How to use old Super Duper tickets?

[BostonRob]

My parents gave us a pair of old "Super Duper" tickets from 1993. These were the equivilent of 4 day park hoppers, and they have two days left on each. Perfect because we only plan on going to the parks 2 days on this short trip.

My question is, will we bring these right to the turnstyles of the parks, or will we have to 'trade' them in for two day Magic your way tickets?

These old tickets have a space for each day and when you used your day, they stamped it with a date stamp and punched a notch out of the side. I'd be surprised if they still have these date stamps or notch punchers at the turnstyles.

I had two old tickets from 1988. I simply exchanged them at the ticket windows. They compared them to other in a notebook and gave two new tickets.

So when you say ticket windows, does this mean in our resort, at the TTC, at the park entrance, or any of the above?

I went to the TTC.

You can exchange them at any Guest Relations location at the theme parks or DTD. They will give you back a magnetic strip ticket for each of the old ones you turn in. The new ticket will have all the remaining unused admissions that the old ones did. Then you can take the new tickets and use them at the turnstiles. There is no charge for doing this.

I didn't want to take the time to go to guest relations, so when I used passes from 1989, 1987, and 1992, I just went to the gate like everyone else at Epcot and MGM.

Don't you need a magnetic strip ticket to use fastpass?

All I did was show my ticket to the CM at the Fast Pass machine, and they'd print me out a FP.

I have one of those tickets, which I used up completely on the visit in question (1994). Mine even had a (coarse black and white) photo ID of me.

Those tickets are nice items to put in a scrapbook. Although Disney's policy is otherwise, they will probably give you back the old tickets (stamped void) if you ask.

I sent you a PM

Also, they will not let you in the gate with that ticket now. If you do try to go in, the Castmember at the gate will redirect you to the Guest Relations counter. It is not the policy to return old tickets to the guests, but exceptions have been made in the past, so if you want them, ask the castmember at Guest Relations if you will be allowed to keep them.

If they did not require you to exchange the cardboard pass for a magnetic stripe pass, then they could not enforce the required time delay between fast pass fetches. The cast member at the fast pass machine does not know how many other fast passes you have.
