We are going this June for a family trip. My daughter 18 yrs, is hoping to go back with friends for another trip so we purchased an annual pass for her and 10 day passes for the rest of us. My question comes with making the reservation when the rates do come out for June. Do we have to make them in her name, since she will have the actual annual pass? I am assuming that we will.

Second question is that my husband and son will actually get there one day before my daughter and I because of timing issues in leaving. Will they be able to check in if the room is in my daughter's name and she won't be there until the next morning at 6 am? He can take her pass with him to prove the annual pass but at that point it will still be a voucher with no one's name on it as we won't activate it until we actually arrive the next day. So maybe I should make the reservation in his name since it won't be activated yet.

Or does the name really matter at all since we all have the same last names and will be staying together just not arriving together at the beginning?

Thanks for any advice you have.

Boy you really like to ask uncomplicated questions. :upsidedow

The problem is we can all give our opinions of what they might do; when actually until you arrive who knows what they will do as all CMs do not follow the same policies.

Technically the person that has the AP has to book the room and be there to check in.

Where are you staying? Not sure in this case if some allowance might be made.

I agree if you are getting a voucher and since it is an adult voucher then make the reservation in your husband's name and give him the voucher. The only problem that might arise with that is some CMs as you check in with a voucher will tell you that until they see the activated AP you will be charged rack rate, you might warn your husband of that.
 
THANKS!

I Figured that it would probably just come down to the person checking you in at the time. Was just hoping that maybe someone had experience with this. We hope to stay at Port Orleans French Quarter the first week and Pop Century the second week. Right now, just hoping that the AP will give us a discount.
