Activating AP at International Gateway?

[suzimar57]

After we check in at the Beach Club, can I activate my AP voucher at the International Gateway entrance?

Or is that only done at Guest Relations at the Epcot Main Entrance?

If so, how would I get there from the Beach Club? A CM escort from International Gateway? (since my AP would not yet be activated!)

And can my husband purchase his own AP in person at the International Gateway entrance?

I don't know for sure, but I would imagine you can. The entry there is a full service entry, just smaller. Considering the number of people from BC, YC and BW, I would think they would have to accomodate everything that the main gate does. There is no transportation to the main gate of EPCOT from BC, YC or BW. You have to use the International Gateway.

You can do it at the gateway . That's where we did it after checking in at BC.

Yes - you can activate it there - you will not be entering the Park to activate your voucher - GR is before security & entry. Just go straight thru the lobby of the BC & exit out the back towards Crescent lake. T/L when you get to the sidewalk & go straight on up the walk to the IG GR. It'll take you about 7 minutes to get there. It's a gorgeous walk.

There are only a couple GR windows there, so depending on the time of day, it might be a short wait.

Be sure and check the dates on the back of your AP!!

We activated our AP at the International Gateway and the expiration date was the same date we activated the thing!
