    Can I transfer an unused ticket to my daughter? I purchased the ticket a few months back, but now have a pass.

    Hey there Regina,

    Welcome to planDisney and thanks for your question! It sounds like you might have recently purchased a Magic Key Pass - congratulations! You've got a year of fun visits to the Happiest Place on Earth ahead of you.

    As for your unused ticket, if it is a standard theme park ticket that is wholly unused then your daughter would be able to use it. Even though we add names to tickets when we purchase them through the Disneyland Resort website, the ticket is not actually locked in to use by an individual until it is scanned at an entry gate for the first time. Upon first entry, a Cast Member will take a picture of the Guest that will then be attributed to their ticket and it is then that the ticket must be used by that same individual for its duration.

    One caveat I want to add is that if your unused ticket was purchased as part of a special offer, it may have additional terms that determine how it can be used. For example, the Southern California Resident Ticket Offer can only be used by California residents within ZIP codes 90000-96199, and proof of eligible residency, including valid government-issued photo ID, is required for both purchase and admission. Therefore, make sure to double check the details of your ticket to ensure there aren't any additional limitations or stipulations for its use. 

    Additionally, theme park reservations are required to enter one of the parks of the Disneyland Resort along with a valid ticket. My preferred method of managing these reservations is through the My Plans hub on the Disneyland Resort website.

    Thanks again for your question, Regina! I hope you have a wonderful time visiting the Disneyland Resort. Make sure to stop by and see us if you have any other questions we can help answer.

    Have a Magical Day,
    Greg
