    Magic Kingdom -- Saturday May 14 This was rearranged to accommodate that my husband wanted to go to a fencing class on Monday night, and we had a private tour of Raymond James stadium in Tampa Bay on Tuesday, leaving us Sat/Sun for MK and Epcot.

    Redeeming expired tickets later on...?

    So, we've set, cancelled, and reset our dining reservations, fast passes, etc., but the tickets themselves are entirely unaltered, it's just the general "all tix prior to the date system have a first-use date of Dec 31, 2019" issue. They are not the date-based tickets. And I have no idea how...

    Redeeming expired tickets later on...?

    Here's the link; I went to the WDW website, put "expired tickets" into the search bar, and if you scroll down, this is what comes up regarding pre-Oct 1018 tickets. https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/faq/tickets/ticket-dates/ Ah, I see you posted the same link; sorry for the duplicate. Yes...

    Redeeming expired tickets later on...?

    I was looking at this, which applies to our tickets (we bought ages ago, originally planning to go Dec 2018, then bumping to May 2019, then bumped again to Dec 2019, and now we're facing this issue with the boss.....): Additional Information on Tickets Purchased Before October 16, 2018 The...

    Redeeming expired tickets later on...?

    According to WDW website, this is completely possible, allowed, etc.; if your ticket expires before you can use it, you are able to redeem the value of what you paid for that ticket *towards the purchase of a new ticket* so long as the new ticket is more expensive than the one you're redeeming...

    Epcot dining - dinner planning help

    Thanks, all! I guess I need to read some reviews of the food in Epcot and see if it's really worth it to us. Partly we're looking for the experience, but partly for good food.....from the sounds of it, maybe we're better off looking at what else is available and going with a different plan. Our...

    Epcot dining - dinner planning help

    This is helpful info, thank you. We were originally thinking skip DHS for the reasons you mentioned. And we thought Park Hopper vs. a 4th day ticket (which we could do) because it's the cheaper of the 2 choices. And I have yet to talk any of them into actually riding the Toy Story rides (sigh)...

    Epcot dining - dinner planning help

    Thanks; so, y'all think mostly that the food at QS is good in Epcot? We were thinking TS since it's our dinner, and likely better experience over all, and we're willing to splurge some just hadn't realized most are $30/plate(-ish) + drinks. If they're worth it.....we're happy to splurge. We want...

    Epcot dining - dinner planning help

    I've found all the prices except for those that are apparently a place where you pay a set fee for choices. (a few don't have the price listed next to the entrees and apps, for ex, but do on the drinks...). The Norway place, for ex, does not show prices on the menu, and neither did.....maybe...

    Epcot dining - dinner planning help

    So, forgive me if this is the wrong forum for this. We're newbies (I've been, no one else in the family has been, and I was 13 when I went....am considerably older now ;) ) and trying to maximize our limited time. We have 3-day single park per day tickets at the moment; thinking of upgrading...

    Ticket question - multi day use

    We're considering it; I know the train would be fun, but.....ooph the price. Luckily he's old enough (18) to ride solo, worst case scenario, we do that for him but.....still steep. Bigger draw for us, at the moment, is that P2P would let us spend half day in each on our extra day, if we...

    Ticket question - multi day use

    Thanks; I have one son who's pushing for it, but we're debating whether or not it's worth the $60 extra, per person (x5 of us) to do so....$300 for a train ride, as cool as I've heard it is, is pretty steep. We shall see.....

    Ticket question - multi day use

    Ticket question - multi day use

    We're newbies to all things theme park, so please be kind if this is a "Duh, no..." sort of question. We're going to Orlando in May, will have 6 days to spend in parks, planning to do 3 of the 4 Disney parks and the 2 main Universal parks. BUT - we'll be getting Universal's Buy 2, Get 3 Days...

    ***Official Candlelight Processional Dining Package Watch - 2018***

    Would this work in reverse? Book the others (searching for the right time) in partner's name, and then cancel the one in my name once we find the one with the right CP time? (we have multiple adults in the party, as our oldest 2 kids will be "adults" by the time we go) Or since I already put...
