Annual Pass Question with DDE

[babby]

I want to purchase an annual pass with the DDE on it. How should I go about doing this? I was just on Disney's web site and I didn't see where I could add the DDE to the pass. Do you have to call for this? What number (CRO or Dining? Thanks so much.

DDE is a seperate card/program from the Annual Pass. Once you have your AP voucher in hand, you can call the DDE # at (407) 566-5858.

They cannot process the card until you are an AP holder.

Just to clarify what Tinkaroo said - you need to have your voucher in hand but don't need the actual validated AP to order the DDE card.

Buy AP vouchers first as said - 407-560-7277.
Takes about 2 weeks to get them in the mail.

Make copies of the vouchers, KEEP your RECEIPT
You do not want to lose them
BRING 2 or 3 copies of the RECEIPT with you to WDW.
Keep them in the room safe. If you loose a AP tricket - you can replace
it WITH the receipt.

Then about 3 months before you go to WDW - order the DDE with your AP voucher #. It takes about 6 -8 weeks to process the DDE.
Do not believe the 4-6 weeks to process.
Call 407-566-5858
If you have a spouse or domestic partner, you can get a free second card for them. Ask when ordering the first card. You must be 21 years or older to have
the DDE card.
DDE told me the card is activated when you call and pay for it.
So if you call on April 26, 2005 - charge it, the DDE will be good till April 26, 2006 - HOWEVER - they said of you order one now, the DDE will be good till May 31, 2006.


If you do not get your DDE card(s) in the mail - bring your DDE receipt.
This will be your ONLY way to prove you have a DDE. You can not get a DDE at WDW. DDE are processed in PA.
I would make copies of the DDE receipt too.

I hope the above helps
