If I have prepurchased tickets, do I go right to the turnstyles???

[ShannShann]

Last time I went to DL, we made the mistake of not purchasing tickets before arriving. In order to avoid purchasing tickets there, (one less line, right?! if I buy them online, disney store, or Vons, can I walk right up to the turnstyles and go in????

It'll be myself, DH, and our 2 year old DD. I want to buy an annual pass for myself and a regular one day ticket for DH, DD is free. What should I do in this case???

Thanks a million!

If you have a regular ticket, you go right to the turnstiles. If you have some sort of voucher, I'm not sure. We bought tickets from AAA then upgraded them the second day to an AP inside the bank on Mainstreet.

By a "regular one day ticket", do you mean 1 park or a hopper? You can't buy a 1 park - 1 day pass in advance. They must be purchased at the ticket booths. If you're getting your dh a hopper, you can prepurchase at the disneyland.com site along with your AP and go straight to the turnstiles.

As long as it's a ticket with a barcode, you can bypass the ticket booths and go right to the turnstyles. That's why we always pre-purchase our tickets. I've bought them on-line and at the Disney Store and it saves a lot of time. Lately, I've been able to buy them at a discount from my school employee's union office. I get actual tickets that we can use to get through the turnstyles. No more waiting outside to buy tickets!

Do I need a ticket for my daughter? I know since she is 2 she is free, but do I still need to get a "ticket" in order for her to enter?

No ticket needed for 2 and under.

No, your daughter won't need a ticket.
Have a great trip!

Do you mean that you cannot pre-purchase a 1 park-1 day ticket online? Because there must be some way to pre-purchase those tickets in advance, as a client of mine has given me a bunch of them and we did exactly what the OP wanted to know. We walked right to the turnstiles with them.

maybe i'm confused as to where the turnstyles are located...but don't you want to go straight to the security tables/lines first?! or are the turnstyles located before the security tables/lines?!

Security first, then turnstiles.

The ticket booths are also after security.

You cannot order them on line but there is a (714) number to call and order them.

That must be how my client got them. I knew she pre-ordered them somehow!

My work sells us directly one day paper park hoppers with the bar code for $66. I'm sure many other So Cal businesses do too.

The Disneyland.com ticket site shows that 1 day (and 2 day) parkhoppers are available for order on-line - there's just no discount for ordering them on-line - you pay the same price that you would at the main ticket booths. I got as far as putting them in my cart and getting asked how I wanted them delivered.

Try GAT getawaytoday.com or anaheimoc.org for pre order if you don't have AAA.

I think with GAT you pick up the tickets once you get there but they did give me an option of having them mailed. Not sure about the other website.
