“Magic Your Way” Tickets
What is “Magic Your Way”?
“Magic Your Way” is Disney’s new ticket
pricing program that replaces the long-running Park Hopper
Passes. Under the old Park Hopper Program, guests were only
permitted to buy multiple-day, multiple-park tickets in
increments of 4, 5, 6, and 7 days. Under the new system,
guests can mix and match different options and will have the
freedom to construct a customized ticket for their specific
needs. Magic Your Way, allows guests to buy a Base Ticket in
increments of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 10 days. Adding Park
Hopper, Magic Plus, or No Expiration options are available for
all tickets.
Base Ticket
The Base Tickets that come with the new
system are just that- basic tickets. The only thing that this
ticket allows is admittance into one park for one day. You
cannot visit multiple parks within the same day, you cannot go
to the water parks or Disney Quest, and by the way, they
expire after 14 days of first use. It is similar to the
one-day ticket that Disney offered previously. The only
change is that you can buy multiple days and can receive
discounts on additional days. The more you buy the cheaper
the days get.
Park Hopper Option
If you aren’t a one-park-a-day type of
person, you might want to consider adding this option to your
base ticket. The cost of this option is a flat rate of $50
per ticket. It is $50 if you buy a one-day ticket or if you
buy a ten-day ticket. The value of this option is the ability
to go from park to park to park within the same day. If you
show up at Magic Kingdom and it is overly crowded, you can
jump on the monorail and pop into Epcot and try your luck
there. You could go to Animal Kingdom for most of the day
(which closes early at 5:00 on most days), and then go to
Disney Studios and catch Fantasmic! in the evening with this
option.
Magic Plus Option
The Magic Plus option works just like the
“Plus” options that came with the old 5, 6, and 7-day Hopper
Plus Passes. Extra passes are credited to your ticket and
these allow admittance into the water parks, Pleasure Island,
Disney’s Wild World of Sports, and Disney Quest. This option
is also a flat rate fee of $50 ($53.25 w/tax) for all tickets per person
regardless of how many days. The addition of plus passes are
as follows:
1 and 2-day ticket= 2 plus
options
3 to 10-day tickets= 1 extra option for
every day. If you have a 4-day ticket, you will get 4
extra "Plus" options, 7-day ticket- 7 option, 8=8, etc...
No Expiration Option
Gone are the days when a ticket was good
for eternity. Under the old system, any leftover, unused days
on tickets would never expire. Under the new system, every
ticket expires 14 days after its first use. You can, however,
add the option of no expiration for a nominal fee. The cost for the No
Expiration option depends on how many days are purchased.
The
addition of the No Expiration option is as follows (w/Taxes):
2-day ticket=
$18.11 3-day
ticket= $24.50
4-day ticket=
$53.25 5-day
ticket= $74.55
6-day ticket=
$85.20
7-day ticket= $117.15
8-day ticket= $154.43
9-day ticket= $181.05
10-day ticket= $213.00
