Title: Am I allowed to sell my Park tickets?
Post by: pj123 on October 20, 2013, 08:51:59 PM
Just wanting to know if I can sell my park tickets?, we are going to DLP this week and already have annual pass's so we do not need the 6 tickets that we will get when we check into to our hotel.
Is it ok to sell them at the gates?
just want to raise a few £££s for BBWWS?

I don't think it's safe to sell them at the gates.  I wouldn't do it if it were me, what if someone from Disney catches you?

We've been asked for tickets by normally French nationals who I assume live close to the park but as we've always had APD tickets, we've never had any to sell, they normally hang around the area near to the train station/Disney Village/car park area

They don't get them until they check into the hotel :(

I tried it once and would'nt try again! People were very suspicious, as I expect I would be, if you are thick skinned and don't mind the risk of being caught then try it! To be honest it just made me feel uncomfortable!

When I went last year I was stopped by a family and felt very intimidated by them. They were trying to get me to buy tickets for them. They then moved on to other families harassing them. I went and reported them to security as they were acting strangely and I felt like they would try to steal my handbag. It was an awful experience in an otherwise wonderful holiday. The family were then moved on by security.

Personally I wouldn't do it. If as was mentioned above you had them before you left then fair enough I'd try and sell them on ebay but I wouldn't hang around the parks or train station trying to sell them. Word of warning: if you're caught you won't be allowed into the parks. Security escorted the family off property!

Thanks for the advice, not sure what to do with them, I'd even give them away rather than not use them! Seems a total waste of tickets, mind you our AP doesn't allow entry on the Saturday, we were going to visit Paris but cannot get tickets for the Eiffel Tower so not sure whether to go or not.

Does anyone know how long the tickets they allocate you last once you receive them from the hotel?

I was just going to see if there was anyone with UK accent and try and sell them to them, wasn't really going to hang around to long.

Btw if anyone needs sponsored for AP were there from 23rd October for 5 days, or if your struggling for money or staying off site you can have my tickets, just drop me a pm, seems daft to waste them

If you can't sell them you can always use them to get extra fast pass tickets at the same time as you get your fast passes with your AP's, so if you did want to ride say TOT twice in a row without queueing, just get 2 lots of fast passes :P

The tickets have 7 day validity from your day of arrival

Instead of the Eiffel Tower go to Tour Montparnasse, you get the same views and the Eiffel Tower with none of the crowds or queues

Was going to suggest the Tour Montparnasse too, went there last year and the views are stunning and you also get great views of the Eiffel Tower!

I have another suggestion


Sell them on EBAY as others have suggested BUT have them collection only.


You only get them when you check into your hotel, so explain all this on the EBAY listing. You can send a scan of the ticket confirmation to the bidder as proof that it is not a scam. You then arrange to meet the buyer either at your hotel or somewhere in Disney Village or at the train station to hand over the tickets.

Probably to late now, I still have the ticket, its valid until the 30th October for 5 days, tried to swap it for 3 one day tickets but Disney said no.
