Buying APs at the gate?

[crim1978]

Hi all - just a quickie

Thanks to a couple fo you wonderful Dis-ers have my seven sponsers and am ready to buy all our APs on arrival Sunday lunch-ish.

We pressumably go to the ticket office at the gates and ask for seven APs, then I understand we have ot go to the Main Street City Hall to get our passes.

Do they take your money and give you a temp AP at the ticket office or just charge you for a single day that you then upgrade at City Hall?

Thanks again for all you help.

I've been asking stupid questions for nine months and can't believe the trip is finally nearly here.

They'll do one of two things in my experience - let you pay in full at the entrance (make sure to advise them of your sponsor info so you can get discount) or they'll sell you a day pass and you pay the difference at the AP Bureau.

It's not City Hall you go to - it's the AP Bureau which is between Fanstasyland and Discoveryland.

Have fun!

they can get a little confused by asking for the sponsor discount at the ticket booths. the guest services booth by disneyland hotel is helpful.
it's good to know the french words like 'parrainage'.
whatever happens it will work out. when we first went we bought day passes and then the passport office couldn't convert them as their compuers were down but we paid the rest at guest relations.

We always used this ticket office also, rather than those at the main gate
