KTTW cards and hole punches

[lilyfrog73]

Would I be able to punch a hole in my card to attach to a coil key chain and wear on my arm/wrist? We did this with our sailing passes on our cruise and didn't know if it would work with these cards as well. Maybe the photo pass cards too?

Not a good idea since the passes have to go through the entrance turnstiles. Once you do that, there really isn't any reason you need to have them hanging around your neck, off your belt, whatever. You really only need them to get a fast pass or to charge to your room, so just stick them in your pocket.

Actually, no, don't stick them in your pocket!

Park passes and KTTW cards can easily be damaged by scratching the magnetic strips. This happens to people all the time, but most of the time they think it's been demagnetized by a cell phone or a "magnetic personality." Sliding your pass or card in and out of your pocket a dozen times a day for park entry, room charging, and dining use is a sure way to scratch the strip - or hit it with a static charge - and cause it to malfunction.

A better way is to keep your cards and FP slips in a neck lanyard. I use a 97-cent cheapie from WalMart, but there are also more Disney-esque versions available in most resort and park gift shops at WDW.

Thanks for the tips. I'm glad I asked!!!

Not sure if you are planning to do PhotoPass, but here's a great tip. If you are planning to go to one of the water parks, be sure to get a PhotoPass card there. They come on a wristband/spiral thingy and the card is small. We did not go the waterparks until our 3rd day, but I used that PhotoPass card for the remainder of our trip...SO easy!

You also can have your photopass cards combined into one, in case you are like me and forget it and they issue you another.
