    Hi, I’m planning a family trip to WDW. We are considering staying at a resort hotel for 16 nights and purchasing 14 day tickets. Do tickets run from the day of arrival for 14 consecutive days? Or do the 14 days start when you first enter a park? Thanks!

    Hi Neil!

    Welcome to planDisney!  You've come to the right place as you begin planning your family trip to Walt Disney World Resort.  We're happy to share some of our best tips and tricks so you can make the most of your magical vacation!

    Neil, Guests visiting from the UK and Ireland have exclusive access to fantastic 14-Day Magic Tickets.  These tickets not only offer standard theme park admission, but also include several other great features such as park hopping, water parks, and Memory Maker.   When you purchase these 14-Day tickets with your vacation package they are valid for 18 days from your check-in date.  This gives you the flexibility to build in some time to enjoy the many activities outside of the parks - dining, recreation, pools, and more!

    As you're considering which hotel to choose for your vacation, you'll be happy to know that there are a number of incredible benefits that you'll enjoy when staying in the Disney Resorts Collection.  One of my favorite perks is Early Theme Park Entry.  My family is full of early risers (even on vacation!) so this extra 30 minutes before the park opens to other Guests gives us a chance to enjoy some of our favorite attractions with lower wait times.  Also, Walt Disney World Resort is offering a new benefit for 2025 - complimentary admission to a water park on your check-in day.  Whether you choose to spend your time floating on Castaway Creek at Disney's Typhoon Lagoon or racing down Summit Plummet at Disney's Blizzard Beach, it's the perfect way to start your vacation!

    Neil, I hope this information is helpful as you continue to plan your Walt Disney World Resort vacation!  If you have any other questions, please stop by to see us again here at planDisney!

    Happy Planning!
