If 2 parties arrive to share a 2BR, and both arrive by car, is there a problem getting 2 parking passes?
 
No problem.
Several years ago in an OKW 1-Bdrm for Thanksgiving, we had four people for the night and 8 people over for dinner. Requested and received three extra parking passes for three additional vehicles.
 
In Sept, they did not issue the paper pass, just photo ID and magic band to get access.
 

I think that parking passes were discontinued.

Some of the resorts issue them and others do not. You use your MB to access the gate at the guard shack.
 
I agree that it is all Magic Band now for both Resort Parking and Park Parking.

I'm not certain what is going on with others but we still have always gotten the paper parking pass every visit. Last one was mid-December at Poly. BWV in the spring. BCV last Dec. BLT and PVB last fall.

There's no other way for security to be able to visually see what cars are "legally" in the lot and which are not and I don't see how they could eliminate them unless they don't care who is parking there.
 
Multiple cars = no problem.

Or your ID.

Not all resorts have them.

GFV, and this was at Christmas, had them, but the guard said they were no big deal and we didn't need to worry about leaving it in the car. He told us that they are used to know who to contact if "your lights are on or the car is open or something".

We were there 12/24-26 and yet he didn't care if we left them in the car.
 
No problem. Even at the resorts that charge for parking such as the Grand Californian and Aulani you can have 2 vehicles for the length of stay with points stays.

Without the paper passes they use license plate scanners to track what cars belong to resort guests.
 
If you check in at the desk (not online) the will give you a parking pass if you request it. There may be a problem parking with an additional car at BC, YC and maybe BWV because they have limited parking.

We're here now and that's the way they're doing it. Actually at the moment, just magic bands-no one's asked for photo ID yet. So if we lent our MB to someone with ill intent, it wouldn't get caught.
 
Use the magic band to open the automated gate entrance as a time saver; no need for a paper pass. The lane beside the security booth can back up and be delayed ages when a lost guest chats up the guard.

Disney doesn't ask for license plate numbers for parking so I'm not certain what you are referring to with scanning the plates?
