Are tickets to Disney trasferable?

Question

I am thinking of purchasing a 10 day Park hopper ticket to Disney World in Orlando. I would be going the first 5 days, could I let someone else use it the last 5 days? I know that the Florida resident tickets arn't transferable, but what about just regular tickets purchased at the ticket office's at the park?

Answer 1

Officially, no. When you use your ticket for the first time, you put your fingers into this slot so your bone structure is linked to your ticket to prevent ticket sharing. They also may print your name on the ticket or make you sign it. Having done that, they can ask for ID to confirm its your ticket.

If you're willing to risk it, it can be done. When my family heads out to florida we don't keep track of who uses which ticket. On a few occasions I used my brother's ticket and when I didn't pass the finger scan, they waved me through. Of course if they would have asked me about it I would just tell them there was a mix up in our folder.  

Answer 2

It's not bone structure but fingerprints.  You can get in if your fingerprints match another ticket on the same trip record.

Answer 3

The tickets say they are non-transferable, and the finger scan will cause that ticket to work only for you.  You also have to sign the back.  When the 2nd person tries to use it, it won't work for them.  The cast members know people try to do this, and it's a gamble what is going to happen next.  They could ask for a name,  (better be the same gender) an ID, or make them go to guest services for a reissue, assuming it has demagnetized.  At guest services they have to produce ID that matches that signature on the back which they won't be able to do, and the ticket will be useless for them.  Now, it is possible they can slip by and cheat the system, but, again, cast members know people try to do this, so they also watch for it.  I don't think it's a good plan, because it's absolutely certain the ticket will be rejected by the machine and questioned.  

We've tried switching tickets to see if we can get through on each other's, and it doesn't work.  A cast member told us that our fingerscans were all grouped and we could do that, but they were wrong.  

It's not fingerprint but biometric fingerscan - "Disney tickets are nontransferable. That means they can be used only by the original purchaser. Disney uses a biometric finger scan system (which takes a partial fingerprint) that prevents you from selling or sharing a ticket. Only one person can use each ticket."  www.mousesavers.com

Answer 4

No...........

Answer 5

No the tickets are not transferable. ALL tickets are matched by finger scan and only you have your prints.
