Resort hopping and UPH

[Lizzydoll73]

If I stay my first night at a value resort then switch to POFQ for 6 nights can I get my UPH to start the day we check into POFQ not the day we check into the value? Are they treated as two seperate reservations? I hope this makes sense. We will be driving from NJ and arriving midday. Instead of checking into an off site hotel we are considering staying at Disney so they can move our luggage to POFQ while we start at the parks. I just want to make sure I won't have an extra day put on the UPH.

First off, welcome to the DIS, Lizzydoll73!

Let me see if I got this straight. You are driving down, arriving mid-day, and will not be going to the park on that arrival day? You will be staying at a value resort. The second day you will be moving to the POFQ, and you want Disney to move the luggage for you. If that is the case, your night at the value resort should be a room only reservation without an UPH ticket. Your UPH would start the minute you check in at the POFQ.

If you are planning on going to the parks on your arrival day, you would have to get a two day UPH at the value resort, and then an UPH at the POFQ, so you would have double admission on your transfer day.

The reservations are considered seperate. You can not link them when you are transferring resorts (at least you couldn't when I stayed last August). Sometimes, at check in they will let you drop a day from your UPH, but that isn't always the case.

It can be confusing. I hope that I have helped

I think i understood you right. If you check into a value but do not want park tickets you need to make a room only reservation. Then when when you make your reservation for room and UPH tickets at POFQ. You may want to check around for tickets sold seperately through other venues( 6day park hopper or other options). It may save you money-unless the package is a great deal. Have Fun!

You can take first/and or last days off a UPH if it is not a package.
