    Hi there, Can we purchase physical tickets for other people at guest relations without them being present at the time of purchase?

    Hey there, Luanne, and welcome back to planDisney!

    Someone buying me tickets to the Disney parks sounds like they're locking in their spot as the favorite family member or friend. In most cases, you can purchase them at Guest Relations locations and theme park ticket windows at the front of every park, even when they are not present. You'll need a little information to get started.

    Have the full names of the Guests that will be using the tickets. Once you've got those tickets in hand, you can give them to the intended recipient, and they'll be able to link them to their My Disney Experience app. Just note that you'll need more info for certain ticket types, such as Florida Resident tickets. 

    Pro-tip: Purchasing your tickets ahead of time will actually make it easier for you all to manage plans together, like Lightning Lanes and Advanced Dining Reservations. 

    Luanne, I hope I've been able to help you today. Have a magical vacation, and if you have any other questions, come right back for another chat!

    Happy planning!
