Child turning 3 on Disney Trip - Is she free?

[HoneyBee1991]

So we are trying to plan our next trip to WDW, at least get the year to go set. I know kids UNDER 3 get free entry to the parks.

My question is, if she is 2 at the start of the trip but turns 3 (has her birthday) during the trip is she still getting in for free?

If not we will just go right before her birthday but I wanted to know now so we can start planning and saving for the trip.

It is standard that whatever date the child arrives on at the first day of your trip is the age she is under, so yes, if two upon arrival, no one is punished for having their birthday while there. She is free.

A child who turns 3 in November 2023 isn't even due to be born until November 2020...that may be too much pre-planning!

Why? If they know the due date estimate now, there is nothing wrong with inquring now.

OMG Thank you! My math is soooooo wrong. She was just born in 2019 and I was like if she is turning 1 in 2020 then naturally she well be 3 in 2023. Ummm no, I'm an idiot That's not how math works, she will be 4. Well crap! That certainly changes things and now I have to start all over looking at our calendars. Big thanks for pointing out the massive error.

I don't like 2022 thu because then her birthday is within a week of Thanksgiving and I don't want to be there when it is super busy. Looks like she might be a bit older when we go.

Go during thanksgiving...I go every year and love the weather and decorations.

Be warned...once they have your child’s information, they’ll be at the ready to sell you tickets next time.
