What types of Magic Your Way vacation packages are there?

You will always be able to select one of two types of packages:

The Magic Your Way Package - Includes a Disney Resort stay at a Value, Moderate, Deluxe or Deluxe Villa Resort and a Magic Your Way Base Ticket that gives each member of your travel party entry to one Theme Park every ticket day. You can then add additional ticket options.

The Magic Your Way With Dining Packages - Once you've created the Magic Your Way package that best meets your needs, add the Disney Dining Plan and choose the meals you and your family want for up to 30% savings. Dining options include over 100 participating counter-service, table-service and Signature Dining Disney restaurants.

What does the Magic Your Way Base Ticket include?

With Magic Your Way Tickets, you can select how many days you want tickets for - keeping in mind that the per-day price gets lower the longer you play. The basic ticket is a Magic Your Way Base Ticket, which gives entry to one Theme Park a day every day of your ticket, for each member of your travel party.

You can select two exciting options to customize each ticket to meet the needs and preferences of your entire travel party or, when purchasing your tickets without accommodations, you can select different tickets for each member of your travel party:

Include the Park Hopper® option to your ticket to come and go through the four main theme parks on the same day as many times as you like.

Include the Park Hopper:® Plus option (formerly the Water Park Fun & More Option). It includes a certain number of FUN visits based on the length of the ticket purchased. For each FUN visit, you can choose to visit one of the following: Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park*, Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park*, Disney's Oak Trail Golf Course, Disney's Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf Course**, Disney's Winter Summerland Miniature Golf Course* and ESPN Wide World of Sports:registered: Complex***. The total number of visits varies with the length of the ticket purchased.

*Water Parks subject to seasonal or weather closures. Age restrictions may apply for access to certain facilities. **Prior to 4:00pm ***Except for activities/events that are separately priced.

Is there an expiration date on the tickets in my package?

Magic Your Way Base Tickets expire 14 days from their first use.

Are tickets transferable?

Please note that all Magic Your Way Tickets are nontransferable and must be used by the same person on any and all days. The person who uses the ticket for the very first time must use the ticket for its entirety. Any tickets that are transferred are in violation of this restriction and are invalid for admission.

Can new tickets be upgraded once they're purchased?

Yes, Magic Your Way can be upgraded before your vacation begins, or within the 14-day window you have to use the ticket after it's first used. Upgrades include extending the ticket length (i.e., adding more days) or adding the Park Hopper® Option and/or the Park Hopper® Plus Option.

Can I upgrade an existing ticket?

In general, you can upgrade to any type of ticket - provided the new ticket is of equal or greater value than the old ticket - by simply paying the difference. However, no refunds will be issued if the new ticket is of lesser value.

Is there a ticket that will allow me to visit the Water Parks?

The Park Hopper® Plus option is a great way to add more Disney fun beyond the Theme Parks. This option provides a certain number of visits based on the length of the ticket purchased. For each visit, you can choose one of the following: Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park*, Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park*, Disney's Oak Trail Golf Course, Disney's Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf Course**, Disney's Winter Summerland Miniature Golf Course* and ESPN Wide World of Sports:registered: Complex***.

*Water Parks subject to seasonal or weather closures. **Prior to 4:00pm ***Except for activities/events that are separately priced.

Is there a ticket that will allow me to visit more than one Park every day?

Yes. If you purchase the Park Hopper® Option, you can come and go through multiple Theme Parks on the same day as many times as you like.

What happens if I don't use all the days on my ticket?

Magic Your Way Base Tickets expire 14 days from their first use.

How do I redeem my Magic Your Way vacation package features?

Most Magic Your Way vacation package components are fulfilled upon check-in at your Walt Disney World® Resort Hotel. You will either receive a printed voucher or use your MagicBand to redeem meals, recreation and other package features.

Can I get my tickets and other package components if I arrive before check-in?

Yes. Walt Disney World® Resort Hotels will issue your Magic Your Way vacation package and purchased options when you arrive. If you take advantage of Disney's Magical Express service, you can enjoy complimentary ground transportation to and from the Orlando airport - and we'll take you directly to the Theme Park or recreation facility of your choice and then deliver your luggage to your room.

How does the Disney Dining Plan work?

Use your meals and snacks in any order and in any amount throughout your stay until your total is completed. For example, on the day of arrival your travel party of four could use four counter-service meals, and then on day two your party could use four table-service meals, four counter-service meals, and two snacks. You can continue using meals any way you like for the rest of your stay until the number of meals allotted are completed.

Present your MagicBand to your server prior to ordering, so your server knows to charge meals to your Disney Dining Plan. Applicable taxes are already prepaid and included, however, gratuity is not. Your meal usage will be tracked electronically to your room reservation. Each time you redeem meals or snacks from your Disney Dining Plan, your server or cashier will provide you with a receipt showing your remaining balance.

How can I get the Disney Dining Plan?

When you stay at a Disney Resort and purchase a Magic Your Way Base Package (additional options available), you will always be able to select the Magic Your Way Plus Dining Package, which allows you to add the Disney Dining Plan and choose the meals you and your family want for up to 30% savings.
