e-tickets questions?

[ashpinoza]

im a bit, apprehensive about using etickets, for ANYTHING. for some reason i always think they wont accepts them or something. OCD i guess. someone put me at ease with it! i have to use them because we are leaving in 10 days and i dont wanna risk not having our ticks arive in time in the mail!

They're super-easy! Pay for them, print them up, and take them straight to the gate.

assuming you are talking about etickets from disney.com, super super easy and very reliable. Just print out your ticket/voucher at home, take the papers to the turnstyle and the CM will scan your papers (barcode) and exchange them for regular sized tickets.
Easy easy easy
no problems no problems no problems

Sounds like you already did it!

What I did when we did AP vouchers online was to make sure I'd sent it to a web-based email address...hotmail, gmail, etc. Something you can access from ANY computer.

That way, if your printout gets messed up, you can just get to a computer, log into email, and retrieve the PDF from their email in that way, and reprint.

Even when things go wrong with E-tickets, it will probably work out OK.

We got E-tickets and I used the very helpful advice to send to my web-based email, just in case something happened to my physical confirmation.

Except I put my address as "@google.com" instead of "@gmail.com".

So of course I never got the confirmation! They can't do anything about it over the phone if you don't receive it.

But if you go to the ticket booth with the credit card used to purchase them, you can eventually get your tickets. It took quite a while, to be honest--maybe 15 minutes?--but we did eventually get them. (Luckily we arrived at the parks around 7 or 8 PM, so there wasn't a long line.)

So you're not out the ticket price even if you never receive your confirmation (or leave it at home).

But of course it's best to just type in your correct email in the first place, though, as the OP did.

We just used our etickets on our trip last week. Very easy, like every here is reporting. You'll print out a ticket for each person. Go right to the turnstyle (thanks Dis'ers for that tip, otherwise I would have went to the window), and give your printouts to the CM. They will scan them and then hand you a regular ticket that you can use for the rest of your trip, and for fastpasses.

I also made sure I had the tickets sent to my yahoo email.
