[spiceycat]

is the in advance annual pass discounts - better than the day of discount - for annual pass holders?

I got my MVMCP tickets for $32.95 plus tax. Let me tell you what happened when I bought MNSSHP tickets. Wilma came through FT Lauderdale Oct 24 (before she did we had no plans of going to Disney) but once the power got knocked out and we were told it might be 3 weeks before we got power restored, well I called Disney and we were on our way. (BTW we had power 4 days later the day I got home but my parents were without for 16 days). When we arrived at MK that night (they changed times and it was opened til midnight) I asked about buying tickets to MNSSHP. The CM said I couldn't buy them til the day of. The next morning we go to Epcot and try from guest services and the ticket window to buy them there. No such luck. So we went to MK and went to Guest Services at MK (not the ticket windows at TTC) we were able to buy the tickets for the AP price (I think $29.95 each). We were there again for another MNSSHP on 10/27. I was not able to get the tickets for the AP price. The CM said I could only buy them online (don't think thats really fair since not everyone has the internet) when I explained to him that in South FL there is no power so no internet, he told me that there were no more tickets with AP discounts for that night (already sold out) but he gave me the general advance ticket price. It was about $5 more a ticket but since it was the only trick or treating DD12 would do I said ok.

Now that being said I see by the website they are limiting which days you can get the AP discount. Only for the following dates November 29, December 1, 4 & 13, 2005.
Advanced ticket price is Adults 10 and over: $38.95+tax ($6 more than AP discount)
Day of price is Adults 10 and over: $43.95+tax

hope this helps

I bought my AP-discounted MVMCP tix over the phone and will pick them up at Will Call a couple days before the party.

That is what I did. I was under the impression the discount was only for certain days and only could be purchased in advance.

Order them online under the passholders section of www.disneyworld.com. You can check that you will pick them up at the park.

I saved $40 bucks on 2 adult and 2 kid tickets for the November 29th party!!

For the AP discount, the rule says that you can purchase a total of 4 tickets and they must be picked up at Guest services. I called and ordered 4 Adult tickets and was told all of the above info.

The next day my DH calls to order 4 more. The CM starts out by asking him how many would he like ... DH asks "how many can I order?" She tells him 28 tickets!!! His eyes were bugging out! So he orders 6A & 3C and fully expecting to do the 'will call', she asks him IF he would like to pick the tickets up? or would he like them mailed! Of course he said 'mailed'. Every day for a week I waited for the phone to ring to correct this little problem, but it never did. About 10 days later 9 MVMCP tickets arrived in the mail! The 4 that I ordered are still waiting for me to pick up.

Are the ones that you received in the mail plastic or paper? LOL sorry felt like I was working in a grocery store for a minute. The ones I've ordered in the past that come in the mail are plastic but the will call are paper. I personally like the plastic since we add them to our albums.

I thought it was 4 tickets per AP. In our family there are 4 of us with APs.

The 9 tickets that my DH ordered are plastic - same characters as in years past.

Everything that I read - even the CM that *I* talked to - said 4 tickets per AP.
Only DH & I have AP's (vouchers) but we needed to each order 4 to have enough to cover some of our family (son-in-law & grandkidlets). When the CM asked how many, he figured he'd just order enough to cover everyone - HEY! she offered! He also said that the CM never asked/mentioned an AP, he just told her that he wanted the 'pre-sale discount tickets'. I thought for sure that when the tickets came, we would have been charged just the pre-sale price without the AP discount - but no!

So, just like every other call to Disney, call 5 times get 5 different answers -
