question about card when you get there

[angbuesing]

We are doing the 5 day card and they said the ticket is on the card they give you when you get there. How do they know which park you are going to twice? Since there are 4 parks and 5 days I just didn't know if they ask and put it on there or if it stores that somehow????

Do you mean that you have purchased five day park tickets and they are going to be put on your room key card (i.e. you purchased a package)? If that is what you mean, Disney doesn't care which park you go to on which day - just that you can only go to one per day unless you purchased the Park Hopper option. You can spend all five days in the same park if you want to!

You can go to MK all 5 days if you want too.. they dont care

What is does do is tell the computers what park you enter on a given day and if you don't have park hopper the ticket won't let you enter a different park later that same day (but will let you re-enter the same park).

I agree with everything everyone just said.

You bought 5 days of theme park admission; you didn't buy a certain number of admissions to each of the 4 WDW theme parks. As long as you don't go to more than 1 park in 1 day, Disney doesn't care which parks you go to, and you certainly don't need to decide in advance and tell them where you plan to go and on what days. You can go to any park in any order, and you don't have to go to all 4 parks! And you can take up to 14 days to do it from the time you first use the ticket (in other words, you don't have to go to 5 parks in five consecutive days). Your theme park admission ticket information is encoded on the magnetic stripe on the back of your credit-card-type room key.

Even though it was said, it bears repeating ... you may only go to one park per day unless you spend $45 on each ticket to purchase the "park hopper" option. However, you can re-enter the same park as many times as you want on that day.

In other words, let's say you go to Epcot on Tuesday. You can leave to go back to your room, then go back to Epcot in the afternoon, then leave Epcot again for dinner elsewhere, and then go back to Epcot yet again to see the fireworks or whatever; as long as all the in-and-out is on the same day, do it as much as you want. But you can't leave Epcot on Tuesday and then decide to go to Magic Kingdom later on Tuesday.
