[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the Disney travelers, if you can't get your money back, I'd still go to Florida and maybe not do as many days in the parks (if you don't already have tickets).  Go over to the beach for a day, rent a boat, go to the playgrounds, etc.  And practice good hand washing.  And I'd be sure to take shoes off and wear flip flops in the hotel room, if you are in a hotel and be sure to take showers right away and not sit on the beds with your street clothes on.

The only thing that concerns me is the swimming pool.  I am avoiding those for sure -- might be irrational but too many germs in the pools and hot tubs.[/quote]

[b]FYI .. Disney tickets never lose value.  If they expire, you can apply the purchase price to new tickets.[/b]

Also regarding pools, chlorine will kill the virus though it's not advised if you're already sick.

DP.  Is this true?  I have a bunch of Disney tickets I was planning to use this spring, but keeping on eye on coronavirus.  They expire at the end of this year.  They were specially priced tickets I bought at a school auction -- do you think I can just give them back to Disney if they expire and they'll apply it to new tickets?[/quote]

I am 100% sure of this for tickets bought directly through Disney and maybe 95% sure of any tickets that are completely unused and valid.  Almost all tickets will have an expiration date after the first day is used (the exception are the paper tickets from the 70s, IIRC) but other than that, the face value of the ticket can be applied to new tickets.

I once was gifted tickets. DH was supposed to go to a conference and we were given tickets for when we were there. Our family ended up not tagging along to the conference. We tried to use the tickets a few months later and we were out of luck. Not all tickets can just be extended or used towards a future visit.

I'm assuming if you buy full price tickets and end up changing your date, you can apply the ticket to a future date. If you got some deal and it is expired, you can't just use it later after it is expired.

You should call Disney and ask for an authoritative answer.  Customer service is part of the Disney brand so this is something they've been consistent on.

You can't use the expired tickets.  You can use the value of the expired tickets against the purchase of current tickets so long as they are tickets you purchased from Disney.  I am less sure about tickets purchased through a reseller but still pretty confident so long as it's a reputable reseller like Cosco or Undercover Tourist.
