I just received my Alamo Park Hoppers

I ordered my hoppers on Feb 14 and they arrived today via regular mail. Pretty quick!

Ours came yesterday too. We all danced around the house like idiots!

 

[westjones]

That is so funny! My daughters brought in the mail and they stood there watching me open the envelope and a loud "YEAH!" was shouted as I pulled out the tickets. Everyone has already 'claimed' the character ticket they want to be theirs .

We won't be using them until September! But we are already excited!

I know everybody in my house claimed theirs also, DS is Mickey, DD is Minnie, DH is Donald (because his name is Donald) and I am stuck with Goofy :< -- I wanted to be something pretty. It's always the mom that gets stuck with the last choice.

How much were the tickets if you dont mind me asking?

 

[hercamore]

Hi,

Are the Alamo park hoppers paper or plastic cc types?

kids 135.27
tax is included in above prices

 

[coachYO & my 3 girls]

Where do you order those tix? Do they have longer time tix?
Thanks, YO

 

[westjones]

Cheapmom,
You are a nicer mom than me, I picked Minnie and gave DH Mickey and the kids had to pick between goofy and donald. Actually, I really did it more so they didn't fight over Minnie (I have twin daughters). I figured that if *I* took Minnie they would have to pick a 'boy' character and no one would be too upset.
Kids!

ALAMO 800-560-2397
don't know if they have 4, 5, 6 ... day hoppers

 

[tbuot]

Is this offer still going on? I checked on the alamo website a week or so ago and it said that the promotion is over???

 

[2minny]

it's too late for them to mail our tickets, they told me we would need to pick them up at will call...has anyone ever done this? Is it a hassle?

 

[westjones]

I have never done the 'will call' so I can't answer about that, but as far as if it is still available, you could always call the number and see. It wasn't listed on the Alamo site when I called, in fact, I didn't even mention Alamo, I just called the number and asked for the price of the 3 day hopper, confirmed that it was with 1 plus and then asked for 4 of them.

It never hurts to call and check.

Its still available. Call the 800 number directly not Alamo. Remember you actually are talking to Disney people not Alamo people. I called today to get some for my in-laws. The representative did tell me that she wasn't sure how long the 3 days are going to be offered because she said they periodically change the "special". They offer 4 days too. I can't remember how much they were but it was under $200 for an adult if memory serves. I think they offer all the same tickets but a few that are normally offered like the 3 & 4 day hopper plus.

I ordered mine on the 13th too, but I have gotten mine yet. I am jealous some of you have yours. I'm glad to hear these cards are the hard plastic instead of that paper ticket. Those tickets are a mess. Last year I worried about them getting wet, torn, or just messed up in general.

When I opened up my passes from alamo I had 3 (2 mickey and 1 goofy) I only purchased two, only two have the printed writing on the back. Did anyone get an extra card? Do you think its just a mixup blank card?

 

[jlcbshaw]

I received my passes in the mail today. I ordered six and received six. As far as an extra pass, no room on my receipt, more than likely it has no value due to the lack of writting.

It would make a great addition to a pin lanyard though, just drill a hole and there you go!

[westjones]

I went and checked, all of our tickets have the magnetic strip on them. Maybe the extra one was just an accident that wasn't activated.

[tigger12jb]

There is a magnetic strip on the extra just no writing...I thought maybe it was blank etra as well but it wasn't even connected to the paper with the "sticky glue" paper just folded in paper...I wonder
