Buying an annual pass ON a blockout day?

[ben1993]

Could I purchase my fantasy pass on a blockout day? No biggie if not as I arrive quite late anyway but I'd like to get my pass and watch Dreams on the first night.

Thanks

Can you use a fantasy pass on a blackout/blockout day? I thought you could only use a dreams pass.

There's 2 occasions were you can use a Fantasy on a blackout day

- On the day you purchase it even if it's a blackout it's good for entrance

- If you are staying in an onsite hotel. You show it at the turnstiles along with the Easy pass that you get given at the hotel.

Otherwise no, the only AP that garantees 365 day entrance is the Dream

Thanks CC- that explains it really well. We will be staying off site so that is why we can't buy a fantasy pass and also our first day is not the blockout day.
I will eventually get my tickets sorted- been researching for weeks

Even though you are staying off site you can get a Fantasy AP, I've got one

When are you going and I could see if there are any offers around for you ?

If you're staying offsite, a Fantasy pass is the best ticket to get for DLP, because currently it gives you access to Extra Magic Hours .

We are going on Wed 3rd April until Sunday 7th April. We might not make it to the park on the Wed.

Pay attention if you get late: if you purchase the AP and enter with the gates with the temporary ticket, you should then go to the AP office and get the final plastic card the same day. If you arrive late, the AP office could be closed and you have used the temporary ticket. Next morning you can have problems at the gate.
When I did my AP last May late in the evening, I asked when purchasing the passport at guest relations (ticket boots where closed) if I could enter immediately to see Dreams and they called to check. It ended that I could, but next day I had to go to guest relations again so they let me enter in the park (they wrote my name somewhere). Other friends who purchased the annual pass and entered the park without asking at Guest Relations, had problems the day after. They had to call a managed at the entrance and they ended loosing more than half an hour that morning.
