Power Passes are $99 again

[damo]

Just wanted to let everyone know that the sale is back on for the $99 annual power passes. They can be purchased online or at the gate.

Does anyone know how long they'll be on sale? I want to purchase them, but I have to transfer some funds, and it takes a couple of days! YEESH!

 

[damo]

They are usually on sale for a month or so.

So what exactly is a power pass and how is it different from an annual pass, where exactly do you get this pass online or phone? Thanks for the help ........

OMG,
i was looking at the power pass thing and it states no discounts on on-site hotels!I called and the lady said it did not matter if you had the preferred or the power pass you got the on-site discount so now i am confused.Can anyone help?

 

[damo]

Apparently they will honour them at the hotels for the discount (this has been confirmed by the RPR manager). They don't honour them at the parks for food discounts though.

ok great maybe i will call back and get a name of someone who can confirm this so i will at least have a name if they say no.I have learned from past experiences when someone says do you have a name of whom you spoke with?LOL

ok i just called RPR and talked to reservationist "Gerald"
he said it did not matter which pass you had.

 

[dpayne1969]

now i am debating on those kraft tickets.LOL.It is a good deal and i need to just buy one.I dont see how if it does not have an expiration date on the ticket that they could refuse it!I will call tomorrow on that and get a name as well.LOL.I will be showing up in Nov.with my notebook and list of names.

What a great deal!

If I bought one online today, is the pass activated immediately or not until I actually use it? We're not planning a trip until Aug. Thanks!

The pass isn't activated until your first visit. Make sure you check the black-out dates if you are going during peak times.
