Hi, DS (21) and I will be joining DH for a four night / three day Orlando stay at Royal Pacifica Nov. 12 - 16, as DH is attending a four day conference there. I heard that we can get an early entry perk and FOL pass as a hotel guest perk at the parks. Do note that it's a been there, done that, bought the T-shirt excursion for us, as we've been before, seen all the Harry Potter stuff, etc. but the parks are nice and are kind of hard to pass up for one day at least since we are right there.
Anyway, my actual question is how do those perks work and can my nephew who is 22 and lives and works in Orlando do the early entry with DS and/or the FOL passes with DS? Do I need to put my nephew on our hotel reservation and give him his own key for this to happen or can I just let him use my key? I'm not all that keen on doing that many of the rides, but would enjoy walking around with the guys, having lunch there with them, seeing a few of the shows if we do any etc., so if it's a key thing he can use mine. My nephew has a season pass too and has been to the place a lot (worked Halloween Horror nights two seasons as a park time gig too before getting a full time job in his field) and on other stays to Orlando has even gotten us discount tickets to the parks when we went with him.
Our dates for our stay by the way are Nov. 12-16, so I guess if all of that is just too complicated it's probably not that horribly busy. Just seems a shame to not let DS use that early entry and FOL pass, but hanging with his cousin at the parks probably trumps that. In past visits we went at non busy times and it really and truly was no big deal not to have those perks.
