Have you purchased Park Hoppers from Paramount?

[annie5379]

I ordered my passes today from Paramount, and went with the 30 day FITS passes. I will bring my email receipt with me from Rosa, just in case I run into any problems. I'm not sure it would help, but it would be worth a try!!!

Hooray, Annie, you took the plunge! After talking with DH tonight, we've decided to get the FITS passes too. It's really the best pass for our needs. We'll hang onto the receipt also and hope for the best!

Here's hoping we all have great trips and success with these passes!

I had that same type of reaction with the 10 day ones last summer. Finally it turns out she knew exactly what I was talking about but Dis didn't really want to admit to Americans that the tickets for the Europeans were a better deal - I should have saved that email - it was quite a hoot! Regardless, the 10 day worldpasses were perfect for us. That is what I am aiming for next summer again. It will be plenty for us so I'm not worried about the FITS passes. Also - Disney did indicate they have a TON of passes that are different and its hard for most people handling passes to know anything about most of the programs since a lot are done thru a certain department (promotions maybe?). So don't be surprised if a Dis rep doesn't recognize your ticket name. The computer will and that is all that counts!

local girl-
if you call, Rosa will give you awesome directions. I believe we took exit 78 (conroy) from I4 east. Making a left at the end of the exit and a right at the second? light. It is in a business park type thing with and odd name I can't remember. With Rosa's directions it took us maybe 20 mins to drive over.

Thanks so much for the info everyone!

Where can you use the vouchers for the free breakfasts ?

 

[annie5379]

I recently used the FITS 30 day passes with no problems at all!!! Also, the character breakfast vouchers were also accepted at the princess breakfast in Norway. They covered the meal, taxes, and gratuities. The 6 and 7 day hopper passes and the FITS passes all come with the breakfast vouchers.

They are a great deal!!!

What did you have to do to activate the pass and get the breakfast vouchers... I purchased the 30 day fits pass for my trip in February.

Thanks!!

The breakfast vouchers are attached at the bottom of the vouchers that paramount sends. When you get to the park, you just go to guest relations and give them the top of the vouchers and they issue you the passes. When you go thru the turnstiles you insert your pass and your fingers just like an annual pass.

Hope this helps!!!

Does anyone have a list of the locations that they are accepted at for the character breakfast? I would hate to make a PS res and find out they do not accept them. Thanks!!

I have another question. My sister just told me that she ordered these 7 day park hoppers before, but as she remembers it, the Plus features had to be used within 10 days of purchase. My understanding was that the passes didn't expire. Anyone know anything about this?

FYI - my 5 day PHP's worked like a charm. We had a great time. Paramount saved us money and served us well. I will do business with them again in a couple of years. Maggie

Just read the descriptions very carefully on the site. Certain passes do have limitations, such as my 10 day worldhoppers. Those are good for any 10 days within 21 days of activation (if I remember correctly). These are designed more for people taking a longer period of vacation such as Europeans do but who also go to other places on their vacation - consequently they don't need an AP - this is a better value for them. The 30- day fun in sun work similar to this also. Each tickets terms should be described on paramounts site.

Thanks all for your info! I decided to take the plunge & ordered the 7 day through Paramount. As everyone mentioned, Rosa was wonderful. I was still too nervous to wait to pick them up, so I paid the (international...to Canada!) shipping, and they arrived really quickly. They were still no more expensive than the next cheapest broker, and then we get the character meal, too! We leave on Sunday, so I'll post when I get back. As for the 7 day hoppers, as far as all the info I have (including the back of the tickets) they're totally normal tickets that don't expire.
Thanks again to everyone, & I'll post when I get back!
Merry Christmas!

the park hopper they had years ago(at least back in 1993) used to have the plus features expire around a week after your 1st use of the pass. The current park hopper have all features good forever.

I'm glad you decided to go with Paramount, I too was skeptical the first time I ordered from them (someone other than Disney). I checked them out to the point of calling Disney several times before I could get someone in one of their group sales division to actually confirm that they (Paramount) are legally sellers of Disney Park Passes.

You are right Rosa was fantastic. My tickets worked perfectly and the breakfast vouchers were an added plus. Will use them again for this year's trip.

 

[KCMiller]

I just got the vouchers in the mail, and there is no mention of any 10 day useage period, so I think we're all good!

With the 7 day park hopper plus, I'm figuring that it will cost us each $27.36 per day (I may be able to do 2 parks in one day, but the water parks wear us out!). When you add in the $16.99 + tax + tip that each breakfast would cost you (we have PS at Chef Mickeys!), I can't imagine why anyone would buy passes anywhere BUT Paramount!

We're back, & used 2 days & 1 plus from our 7 day hoppers. No problems at all.

We also surprised the kids with Chef Mickey's for breakfast (for free thanks to the vouchers!) & that was really cool!

I'll be looking at Paramount's prices the next time I need tickets, that's for sure!

Where does it talk about the free breakfast vouchers? I must be missing something.

 

[momsully]

The breakfast vouchers are not on the site but they include them with six or seven day hoppers. I ordered some for our March trip and received the vouchers no problem. They do expire at the end of May.
