Are unused Disney tickets transferable?

Yes. If the ticket has not yet been used, you can reassign a ticket to another person on your Family & Friends list. To do so, visit the My Reservations section of My Disney Experience, locate the ticket you wish to reassign and select the “Reassign Ticket” link to the right of the ticket.



Disney's ticket transfer policy in 2026 remains strict: wholly unused tickets are transferable, but once a ticket is used even once, it becomes non-transferable. If you have purchased a multi-day ticket and have not yet entered a park, you can reassign that ticket to another person through the "Family & Friends" list in your My Disney Experience (or Disneyland) account. This is often done via the "My Reservations" section or the mobile app. However, once a ticket has been scanned at a park entrance, it is biometrically linked to that specific guest (typically through a finger scan or photo) and cannot be given to anyone else to use for the remaining days. This policy applies to standard theme park tickets, Annual Passes, and special event tickets. If you find you cannot use your ticket, Disney often allows you to apply the value of an unused, expired ticket toward the purchase of a new ticket of equal or greater value, ensuring your investment isn't completely lost even if your travel plans change.
