expired park hoppers?

[beckygeez]

I know I have seen this talked about before so I'm sorry for the repetition but I can't find it anywhere. We have 4 PHP from 2 years ago and they had 2 plus options on each. I don't think we used them all up. I thought that I read somewhere that there is a number I can call to find out if they're still valid. If anyone has this info, please help! We leave the 22nd (not soon enough since we just got 5 inches of snow this morning!!) so I would like to get these figured out soon. Thank you!

I am not for certain, but it seems like I have readh ere that there used to be a number to call, but it no longer exists. Can anyone confirm?

You will need to take them with you and have guest relations check them to see if you still have any plus options left. Sorry

When we checked into the WL last year, they were able to check our passes at the front desk. I had just bought a ticket from
Ticketmania and wanted to be sure that all of the days and pluses were actually there. (they were)

Thanks everybody. Oh well, we'll just wait until we get there. If I decide to add onto the 4 PHP that I just bought, can I do that right at the guest check in at POR?

I would try the "expired" hopper pass in the turnstile as a second opinion just to be sure.

One caution, it is very important to keep track of what pass is used when, if you are carrying more than one. It is too easy to waste a day or a plus by using two different passes for the same purpose (theme parks or water park) on the same day.

Yes, they can check it for you at guest relations at PO-R.

Have a great time!

That is VERY important. When we buy passes, we make sure we get different colors. (we request it as soon as we say we want to buy a pass) That way, everyone has a different color for the day and we do not confuse them with the other passes we might have. We have quite a few passes for the 3 of us. One might have 1 day, another 3 days, another 2 days, etc. When we run out off days on a pass I buy them when they go on sale at places like ticketmania. Sometimes we end up with 5 passes for the 3 of us each trip. Another tip I've tried to stick with is writing the days on the pass as soon as we get them. When we use a day, I will put a slash thru that number and write the lower number beside it. As long as I do this every day, I know how many days are left on the pass. No one has ever questioned me about the writing on the back of the tickets. I actually got the idea from one of the CMs who wrote the number of days left on the ticket when I had them checked one year.
