Annual Pass questions??

[edmond]

Hi
i am new to the forum,
i will be going to disneyland paris in september, i have been twice before with my wife, but this time i will be taking my 2 children, a 1 year old and a 2-1/2 year old.
I think the annual pass will be my best option, but there are a few things i am unsure about.

1 were can i get them from? i know they cannot be bought on line as i live in the UK? and i think they can be ordered at the park or on a telephone number. if ordered on the telephone do the tickets start from the day they are purchsed, or from the first day of your holiday?

2 because both of my children will be under 3 do they need a ticket to get into the park?

3 i have seen a list of additonal benfits is there anything else i should look out for?

many thanks for your time.

Hi Edmond and welcome

We have always bought our passes on the day of arrival but I am not sure if they can be pre booked. You can buy a 1 day ticket and when you visit the Annual Passport office that is situated in Disneyland Park to purchase your passes the price of the 1 day ticket is deducted from your total.

Your kids will not need tickets if they are under three.

Hope this helps

do i need to go into the park to get the AP's?
or can i get these without having to go through the gates? ie in disney village?

On my last visit, a few weeks ago, I paid the full annual pass at the box office, got a provisional AP ticket, got through the turnstiles, and exchanged that ticket at the Annual Pass Office.

BTW, I got a 15% discount thanks to my Shareholder Card.

The box office is just at the park entrance. And yes, your picture (captured by a webcam) goes to the pass.

Hi edmond, welcome to the DIS!

When we bought our annual passes we didn't bother with a day ticket either. We just paid the full amount at the ticket booth and got given temporary passes to take to the Passport Bureau.

The passes can be ordered in advance (there was a thread yesterday about it) but as they will only issue you with temporary ones you will still need to visit the Passport Bureau so won't really save much time.

thanks for that.
i think i will leave the tickets until i arrive,
then bobs your uncle 1 years access.
