Hi Lori! Welcome to planDisney. How exciting that you have a visit to the
Walt Disney World Resort coming up! There’s something so fun about reaching the stage of planning where the countdown starts to feel real, and I’d be happy to help you sort out your theme park ticket dates.
The good news is that if you purchased
date-based theme park tickets, you can usually modify the start date as long as the change is made before the original valid start date arrives. To update your ticket dates, log into your
My Disney Experience account on the Walt Disney World website and head to the “My Plans, Reservations and Tickets” section. From there, select “Tickets, Passes & Memory Maker,” locate your tickets, and choose the “Change Ticket” option to adjust your dates.
One important thing to keep in mind is that ticket pricing can vary depending on the time of year. If your newly selected dates cost more than your original dates, you’ll simply pay the difference in price when making the change.
If you run into any issues while updating the tickets, or if the tickets were purchased through a third-party seller, I recommend reaching out to a Cast Member with
Disney Resort Hotel Reservations and Tickets. They’re wonderful at helping Guests untangle ticket questions and can walk you through any additional steps that may be needed.
Since you’re already in planning mode, this is also a great time to explore some of the exciting experiences happening around Walt Disney World this summer. The upcoming
Cool Kid Summer celebration will bring extra entertainment and activities across the resort, including appearances from Bluey and Bingo at
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park and updates to
Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin in
Magic Kingdom Park. Summer evenings can be especially memorable at Walt Disney World too, whether you’re watching Happily Ever After light up Cinderella Castle or enjoying a stroll around World Showcase with a snack in hand as the torches begin to glow around
EPCOT.
I hope this helps you feel more confident as you finalize your plans, Lori. If any other questions pop up while preparing for your Walt Disney World vacation, please visit us again at planDisney. We’re always happy to help you make your Disney getaway as smooth and magical as possible.
Wishing you a wonderful trip filled with unforgettable memories and plenty of pixie dust!
