Hiya Kathy! Welcome to planDisney!
I'm always happy to be able to help a fellow New Yorker, so let's get to your question, shall we?
If you ask me, any Walt Disney World Resort vacation is never long enough, so I'm so happy to see that you'll be adding a few extra days in the theme parks to your upcoming visit! While you can't add additional days when purchasing your vacation package, I think you'll be glad to hear that adding extra days to your ticket after purchase is as easy as can be, thanks to your nifty My Disney Experience app. To add to your ticket, simply follow the steps below:
- Log into your My Disney Experience app
- Open the menu by clicking the three horizontal lines on the bottom right corner.
- Then, click on "Tickets and Passes."
- Once that page loads, click on the ticket you would like to add to, and you should see an option to "Change Tickets."
- You'll then need to follow the prompts to check out, and you are all set!
Of course, if for whatever reason you are not seeing this option, you can reach out to the fabulous Cast Members on the Existing Tickets team for help. All you'll need to do is give them a call at (407) 934-7639 and let them know that you would like to add days to your ticket.
Kathy, I just want to quickly remind you to secure your Theme Park Reservations ahead of your trip. You will need to make a reservation for the first park you plan to visit each day. Then, if you have added the Park Hopper Option to your ticket, you can hop over to another park after 2 p.m. each afternoon. Some dates do get booked up, so I recommend securing your Theme Park Reservations are early as possible to make sure you can enjoy all the parks you were hoping to visit.
I am so excited for you to visit Walt Disney World. You will have such an amazing time, especially since you will be visiting during The Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration! Please visit us again soon with any other questions you may have!
Wishing you the most magical vacation!
Diana
