Title says it. I am6 days away from my trip and was about to preorder my Photopass. Saw some info on the Plus and decided to go for that choice, but I don't have 14 days. Am I SOL on PP+ or what ? For that matter is it really worth the extra money over the regular Photopass? Where can I find a list of what extras are included in the Plus? I didn't see a real specific list on the Photopass site. We aren't doing any character meals so I don't need photos there but would love to get ride photos included.

Any help? TIA ..................P
 
I think I answered my own question. I can buy Photopass Plus at the parks when I arrive for the "not so" bargain price of $199.99. Is that right? And I found a list of the rides included in the PP+ over on allears.net. ..........P

This is correct.

However, if you aren't doing any character meals, you can also just pre-buy the PhotoCD for $119.95, and then buy the Attractions+ when you are in the parks. That was I beleive $44.95, and lets you claim any ride pictures for as long as the card is valid, just like PhotoPass+ would. You wouldn't get the stock photo CD or Character Dining pics this way, but I don't think the stock photo CD is that great, and you aren't doing Character Dining. Then your total would be $165 instead of $200.
 
Get the +. Great value (full price or preorder price). After all, aren't trips for the purpose of establishing great memories?
 

how do you even get the discount? Cant seem to find it and today is my 14 days out! :/

This is a great idea!
 
Thanks for the reminder! We are 17 days out and I didn't realize there was a 14 day out requirement!!
 
I have been in at least 3 photoshares for the photopass through the Disney World Photopass facebook link. I usually pay $15-20 for the CD. Other families' pics may be on the CD, but you can later separate yours. (These are individuals who pool their pics and have a "leader" who orders the CD, etc.
and establishes an account.
 
we leave for Disney in 3 days just called and asked if we could still pre order over phone and the cm said that you can ONLY pre order if you call 3 days prior to check in AND have a package booked...either hotel and tickets or hotel and dining...or if you were a dvc member. only other option if none of that applies to you is buying it at parks full price or buying the regular pre order photo pass and adding attractions plus at park.

This happened to us on a prior trip. We just decided to order the regular photo pass. This past trip, we got photopass plus. I liked it and think it is worth the extra 30 or so. It isn't worth 200.00 If you can't get plus, I would just stick to regular photopass.

I wanted to call attention to this. Most don't know about this option. You CAN get the pre-order at less than 14 days IF you have a package booked. The voucher is given at check-in instead of by mail.

This is more difficult with PP+. You only get 1 card that is good for only 14 days.
 
Thanks for all of the ideas and suggestions. I am preordering Photopass today and will add the Plus option when we arrive (I hope!).

Knew I could count on my Dis friends!:thumbsup2 ..................P

We added to our package I think it was 6.00 more than Pre purchase price but worth the convience.:)

Can you explain this to me? We're going down with a friends family and through the week our group will be split up multiple ways - I had considered the Photopass + thinking that we could do it the same as we had before - just load all of our cards onto one account. From what you're saying, we would only get the photos that were taken when we were all together and had the + card? We can't add any photos that we had taken in different groupings?

You can add multiple photopass cards to the account. If you want any of the extra pictures, then you need to have the + card in your possession, unless the CM is willing to input it based upon a picture of the + card.

Yes, sorry, I wasn't very clear. You only get one + card. You don't need that for regular photopass photographers. You can still use as many regular pp cards as you like. The + card is needed for ride and meal photos. For ride photos, if you split up, the party without the card can write down the picture # and it can be collected later in the day.

All pp cards can be added to your account and will be on your cd. The 14 day restriction is for ride and meal photos only.
 
Can I and how do I order the Attraction Photo Pass? Can't seem to find it anywhere. Can this be pre-ordered or do I need to get it when I get there? Also is there a list somewhere that has the rides available for this pass and also a list of all the restaurants and rides available on Photo Pass +.
