AT - disney booking with hotel tickets?

Leggibone · 25 Sep 21, 07:41 PM

We’ve booked our stay for feb with AT, but it’s our second week, since the booking is with Attraction tickets, will we be able to use our 14day Disney tix in the first week?

If they were booked as a package (e.g. to get the dining offer) then no, tickets aren't valid until your check-in day.

If you booked a room only and separate tickets, then they're not linked and you can use the tickets whenever you'd like.

This is true no matter who you book with, including directly with Disney.

Ahh ≈≈≈≈≈≈, okay thanks for the info!
We booked it all together exactly for the dining offer, I did recall seeing that on the Disney site once, but I didn’t know if it was the same! Will have to book a breakfast or something for the first morning instead!

If your other bookings are flexible and you want to use the tickets for the full two weeks, it may be worth looking at flipping your stays to do Disney first. That's what most people here who don't spend the full time onsite do.

Unfortunately nope, we’re tied to half term and the week before (couldn’t have the Week after) and the availability for the week before in terms of hotels wasn’t great (read only way more expensive rooms available) might just have to do a character breakfast the first morning or something, we’re doing discovery cove, seaworld and universal, so I cant see us having an issue filling the first week without Disney, just slightly annoying the atd website doesn’t highlight it, it only dawned on me after I booked it that might cause an issue

It does highlight it - when you add tickets, there is a line immediately below the ticket type that says "tickets activated at check-in". Although maybe that isn't very clear to someone less familiar with how Disney packages work.
