How do you carry your tickets?

[battymum]

So, I am wanting to know how everyone manages their tickets, on our last trip I was so jetlagged, I lost all of my control freakedness and let everyone carry their own, no lanyards, they just kept them in wallets.
We had no dramas, but it was probably a little insecure to keep them this way.

Is it best to keep the whole families together, and risk losing them all together?
Keep in mind, we are travelling to Tokyo Disney and I don't think replacing them will be easy.

I always just go the wallet, always worried lanyard plastic will break

At TDL you'll see the vast majority of Japanese wear lanyards and they are all stylised - lots of characters and kawaii cartoons and fun shapes. The shops are chocka full of them in every shape, size, pattern, colour, character.

I use a Vera Bradley mini hipster which I picked up for $20 at the Vera Bradley outlet store in Orlando - not that you can go there on this trip!

If you are talking about Disney tickets then I had them all in my lanyard. There was no way I was letting anyone else in my family take responsibilty of them plus I was the designated Fast Pass runner so I needed them all together to put them in the machines

I keep all of the passes together in a Kathmandu zipped wallet/pouch around my neck. Love the look of those Vera Bradley ones though Sugarglider.

All of ours were attached to our lanyards. We had no issues with them.

Thanks everyone.

I was hoping for alternates to lanyards, but maybe if they are especially cute.

I didn't buy a TDL lanyard - but they are a big seller there! And I hope you like rice crackers.

My son just said to me, "we are not going to be the lanyard family are we??"

Grrr, teenagers and their self consciousness!!

I have a mind to make them wear matching tee shirts and bumbags!!!

i guess you could keep all of them together in one lanyard/purse. for us, they were just as secure in a wallet in our bags as they were in the lanyard around our necks... we kept ours in individual lanyards and then just took them out when we needed them.

I held on to all Key to the world cards on our last trip. As we neared the turnstyles I handed them out to everyone, then they handed them back.

Couldn't trust my youngest son to not lose it, he is hopeless

DW held on to all our tickets on the last trip. As a school teacher she is well prepared after all the school excursions. So she would hand them out at the gate and collect them on the other side.

I am hoping on our next trip the Magicbands will be in use so tickets won't be required. I was excited to see what they may be thinking on the DIS blogs

DH carries the tickets in his wallet (so he can go ahead for all the fastpasses). I carry everything else...

 

[aussietravellers]

I always carry them in one of those little plastic zip up fastpass pouches that has a little clip thing at the end to add to a lanyard (but I don't attach it to the lanyard) I buy a new one each trip as they are not something that lasts. I am the controller of the tickets and fastpasses. I put the fastpasses in it too.

He might change his mind once he sees all the teenage/early 20 boys carrying giant Duffy's, wearing mouse-ear headbands and wearing themed lanyards as they do in TDL. The lanyards really are something else over there. Really cute ones We got a Stitch head, but managed to lose it on the way home
