Key to the World?

[Moira222]

Hi all, I'm a lurker here, cruising through for ideas as we plan our Jan 2009 trip. I have a question, esp in light of the anticipated rate hike in a few days.

If I buy my tickets now, and make my reservations online and buy the food plan online, will I still be able to use the single "key to the world" card when I get there? That was one of the perks that my hubby loved so much -- one card for everything-room key, meal plan, park admission, even charging back to our room.

I really want to make sure we can do it that way again but also would love to save $$ on tickets & a room rate (AAA) if possible.

thanks!

If you are staying at a WDW resort, I believe you can put your tickets on the card. We have always booked everything together and we receive the room key/ticket/ability to charge card when we checkin.

Thanks! I also just found the answer on an old post http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?p=8121326#post8121326&highlight=key

that said basically the front desk would be able to "merge" the ticket onto the room key if you want.

I love this site!

You can't add the dining plan to a room-only reservation without tickets. You can book a AAA package through AAA with discounted room, plus tickets and dining.

so if i go on line & select "already have tickets", I won't be able to order the meal plan??? you can't get a package for January yet and since there's no way of knowing how much the park tickets will go up, i'd like to get them this week at the current rate. i didn't want to go through aaa, i was just going to use the reservations line to apply my AAA membership to my room.

Tickets and room make a package....room only is not eligible for the dining plan.
