Package Paid For: Now What?

[angierae]

Okay, so yesterday I paid off my package and they sent me some e-documents. It says to print them all and bring them, but the only "voucher" looking things are for the photo thing at Shutterbuttons and the two breakfasts that are part of our Harry Potter package.

Will they give us our actual tickets when we arrive? Will they be the small ones that fit into a lanyard?

Let's see - I checked in with a package earlier this month. I checked in and then used two kiosks in the lobby. One printed our tickets and other vouchers (CityWalk, HHN). The other was for the EP - it took a picture and printed it. Both of the kiosks printed business card-sized tickets. When I got to the park, I took my Shutterbuttons voucher to the photo store right inside the gates to get the PhotoConnect card.

I took a picture of the cards a couple of nights ago for the scrapbook I'm making of the trip. I think the top one is the ticket, the bottom one is HHN, and the other is my room key.

Okay, I'm confused about the Shutterbuttons thing. Thank you so much for your reply, though. I have to take the voucher to the photo store and then get something else that I actually take to Shutterbuttons? What if I buy the 3 day photo pass, can I just take the voucher to Shutterbuttons? Is that the Photoconnect card you had to get?

Argh, this is all new to me. I admit I got a little spoiled by MagicBands and everything being in one place.

Nevermind, I just saw where it says that, but then says you have your choice of 4-5 different things.

You will be able to get all this "paper work" out of the way quickly and then forget about it! The Shutterbuttons package comes with the moving pictures CD (so much fun) AND a 3 day PhotoConnect pass. The PhotoConnect card is what you will pick up when you enter the gates. They give you a card and a lanyard. The lanyard is handy because Team Members will spot it sometimes and pull you over for pictures.

When I was picking up the PhotoConnect card, they added the Shutterbuttons to my PhotoConnect account, too, but when I got to Shutterbuttons, I got the impression that they don't always do that. The same confirmation number you received works for both PhotoConnect and Shutterbuttons, so it doesn't matter what order you do them - I just knew I would miss picture opportunities if I didn't get it right away!

WAIT WAIT WAIT are you telling me I don't have to pay for the 3 day PhotoConnect pass? That would be AMAZING and save me $100!

I might have spoken too soon - I bought the Shutterbuttons package through the Amazing Photos web site - and it came with the 3 day PhotoConnect. Since you did the resort package that includes Shutterbuttons, I'm not sure - I did a different resort package. Hopefully someone will come along soon who bought the same package that you did!

Oh! Okay.

Oh, okay. That makes more sense. Hrm. Ah well. Was worth a try
