Purchase tickets in advance?

[kjccr]

Hi,
We leave next week for our US/WDW trip and I still need to purchase our tickets to US. We are staying at the Hard Rock Hotel. My question is, if I purchase the tickets in advance from home and print the tickets here, do we still get the "fast pass" option for staying on site? I'm thinking that we use our printed tickets to get into the park, but then use our room key to have access to the fast line, right?? Also, if I print the tickets at home (we are doing 3 day, park to park tickets) will I get 3 tickets for each member of my family - 1 for each day or will I get 1 ticket for each person that we reuse each day we go to the park?? Sorry for the vague questions...just trying to figure out how it works. Lastly, would you recommend printing tickets at home or at the kiosks at the park??? Thanks so much!

WHere you buy your tickets has nothing to do with express. As long as you are staying at one of the three onsite hotels, express is included.

You should buy your tickets in advance since they are $20 cheaper than at the gates if you are getting a multi day ticket.


You will get one ticket for each person. That ticket will be used each day by the same person.

Personally, I would do the kiosk pickup version because then you actually get a small sized ticket instead of having to carry around a sheet of printer paper for each person.

The resort hotel will have a photo kiosk to make you a separate express pass card that you will use in the parks for the days you are staying at the resort. This is different than the park admission ticket.
