Disney MYW Tickets: Choices, Choices, Choices

Disney offers an array of admission ticket choices. Tickets can include multiple number of days (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 10 days), Park Hopping options, admission to additional minor attractions, and come with or without expiration dates. Each of these options will increase the cost of the ticket. While sticking with a base Magic Your Way ticket can be a great way to save, depending on what you would like to do on your vacation, it might no always be the most economical or convenient choice. Read on to find out how to purchase Walt Disney World tickets that work the best for your vacation.

To see the gate price for MYW Base Tickets, 1 through 10 days, visit our Ticket Calculator page.

Add-on Options

Water Park Fun & More Option: Park visitors who have children may want to visit the Disney water parks several times in one vacation. With a water park admission price of $41.54 per child (w/tax), buying a Water Park Fun & More Option option can save such a family money. For $52 ($55.38 including tax), guests can add the Water Park Fun & More option. This allows two to ten visits (depending on the number of days on the base ticket) to your choice of Disney’s Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon, DisneyQuest, Wide World of Sports Complex and a round of golf at Oak Trail. One and two day MYW tickets will each have two plus options, all other tickets will have one option for each additional day. For example a 3-day ticket has 3 options and an 7-day ticket has 7 options. Since the Water Park Fun & More option costs a flat rate, the longer the length of the ticket, the more value you get for your money. Best of all, you have 14 days from the first use of your MYW ticket to use them, irregardless of the length of stay of your ticket, and they don't have to be used the same day you use a park admission. The cost of individual options if purchased separately by the day are below:

  • Water Park: $41.54 (child, 3-9 w/tax) / $47.93 (adult w/tax)
  • DisneyQuest: $36.21 (child, 3-9 w/tax) / $42.60 (adult w/tax)
  • Disney's Wide World of Sports Complex: $10.65 (child, 3-9 w/tax) / $13.58 (adult w/tax)
  • Oak Trail Golf (varies by time & season): $10 - $19 (junior) / $15 - $38 (adult)

Park Hopper: For another $52 ($55.38 including tax) park hopping can be added to the MYW ticket, allowing guests to visit several Walt Disney World theme parks each day. The Park Hopper option and Water Park Fun & More option can both be added for a flat price of $104 ($110.76 including tax). Those with a base MYW ticket can not use multiple days to enter multiple parks on the same day. Once the tickets information is stored in Disney's system passing through the turnstile, that ticket will not allow admittance at another park on the same day unless the ticket includes the Park Hopper option.

There are many reason why purchasing the Park Hopper option would be desirable. First, with Disney making Free Dining available for at least a few months each year, dining choices are a consideration for park goers like never before. One park per day can make dining options very limited, for those on Disney's Dining Plan (free or purchased) and looking of at least one table service restaurant to try each day. While Epcot's World Showcase has a host of dining options, many which should be tried, a family might not want to spend every day at that park just to eat there. Purchasing the Park Hopper option adds the flexibility to choose any park restaurant on any given day without having to spend the entire day in that particular park. Secondly, park hopping can extend the hours of fun you actually get to spend in the parks. A park like Animal Kingdom that typically closes by 5 pm each day, could leave a family wishing to go to Disney's Hollywood Studios in the evening to see Fantasmic!, which only plays on certain nights of the week. There are many other instances where the Park Hopper option could add flexibility and extra value to a family's vacation, and it's something to consider when planing your vacation and purchasing tickets.

NO Expiration: MYW tickets expire 14 days from first use--day one starting the count. Disney also offers a "NO Expiration" option that can be added to the tickets for an increased cost. The No Expiration option can be added to a ticket even after it is purchased but must be done before the ticket expires. The cost of the upgrade will vary and depend upon the length-of-days of the ticket. The cost must be paid for the entire length of stay of the original ticket and not just the remaining unused days. Thus whether you purchase the "No Expiration" option before you leave home or after you've spent several days in the park, it won't make any difference in the price of the ticket. Unused days can be used at any future date and offer a built-in safeguard against Disney inflation. Just be sure to keep track of unused days as Disney can not check these for you. See below for prices and more info on upgrading to "NO Expiration" tickets.

While an Annual Pass is probably the best option for those who will be visiting Disney for 11 days or longer or do repeat visits within the same year, purchasing a lengthy MYW ticket with the "NO Expiration" option is the way to go for those who know they want to return to Walt Disney World but don't think it will be in the same year. For information on how to purchase MYW tickets and save money on future Walt Disney World trips, click here.

Additional Days: The cost of an admission ticket per-day decreases with each additional day that is added. While a one-day Adult base ticket will cost $79 (plus tax), a six-day Adult base ticket runs just $38.50 per day (plus tax). Guests can save over 50% of the cost of single day admission per day by purchasing tickets of six days or longer in length, either online directly through Disney or through a Disney specialized travel agency. Visit our Magic Your Way Ticket Calculator page for a complete list of options, prices, and comparisons. Children under the age of three are admitted to Disney theme parks for free.

Discounts & Purchasing in Advance: Whichever ticket options are chosen, make sure to buy tickets in advance as part of a package or individually. The one feature that never changes concerning Disney admission tickets is that the price increases yearly. We suggest buying tickets as soon as you make your room reservations for several reasons. Waiting to buy tickets at the gate can sometimes end up being more expense if prices increase and should be avoided if possible. Additionally, there is a great savings option for purchasing MYW tickets in advance at discounted prices that you can't get when buying tickets at the gate or through Disney online (continue reading to learn how or click the "discounted prices" link).

Upgrading Tickets

If you change your mind at the last minute and want to upgrade your existing ticket(s) while at the park, the entire value of the partially used ticket can be applied to a ticket upgrade. Partially used tickets must be upgraded before they expire or by 13 days after the first day of use. This holds true even if you've purchased the "NO Expiration" option. Simply take your ticket to any park Guest Service window to complete the transaction. The current gate price of the existing ticket will be applied to the new ticket. For example, if you originally purchased a 7-day MYW ticket with the "Water Park Fun & More Option" and then found that spending 2 days at water parks and a day at Disney Quest caused you to have 3 days left on your ticket that won't be used during your trip, you might want to upgrade to the "No Expiration" option so that you can use the remaining 3 days on another trip. You will be charged the difference between a 7-day MYW ticket with the "No Expiration" option and a 7-day MYW ticket without it, even though 4 days of the original ticket were already used. The cost of upgrading your existing 7-day ticket will be $122.47 and you won't lose your remaining "Water Park Fun & More" options. If you were to buy a 3-day MYW ticket, even just a basic one, you would pay $233.24 (including tax) for an adult ticket (last year this ticket was $225.78). So, upgrading to the "No Expiration" option would save money on your future trip, and the cost of that 3-day base ticket will most likely go up over the course of a few years.

If you've purchased discounted tickets, you could end up getting credit for more than you've actually paid if you use your ticket for at least one day before upgrading. When upgrading "unused" tickets, only the original purchase price will be applied; this can be found on the front of the ticket. Once the ticket is used, the current gate price is always applied, even if the ticket was bought at a discounted price. It's always best to upgrade after using your discounted multi-day ticket for at least one day.

MYW tickets can be upgraded to add extra days (up to a total of ten), park hopping ($55.38 including tax), Water Park Fun & More option ($55.38 including tax), NO Expiration option, or any combination of these options. Our Ticket Calculator can show the cost off adding days and options to your existing ticket. First, add the ticket you want to upgrade to to the second comparison chart (using the "Add to Compare" button) and then add the ticket you currently have. The difference in price is what you will pay. For your convenience, the quick glance chart below shows the price of adding the NO Expiration option to existing tickets of varying lengths.

Cost of Upgrading to No Expiration MYW Tickets (including tax)

  • 2-Day Ticket: $19.17 / $19.17 Florida Residents
  • 3-Day Ticket: $25.56 / $24.50 Florida Residents
  • 4-Day Ticket: $55.38 / $36.21 Florida Residents
  • 5-Day Ticket: $77.75 / $47.93 Florida Residents
  • 6-Day Ticket: $89.46 / $74.55 Florida Residents
  • 7-Day Ticket: $122.47 / $111.83 Florida Residents
  • 8-Day Ticket: $161.88 / $154.43 Florida Residents
  • 9-Day Ticket: $189.57 / $181.05 Florida Residents
  • 10-Day Ticket: $222.59 / $213.00 Florida Residents

MYW tickets can also be upgraded to a regular annual pass or a premium annual pass. The only exception is for MYW tickets that include the Water Park Fun & More option. These tickets must be upgraded to a premium annual pass that includes water park admissions.

TheMouseForLess Tip: Unused day(s) on any Walt Disney World "unexpired" multi-day ticket can be used for admission to Disneyland or Disney's California Adventure parks. Present your WDW Ticket at the gate and it will be exchanged for a single day Disney park admission ticket. If you have multiple days left on your WDW ticket, you must repeat the process each day. Only one day will be subtracted from your WDW ticket at a time and the Disneyland ticket must be used on the same day. Disneyland tickets can not be used as admission to Walt Disney World parks. ~ Linda S.

TheMouseForLess Tip: If you'll be at Disney for a lengthy stay, say 7 days or more, you don't have to buy a park ticket for each day of your stay. If you add the Water Park Fun & More Option, you can use it for several days and not go to the parks at all. This worked out great for us and saved us money. We made a day out of Downtown Disney with shopping, dinner and Disney Quest and another day at Blizzard Beach and then doing some things later in the day at our resort. The cost of adding the Water Park Fun & More Option was less then paying for Disney Quest and Blizzard Beach combined or buying two extra days on our park tickets. ~ Brandi.

TheMouseForLess Tip: Take a photo of the back of any Walt Disney World tickets you buy from a third party or make a photo copy and keep it in a safe place during your vacation. It will be the only way to get tickets replaced that may get lost on your trip. For tickets purchased at Walt Disney World, keep ticket receipts in a safe place. This can also help get lost tickets replace. ~ Linda S.

TheMouseForLess Tip: Disney doesn't require kids who have a birthday during a trip to change tickets. They would continue to use their Child ticket for the duration of their stay. Similarly, it's not widely known, but if you have a non-expiring Child ticket that your child used part of, they can trade it in for an Adult ticket if they do not use the rest of it until after they are too old for a Child ticket. This is not possible if the Child ticket hasn't been used - then you'd have to pay to upgrade it to an Adult ticket. ~ Pam S.

TheMouseForLess Tip: If you are on the Disney Dining Plan, I think that park hoppers are an absolute must. The reason being that you can't always get your reservations in the park of your choice on the day of your choice. Some parks are very crowded on certain days and if your "Table Service" reservation happens to be on one of those days, you won't be stuck there for an entire day when you could be in a much less crowded park. That being said, we were not on DDP this year and didn't purchase park hoppers. PH is something you can add on during your stay without any penalty in price. It is a flat amount and is the same whether you pre-purchase or not. So if for some reason you should find that you need it, you can add it at the parks. ~ Carol in Oregon

How to Get Discounted Tickets For Walt Disney World

The first thing you should know is that Walt Disney World tickets are non-transferable. Furthermore, in Florida, it's illegal to sell partly-used multi-day attraction tickets. Never buy partially used tickets from any source. You just don't know what you are getting. It's also a good practice to avoid tickets sold on eBay, Craigslist or from any of the various used-ticket brokers operating in the Orlando and Kissimmee area. Use ticket vendors recommended on long-standing Disney information sites and communities when purchasing any attraction tickets and avoid all others. Most Disney communities have a long history with the reliable vendors and you will see those vendors mentioned often on forums, boards, and email lists.

 

 

Ticket Brokers and Vendors

Beyond buying only the ticket options needed, discounted Walt Disney World admission tickets are offered by a number of ticket brokers and vendors. Ticket brokers buy their passes in bulk from Disney and then pass the savings on. In many cases ticket broker prices are better than ticket prices bought directly through Disney online or at the Gate. When shopping for prices, just be sure to compare prices equivocally across the board. Check whether tax and/or shipping are included in the price before assuming one price is better than another. Disney and many other vendors don't include them in the prices shown online. Most ticket vendors carry tickets for all of Orlando's popular attractions.

Some of the best discounts on Walt Disney World tickets are available through Undercover Tourist. Undercover Tourist tickets include tax in the prices shown and the company offers free shipping to the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and a few other locations abroad. From all of the raves we've heard on TheMouseForLess Group, this is a very reliable company.

Timeshare Tours

A method for getting free single-day tickets is to tour Orlando timeshares. This is not a method we are fond of, but some people do find this a worthwhile method of getting one-day attraction tickets. If time is flexible and one does not mind the high-pressure sales pitch, those interested can receive free Walt Disney World tickets. Take a drive along Rte. 192 in Kissimmee. There are lots of signs for "free" or "discounted" tickets. Take only the tours offering Free admission (including tax). There should be no hidden fees. Ticket shoppers may be asked to pay a deposit (about $25), which will be refunded after the tour. Other vendors that work with Timeshare Resorts are 7-Elevens, and some Howard Johnson motels (check the lobby). Finally, if you do take a timeshare tour, leave your charge card and checkbook in your room and do not pay anyone cash for tickets or deposits.
