AP for 9/10 yr old?

[stacy6552]

Hey gang.

Were trying to decide about the tix for our next trip, which falls around our son's 10th birthday. CM's tell me that his child's pass is good for the year as long as its activated while hes 9. By the time it expires he will be nearly 11.

Has anyone had gate issues for their child's entrance with a kids pass? Will it more of a hassle than its worth? Should we just buy a hopper pass, or will that be an even bigger problem? I dont want to have to tote his Birth Cert around WDW.

If the child is 9 at the time of purchase, you can get a child's AP.

What happens if I buy a child's AP for my 9 year old and then he/she turns 10 before the AP expires?

Disney will exchange the child's AP for an adult one at no extra charge. This follows the same policy they use for this situation in any ticket media.

phamton is correct. We purchased child AP's for our 9 year old dds who will be 10 the day we arrive in March. I'll exchange them, and the PHP's we have, for adult tickets while we're there.
