Hey there, Daniel. Welcome to planDisney. We're so glad you stopped by to share this question with us and I'm delighted to help.
First and foremost, thank you for your service. I'm so glad to hear that you were able to purchase the
Disney Military Promotional Park Hopper Ticket but I am sorry to hear that your friend is no longer able to attend. While theme park tickets are not refundable, I chatted with a Cast Member who shared that if the ticket is wholly unused and you're not able to use it before it expires, the
value of the ticket can be applied toward the purchase of a new ticket as long as the cost of the new ticket is equal to or greater than the amount paid for an original ticket. However, because your friend might not be able to visit for another three years, it may be best to reach out to a friendly Cast Member at the
phone line for Tickets to see if this is still valid with your particular scenario.
Daniel, while I wish I had a better answer to share, I hope this information is still helpful. I hope that you and your friend will be able to make a magical visit together sooner rather than later. No matter what happens, the magic will always be waiting and ready for you.
See ya real soon,
Michelle
