Planning first trip

[rstamm]

We are doing ABD trip and going for 2 nights after trip is over on June 24.

The rates for the US are suppose to come out tomorrow, we are thinking of using our DVC points and buying a 2 day ticket for $171, when I did a package price using the UK site its around $2000 staying at New York there are 3 of us.

Are all the shows in French or are some in English, is EO also in French?

Does Fastpass work the same as in WDW?

Thanks for the help.

There are shows in English and EO is also in English. Not sure how fast passes work in WDW, but in DLP not all the rides have fast passes, just the popular ones. Fast passes show you 30min time slot when you can use it. You can not get another one until the previous one's time is up. So one fast pass at the time

Fastpass is the same as the new WDW rules (so no late return) and they're only a 30 minute window.

The shows alternate English/French and the times are always outside for which showing is next.

When is it you're going? $2000 seems a lot for HNY for 2 nights!

June 24, 2 nights, 2 adults and a 14 yr old.

I thought it was crazy high so thats why we would use our DVC points and buy 2 day tickets, the price of $2000 did include tickets.

The rates are suppose to come out tomorrow so I will decide after that.

Thanks for the response on the times guide and fastpass 30 minute window.

Urgh, yeah just priced it up for you. Just over £1000 which is about $1600

This is because they are running the "get 2 nights free offer" so 4 nights would cost you the exact same price annoyingly.

I swear that these "free night" offers have a HUGE increase on the normal per night prices.

On Expedia.co.uk HNY is £692 excluding tickets (about $1050) or the Sequoia Lodge (like a little, less fancy WL) is £531 (about $785)

You could buy Francilien tickets (1 day - 2 parks) for 45€ pp so 90€/$117 pp for the 2 days. Way cheaper

Plus there could be other ticket offers again this year nearer the time where you get 3 day tickets for the price of 2

 

[torsie24]

You dates on the French DLRP have 30% off, but still seem high.

But it's E904 ($1200ish) for 2 nights with tickets and breakfast. - probably your best bet at the moment.

I thought you can only use these one day then have to wait 3 more days to use again?
We would need to use our tickets 2 days in a row.

Wouldn't the French site be in French, if so I would not be able to do it, and would disney honor that since I am coming from the US?

That's a Francilien AP . You use it the first day and then have to wait 2 days before using it again.

The Francilien tickets only have to be purchased at least 5 days in advance and you can buy them for several consecutive days as each one is dated

No I think you can book there.

Yes it is in French but it's easy enough to get to the page you want if you have the English site up at the same time and click in the same places! Lol.

You can book on any of the sites, I'm sure.

 

[Carrie_Cat]

You can book on any countries site regardless of where you live. You just fill in your adresse and then leave France as the country.

Everything is done by email, nothing gets sent to your home.

Several people do this everytime and no one has had any bother when checking in .

 

[kizzabel]

Ive done this. I booked HNY for 3nights 2adults, 1 child for €400 on the French site during a 50% off flash sale. As was said you just fill in your address and leave the country as France. Its 100% legit.

Are dates are firm so that would be the best way to go if we use our DVC points and buy these dated tickets separate.

I was looking around on the DLP website and can't find these tickets could you direct me to the right place.

Thanks

5th offer down

Atm tickets are for this season so up to the 27th of March - for June you'll have to wait until the next season

Has anyone experienced this? As long as you're a guest of the Disneyland Hotel, even on points, no matter from whom you purchased your park tickets, are you allowed early entry?

I was hoping to get a better deal on 4-day tickets than DVC offered, but still wanted Extra Magic Hours. Help, please! Thanks
