Changing resorts 2.5 weeks before trip

[MainMom]

I currently have a reservation at Pop with the summer package. However, I am wanting to change that due to the recent reports of the BTG at Pop. I just don't want to deal with it.

It looks like the best option for my dates without breaking the bank is POR. I should be able to call and just have my resort changed, paid charges applied and just pay the difference, correct? I shouldn't lose my FP's since I am keeping the package? Also, I have ME scheduled and have already received luggage tags and paperwork. Will I need to call and get new tags sent?

Thank you.

I just changed yesterday for my stay starting tomorrow and encountered no problems. In fact, I did it all online. My fastpasses and dining reservations are all showing just as before. As far as ME goes, I am not sure.

I don't think this really matters, but is it a package or room only reservation?

Yes, you can change regardless of whether it's a package or room-only, and your FPs & ADRs would be unaffected. You should call Magical Express (not the main line) and ask if they can get new yellow tags sent in time.

We stayed at POR last time and really enjoyed it. I would call and talk to someone about changing over your ME reservations. I have seen many other comment that the barcode on your current tags will reflect the resort change though.

Did you chat with someone or was there a way to modify the reservation yourself?

Thank You both! I will make sure to call.

I just modified it myself. I was actually on hold with reservations, but started just messing around with it on my own and was able to first modify the resort, then change from summer rate to passholder rate.
