Welcome to planDisney, Randee.
Thanks for choosing to be our Guest. You've asked a great question! Our plans sometimes change unexpectedly and this can mean that our Walt Disney World trip is affected. However, you'll be glad to know that there is a simple solution to your problem.
Randee, if you have unused theme park tickets, then you'll be pleased to know that you can reassign them to another person. However, you'll need to add them to your
Family & Friends list.
To link someone to your Family & Friends list, simply open your
My Disney Experience Mobile App and tap on the three bars in the bottom right-hand corner. Scroll down and tap on "My Profile." Tap on "My Family & Friends List," then "Add a Guest," and then “Scan Their Linking Code.” It'll then give you instructions for how your friends/family can access their linking code. Once you scan their code they'll be added to your Friends & Family list.
Once that happens, you can reassign your ticket(s) to them. Here's how you do it:
- Sign in to your
My Disney Experience account via your browser.
- Visit the "My Reservations" section.
- Locate the ticket you wish to reassign.
- Select the “Reassign Ticket” link to the right of the ticket.
You can reassign the ticket until its first usage. However, once someone uses a ticket, it cannot be reassigned.
I hope that's helpful, Randee. When your trip arrives, make sure you experience
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. I was talking to some friends yesterday and I told them that this might just be my new favorite attraction at Walt Disney World. Right now there are two ways to experience this groovy ride:
1) Purchase an
Individual Lightning Lane. You can do this from 7:00 AM if you're staying at a Disney Resort. If you're staying off property, you can do this when EPCOT opens.
2) Join the
virtual queue, which opens at 7:00 AM and 1:00 PM (and 6:00 PM on select dates during extended evening theme park hours. This is a benefit for registered Guests staying at a Disney Deluxe Resort, Disney Deluxe Villa Resort, or other select hotels). It's time to save the galaxy!
Have a great trip, Randee!
