Sorry, yet more annual pass questions..

[angel659]

Me again, posting yet more questions.

Ok, so still not quite decided on which combination of passes to get, three fantasy passes look the best balance, but we miss out on free strollers for the twins. Any ideas if they do a double stroller and what are the rough prices for hiring?

Also, We have our meal booked at innoventions for the evening we arrive, but had planned on getting the passes before we enter the park the next day. I read however that I would have to pay for parking and I wanted to avoid this, is there anyway of getting our sponsored passes validated without going into the park? Does the Village have a place I could purchase them, or perhaps a hotel itself?

Lastly, the dream pass mentions you cant park at disneyland hotel, so how much would this cost? or is it ok to park outside the MK and walk to innoventions?

Strollers: no idea

AP at DV: no sorry

Parking: use the parkinglot at Hotel NY, it's the closest you can get for free. Or what about the Vinci parkinglot? But I don't know how much it costs to park over there...

you could get 1 dream pass and then the rest of the family the fantasy pass as only one person needs it for discounts.

can not help with the other questions.

Its worth buying one dream passport for the extra discount (especially at inventions if you are able to get the passes before you dine) it may work out cheaper to get hopper tickets for the rest it really it really depends on how many days you intend to go into the parks and if you plan to go back again) if you do decide on passes for the rest of the family fantasy are fine as long as you don’t mind the blackout days.

I'm sure when we got our passes we were asked if we paid for parking (which we hadn't) if we had done I think we would have got our parking fee back.

Not sure where you are staying (unless you are staying at Davy crocket ranch) catch a shuttle bus I would think it's easier than driving and parking (it's still a bit of a walk from the car park)

You have to go into the park and go to the passport office to get your discount off the passes so depending on what time you arrive will determine if the office is still open.

If you rely on strollers it may be best to take your own as I have heard they aren’t very comfortable, don’t lay back and I’m sure you can't get double ones.
You are also unable to take them out of the park

Hi

Thanks for the advice. Am I right we walk to the park when we park? How far is it? In FL they have trains that take you to the front of the park.

Does anyone know how much Valet parking is in Disneyland Paris hotel?

Thanks and sorry I apologise I just keep asking q's

Hi there is definately no double buggies to be had and the single ones are 6 or 8 euros each. The strollers are a cross between a wheelchair and a shopping trolley.As mentioned they do not recline but do have a hood that offers a bit of shade.

The buggy does come with a buggy board if one of them could stand on the back.

We have the Dream Passes and we pick a buggy up for the kids if they get tired but I would grudge paying for them.

If you are thinking of buying one Dream pass then I would definitely make sure you arrive early enough to get it before you eat at Inventions - you will get a one-off voucher for 20% discount which you can then use.

Unlike WDW, Disneyland Paris is very compact and easy to walk everywhere.

Okay, after weighing up all the options, we are going to go for three fantasy passes.

As theres no double strollers we will be taking our own, so we wont save any money there, you still get a 10% discount with the fantasy pass and its not a one-off. Also, whilst I plan to spend a fair bit on merchandise, I really wanted to buy it as and when I want it rather than wait for the one day 20% discount and buying it all at once.

The plan is to hopefully get to the park for around 3pm, purchase day passes, then get through the gates to get our annual passes and have a quick wander round before heading to Inventions.

With the added bonus that we can go again next year as my we will have almost all of our tickets ( Boys will have turned 3 by then! ). The block out dates dont look too disruptive either.

What do you reckon, have I made the right choice?

Michelle, I'm sure you realise this but I just wanted to clarify that although the Dream Pass gives a one-off 20% restaurant discount, you still get 10% off dining with it the rest of the time. And the 20% shopping discount is available for a whole day. You get a voucher with a blank date on it, on the day you decide to use it (think it has to be used within 3 months of issue) the first shop will write in the date, you then have the rest of that day to use the 20% discount ~ you can use it in as many different transactions and shops as you wish. The rest of the time you get 10% discount as with the Fantasy pass.

What do you reckon, have I made the right choice?

I'm sure you have.

I think you will be fine.
As you want a double stroller you are best to take your own and the block out dates are fairly easy to avoid.

And remember you can get your purchases delivered to your Disney hotel so you are not carrying anything with you

Reid - Can you get things delivered to Davy Crocketts Ranch?

 

[Disney owl]

it's along time since we needed to use a stoller but my advice would be to take your own. You then have it for the Disney village etc & much easier if the children fall asleep at the end of the day.

Yes you can get your purchases same day delivered to Davy crockett. You pick them up from the camp shop which is open till late 10 pm I think.

If you are going to order an annual pass I have a coupon that was given to me when I ordered my pass for 10% off a new annual pass. The 10% discount will reduce a Dream pass from 159euro to 143euro or a fantasy pass from 119euro to 107euro. I can send as many coupons as you want. Just send me a message to my account.
