At which park did you redeem GAD?

We are on our way to Disney soon. At which park did you redeem GAD? How easy/ hard was it? We will be upgrading to 6 day tickets. Any advice?

whichever park you want to go for that day, that's the one. Its basically a 1-day 1-park ticket. Of course you can upgrade it to multiple days or add a park hopper to it, but the base voucher is a 1-day 1-park ticket.

so if you plan on using it as such, the park you want to visit is the one you redeem.

We redeemed GAD at:
DHS for 1 day ticket for DD8 and upgraded to park hopper 8 day. No issues was easy but we were about 5 deep in line in the morning (on Sat) and it took about 20 minutes.

MK for GAD FP on Monday, easy took about 5 minutes, no issues. got FP cards for 4. We used them for FP for Space Mtn, Splash, and Big Thunder, then the Daisy's for 3 rides on Buzz, worked out great as line was 20-25 min each time.

DHS for GAD FP on Friday (5/28) went about 10 am, only one person in line in front of us took about 5-10 minutes (guest services rep was new).Used 3 at TSM, 2 at Star Tours and gave away the third Star Tours once was SWW so FP was being used there and was usually about 2-3 hours away, line was running 20-50 minutes so good use of Daisy FP for Star Tours. Was well worth the time and investment in GAD opportunitye for the TSM FP's alone, they were out by the time we got there at 1015 that morning.

Looks like we will be redeeming ours at DHS - how far ahead of park opening should we get in line?

We will be doing ours at AK...and then upgrading to 6 day park hopper pass. Do you do this at the regular ticket window or is there a special one?

We redeemed GAD at the International Gateway entrance to EPCOT and upgraded immediately to APs. We arrived at about 8:30am (1/2 hour before park opening) and there was no line - not a single person in line. But that was a Wednesday in March, so it may be different over the summer.

Anyway, it was so quick and easy. The CM redeemed our four GAD vouchers and immediately upgraded them to APs, issued the additional AP we purchased for our pre-schooler (too young to get GAD credit) and issued the TIW card we purchased.

We just did ours on June 16th at the TTC. We got there about 815 for a 9 am opening. We were able to redeem and upgrade at the Will Call window. Then we jumped on the boat and made it to the MK right at opening.
