up your loose planning ends so you and your friend can sit back, relax and start your countdown to the magic!
Once your friend taps into a theme park and uses that first ticket, the tickets are no longer able to be transferred to anyone else. So, unfortunately, your friend won't be able to transfer the last remaining ticket for you to use. But Hakuna Matata! It means "no worries." My family and I love to hit the parks even on a travel day, and I have some tips for you to maximize the magic before your friend's flight.
When deciding which park to go to on your travel day, consider the parks' opening hours and which theme park is the easiest and/or fastest to get to from your Resort. I usually like to get an early start to maximize the fun, so I choose a park that opens earlier or the park that is closest to my Resort. I also love going to either Magic Kingdom Park or Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park on a travel day, because they typically open pretty early, and if you arrive early, you can squeeze in
so many awesome attractions in just one morning.
Be sure to take advantage of
Early Theme Park Entry for Disney Resort Hotel Guests to add even more time to your last Disney day and have a rough plan of which attractions you want to head to first. Then, on that last day, you and your friend can leave your luggage with Bell Services at your Resort and head to the park for one last hurrah. When the time has come to say goodbye, your friend can head back to the Resort hotel, grab their things from Bell Services and head to the airport with a heart full of pixie dust.
While this probably wasn't the answer you were hoping for, Veronica, I hope it was at least helpful and I hope your friend gets to use their last ticket day! The tickets are your keys to the magic, and we don't want a single drop to go to waste. Please stop by any time with any questions you may have along the way!
See ya real soon,
Mandy
