It would eventually expire in a year or so but the value remains. Check the Ticket Sticky for known expiration dates.
Thanks so much

FP booking is based on check-in day at the resort.
The booking window opens based on the resort stay.Purchasing the tickets starting on our first park day are $40 cheaper in total. Has anyone purchased tickets that way and been able to book FPs on their arrival day even though it's not a valid ticket day and they didn't have a package.

Booking is only allowed for valid ticket days that fall within that open window.
The PP to whom I was replying is staying onsite.Booking opens for non-resort staying guests 30 days prior to the start date of their ticket.
Yes, you can book FOs 60 days before arrival datejust to make sure I understand my FP booking window...
~arriving and staying on property on May 28 but not going to a park until 29 due to flight arrival time;
~8-day ticket price is same for our entire stay and days before, therefore no price advantage either way.
My booking window starts 60 days prior to check-in on May 28 even if our park ticket date starts on the 29th, correct?
Any advantage to starting the park pass date earlier?

Correct - 60 days prior to check-in you can book for any valid ticketed days.In other words, if I purchase tickets with a start date of, say, March 20, but our resort stay begins on March 19, my FP window opens 60 days out from March 20, not March 19, correct?
AMENDED to say I think I got that backwards.
Actually it would be 60 days out from March 19, right?
Yes but you would have to pay any price difference.So just to be clear ...if I purchase tickets now for my trip and something happens and I can’t go, I can still exchange those tickets for new ones even if it’s a year later?
Thank youYes but you would have to pay any price difference.

When purchasing the tickets you should already link them to your account. They would be automatically on your account if you purchased directly from Disney online. If you have then an unused ticket you would probably be best off calling Disney to make sure that amount get applied to the next ticket purchase.Awesome! How do you go about paying the difference, if needed? Should you link the ticket to your My Disney Experience account?
TIA
That’s a good question. I’m not sure if that will work because it is linked to the package. The flex option would definitely be needed if this does work. Your best bet is probably calling ahead of time and/or when you go down make sure at guest services that your park entry is still your AP and not the package ticket since you’ll have two on your account.I just read through all 19 pages of this thread and haven't seen my question asked, so here goes. I have an AP that currently expires the end of this February. I don't have another trip planned until May, so I am going to let my AP expire. I would like to purchase a new AP in May because I have several later trips planned. BUT I have a free dining package for September. Is there any way that I can save the package ticket and use it when I renew the AP next May? Would adding the flex option allow me to do that? Thanks!
