Photopass Plus

[duck tales]

Hi All,

When I went to DLRP in Novemeber I wanted to Purchase Photopass plus being a family who buy a lot of photos on each trip we thought this would be worth it. The Castmember advised us that we had to have internet connection on phone in order to access which we havent as only got pay as go phones and it would cost a fortune on our tarriff. We are going back in the summer and we are again considering to buy. My question is do I hvae to have internet access? how does it all work as well please?

Hi we bought one last time we were there. I assume you have Internet access at home to view and print etc? Apart from that you don't actually need Internet access to use the pass, you just hand the card to the photographer at meet and greets or at the counter at the end of the rides. I used the hotels wifi to check at the end of every day that the photos had uploaded. I downloaded the app onto my phone before we left and set up the account, then once I had the pass just associated the pass number with my account.
So basically you don't have to have Internet access but its advisable if you want to check the pics are there. Think most hotels have wifi now.

What rides have PhotoPass? Also are there plenty of Photopass photographers available throughout the park?

There are photographers only at Meet 'n' Greet locations. There are no photographers walking around the park.

The following have ride photos:

Big Thunder Mountain
Buzz Lightyear
Space Mountain
Pirates of the Caribbean
Rock n Roller Coaster
Tower of Terror

You don't really need internet connection, but the pass needs to be activated with the code on the back within 10 days.
Though, it is a convinience, and you can use the wifi at the DHL, as the system still has so many glitches *sigh*.
The amount of times I've heard already that people end up with other people's pictures on theirs, and like happened to myself, when you check the next day, and pictures have just dissapeared!

As long as you're still in Disney, and you can check, if you see something is wrong, you can always set it straight by going to a shop where you can view the pass (they can retrieve/delete pictures).
My friend's pictures she had with Buzz at one point weren't on there at all in the end.
(and we noticed it too late, as I also can't use internet unless at the DHL and couldn't get it fixed anymore)
