Ticket Questions?

[Fishteacher]

Hi, we will be visiting the world next week with our paper, annual passes. Do we have to make any changes to them? My brother mentioned having them converted to another type?? If not, should we enter the parks via the turnstiles or the new mickey machines? Finally, if we have to enter through the turnstiles, will these entrances be obvious or will I find out I am in the wrong line when I am at the front?

I am trying to make sure I have all of my facts straight before I lug the family into the park. I really don't want to be "that person" that holds the line up. Any info would be appreciated!

Take the tickets to any ticket booth or guest relations and they will upgrade you to the new RFID plastic tickets, free of charge.

Thanks, could you please tell me what an RFID is? Also, can I use this at the new mickey turnstile?

RFID = Radio Frequency IDentification - it's a wireless transmitter chip embedded in the card or other object, that can be read at a short distance without requiring a battery (or longer ranges with a battery, or a higher power reader). It's generally faster, more accurate and more reliable than magnetic-stripe systems.

The new "Mickey" touch-point entries require RFID tickets.
