Premier and Preferred Annual Passholder Preview May 9-11 (8:00AM-9:00 AM)

This announcement (which is a postcard) came in the mail and has a coupon. It says to fill out the coupon and bring to the AP tables at the Simpson's Ride at the above date. Coupon is valid one visit of your choice May 9-11 (8-10 AM) You also get a free Squishee coupon and Free the Simpsons Souvenir. Nothing on the coupon about guests.

I didn't get my postcard yet but I rode Simpons today and I wasn't impressed.

Cool...I'll do The Simpsons on May 10 and Toy Story Mania on May 11.

Oops, yes, you are correct. I'll edit my post. Thanks.

Ok, I just re-read everything and the ride preview is from 8-9 AM only. The coupon for a souvenir is from 8-10 AM. I also just got an email saying the preview itself is from 8-9 AM. I'm going to edit my post again so no one shows up too late to ride.

So the AP preview for the ride is from 8:00-9:00 AM

I didn't receive a postcard, but I did receive the annual pass backstage email that mentions the AP Simpsons preview and that May is Passholder Appreciation Month.

That sounds like a good plan.

am a Universal Studios annual passholder too and received the coupon for the Simpsons ride passholder weekend next weekend May 9-13th. However, one of my family members unfortunately threw out the coupon. I called the Universal Studios passholder hotline and they said due to it being a mass mailing, they were unable to mail me another coupon. Is there anyone out there that did receive the coupon and that would be able to scan or make a photocopy for me? I would really appreciate it. My e-mail is idrion at yahoo . com Thank you very much!

They will have some at the preview.

You think if I order an AP on the net Friday it will be available to pickup at gate that early and we would be able to attend the event early?

 

[phamton]

It usually takes 24-48 hours to process an online order. I'd order it a few days earlier (like on Wednesday) and pick it up on Friday morning.

 

[Jonny_Duck]

Well we live about 4 hours away or so and planned on going saturday... We could order it like Mon to make sure its processed etc. Not sure what time they open the machines though if we would be able to pick it up if we left at 4am and got there at 8 or possibly if we got hotel night before but even if we did that we would prob get there at like 9 and i think they close early that day. Is there a ticket kiosk at citywalk that would be open later?

Also glad you told me about processing on their website says you can pick it up immediatly after ordering so planned on getting Friday would of been lame to drive that way and not been able to go in. Their flex pay seems like a great way to do their tickets....any special hidden reason not to do flex pay over just buying the ticket outright that you know of?

I have some friends who do the flexpay and they've run into problems with not being charged for the month and then they have to straighten it out when they go again since the pass shows expired at the gate. If you have the money, I would go ahead and pay it all and be done with it.

 

[donaldduck352]

Just pay the ticket price.I donn't trust banks or credit cards. Way to much paper traile for me.

 

[Jonny_Duck]

Yea I can prob buy it outright if I want to but if only prob is just to straighten it out shouldnt be a problem. I plan on paying off a Disney year round also in same trip but I convinced mom to get her pass from the flexpay option so I wont be telling her about troubles others have lol.
