Buying Park Tickets at the Hotel

[Mickey001]

My DH won a prepaid travel visa that can only be used for travel. I called the visa company and they said it could not be used to buy a disney package or tickets, but could be used to pay for the disney hotel. When I buy park tickets at the hotel will the tickets be addded to the hotel bill? Can I have counter service meals and character dining added to the hotel bill as well?

What strange requirements! I don't know the answer, but I'm curious to see if anyone's been in a similar situation.

I can't imagine it not allowing it to be used for a package...just seems silly on Visa's part.

You can add meals to your hotel bill by putting a credit card on account and then using your room key to charge. You can then substitute for the credit card on file with your prepaid Visa travel card by going to the desk and taking care of the bill before the automatic charges go through on your credit card.

Charges automatically go through based on resort type:
$500-- Value
$1000 -- Moderate
$1500 -- Deluxe

I believe tickets have to be paid separately and cannot be added to room account.

Congratulations on winning the prize! Even with a little workarounds, it makes for a special trip.

Thanks for the info regarding meals. It's good to know that is one major expense that will be covered.

Are you staying at a Disney hotel?

I added the difference in price of an annual pass and the DDE to my room..

Yes we are staying at Pop. Disney said I could buy the tickets there, but we unclear as to whether the cost was added to the room cost. I'll keep my fingers crossed! We leave one month from today
