Parking before you get your annual pass?

[tarheelalum]

We are getting signature annual passes next week but we will not have them until after we park, and pay for the parking. I guess parking is around 17 dollars now and I'd rather not pay it if I don't have to so I was wondering will they apply the cost of the parking to our annual passes??? or should I go to DL the day before and get the annual passes to avoid the parking charge?

Park as usual on the day you plan to buy your passes, take the parking stub to the booth, and the parking fee will be applied to the price of your pass.

When I ordered our annual passes earlier this month they were emailed to me. The first time we went to the park I printed them out and the parking attendant gave us free parking. We then went to the ticket booth and got our real passes. I don't see why they wouldn't do the same for you.

This. If you pay for parking and get an annual pass that includes it, they will refund your parking fee or apply it to your pass.

Or can Park at DTD for 2 hours. Shouldnt take that long to get the pass. Avoid paying for park

Thanks everyone for the helpful advice.

I just figured that I would go to the ticket booth there at DL and do the complete transaction but now that you mention it I should buy the passes at home and then print everything out and bring it to the booth to save some time. Did they give you the card/annual pass there at the both or a temporary card and later mail you the real card?

I'm not sure of the exact way things happen now with ordering the AP online, but you'll get everything while you're there.

I ordered my pass online, and printed out the voucher. I took the voucher to a ticket booth, and they gave me my annual pass right there. If this is your first annual pass (not a renewal) they will take your picture either at the turnstyle, or have you go to a photopass cast member to have your picture attached to your annual pass.

They will let you in at the turnstile with the printout but you will have to eventualy go to the ticket booth sometime that same day to get the hard ticket. Then they will take your photo when you go thru the turnstile again with your hard ticket.
Sometimes the booths are less crowded later in the day. Go in, play, then come out later to get the pass.
