Just wanted to pass on a little info we discovered in case it helps anyone out:
Drove in this week and needed to pick up our APs at the ticket booth. We saw on a map that Celebrity Circle puts you very close to the front of US - I wasn't sure what sort of access the road had, but we gave it a try. It was not exactly easy to find (GPS got us pretty close, but the street is marked "hotel delivery and services" or something like that). We drove to the end and DH dropped me off and waited.
It's a very short walk up to the ticket booth. At the end of the path, there is a security guard and he checked my bag and I had to "sign in" on a log and note why I was there. Sort of strange, but I noticed that there were about 25 other people signed in and ALL of them said "ticket pick up". So obviously, Universal knows people are using the road for this purpose and there doesn't seem to be an issue with it.
The ticket line was pretty long and I did have to wait about 30 min. DH said security did come by and nicely asked him to move along and just come back in a few minutes, which he did.
Anyway, I don't know if this is useful to anyone or not, but just thought I'd share. It worked out really well for us and I was a little surprised at how easy it was.
