Who has successfully used the 10 day hopper.....

[Kallison]

from Paramount International. I'm thinking of using these for our next trip. We will be down for 10 days, 9 park days and it will be cheaper then a 7 day hopper plus a one day/one park ticket. This way we will have the option of going into the parks any day we are there, except travel day home. The only down side I can see is that if we lose them we have no way of getting compensation from Disney, but DH is very careful and this has never been an issue for us. Also we will have one day left on pass that will expire - I'm wondering if I can pass them off to another DISer to use? What do you all think?

i thought those tickets were only for UK visitors? can we use them too?

We just returned 1/13 and used (3) 10 day world passes. The were great! We went to TL a few time, DQ a few time, PI a few times, all included in the 10 day pass. We also recieved 3 breakfest vouchers. It is a great value and we will use Paramount again. I would not hesitate to give the pass to a DISer to use on the remaining days. You sound very generous to suggest it! Happy planning!

Wow Muffy I had no idea it included breakfast vouchers, DQ and the water parks. That is super, we've been wanting to try DQ. Now I'm thinking I'll book a late Saturday flight and use that 10th day myself - lol! Thanks for the feedback!

I just went back and took a closer look at the description and two questions:

It says one character breakfast but you mentioned 3 breakfast vouchers?

How does the admission to PI, DQ and water parks work? Do you get so many visits like the plus options?

You get a breakfast voucher for each ticket you buy. The ticket works like a PAP, you can go to each theme park, water, park, PI, and DisneyQuest as often as you like.

 

[Muffy]

Yes, disneyjunkie is correct, you use the 10 day world pass just like PAP. You can go to a waterpark, DQ and PI as often as you like! They send 1 meal vouchers for every 10 day pass that you buy. We used our breakfest vouchers at Bomas breakfest buffet. All WDW restaurants are mentioned on the voucher except CRT and the new princess breakfest. Hope this helps!

These tickets sound great, and we're leading toward buying them for our June trip. Does anybody know if there's an expiration date on them and how far out the date is? I know they expire 20 days after the first use, but I'm wondering if they also have an absolute expiration date on them. I seem to recall seeing other posts mentioning an expiration date on tickets they got from Paramount. I'm figured I'd wait until a month before our trip and then order them, but I wanted to check on the expiration date question.

Thanks!

You will not be able to give this pass to anyone else. It requires a finger scan (like the annual and premium annual passes). If the scan fails, you will need to present ID that matches the name on the back of the pass.

FWIW, if you lose this pass, you can get it replaced. I recall a post that reported he had to get one of those passes replaced and did not encounter any problems doing so. Can't remember if he lost it or it somehow got demagnetized. I would assume the replacement process is similar to that for replacing a lost annual pass. It's always a good idea to make a copy of the back of a WDW pass and to keep the copy separate from the pass.

Can someone post some more information on this? I did a search for Paramount Internation and only came up with horse racing.
How much are the tickets, and where can you buy them? And is it only for UK guests? Peggie

 

[BuzzLightYear3]

Here's a link to the site: http://www.paramountinternationaltravel.com/orderTickets.asp

I haven't used them before, but I've seen several other posts on this board indicating people have had success with them. I've also seen reports indicating that these tickets were for UK guests only, but then others indicated that they have allowed Paramount to sell the tickets to non-UK guests and again haven't had any problems.

We're planning to go ahead and get these for our June trip.

Wow! Unless there is a really super deal on hotel rooms with an AP, I have just found the tickets that I will be purchasing for our December trip. That ticket kicks buns!!! It's cheaper than doing what I was about to resign myself to doing. I was going to buy a 5 day PHP and then buy DQ tickets. This was still going to leave me with a few holes in my schedule, but I love the freedom that the 10 day world pass will give us. The character breakfast voucher is way cool too! Chef Mickey's here we come! hehehe

All this with CP and MVMCP tickets will make for a great week. I may even decide to hold off on touching a penguin at SeaWorld with this pass. Mickey

I think I'm going to use this pass on our Christmas also. The only way I'll go with the AP is if I can get a great passholder rate.
If that happens, I'll get the AP for myself and the 10day pass for my son. That will be one less voucher I'll have to buy.

PI just emailed me and said these passes are available to non-UK residents.

According to the Paramount website per the link above, only certain places are listed for the breakfast voucher--Garden Grill (Epcot), Restaurantasaurus (AK), Hollywood & Vine (Studios) and 'Ohana (Polynesian resort). Is this new info...or is their website incorrect and other restaurants are in fact allowed?? This pass sounds very interesting...but I'd rather have a wider restaurant choice if possible. Anyone know for sure? Thanks!

Ok, I just looked at www.wdwig.com and found the following info.

Restaurantasaurus (AK)
Donald's Breakfastsaurus - The Animal Kingdom features
a character breakfast and it's called Donald's
Breakfastsaurus located at the Restaurantosaurus in
Dinoland! Characters include Donald, Goofy, Mickey, and
Pluto. All you can eat buffet from 9am - 10:30am; cost is
$16.99-A and $8.99-C.

Hollywood & Vine (Studios)
Hollywood and Vine Character Experience - Breakfast and
Lunch Character Buffets. Minnie, Chip and Dale, Goofy,
Pluto Breakfast $16.99-A and $8.99-C. Lunch $17.99-A;
$9.99-C

Ohana (Polynesian resort)
Ohana Character Breakfast - every morning in the
Polynesian. Characters include Mickey, Chip and Dale.
The meal is served family-style and features eggs, waffles,
meats, breads, fruit and more. Breakfast $16.99-A/$8.99-C.
Priority Seating is recommended.

Garden Grill (Epcot)
The Garden Grille - Located in the Land Pavilion in the
Future World section of Epcot this restaurant features
lunch and dinner with Mickey, Chip and Dale , all attired
"farmer-style". Meals are served family style. Lunch and
dinner offer rotisserie chicken, fish, steak, potatoes,
vegetables, salad and dessert. Kids food available too.
Lunch $19.99-A/$9.99-C; Dinner $21.99-A/$9.99-C.
Priority seating is recommended.

The question I have is why do they offer a Character Breakfast voucher to the Garden Grill when it doesn't offer a Character Breakfast? Does it cover a lunch or dinner there instead? hmm

We used our breakfest vouchers from the 10 day world pass at Bomas. Boma was listed on the back of the breakfest voucher along with all other WDW restaurants except CRT and the new princess breakfest.

Thanks for posting that info, Muffy. I guess the PI website is out of date...the vouchers sound similar (or identical?) to the Connections vouchers--and aren't those vouchers the same as those given out for at least one of the Disney packages? I've only seen pics of these vouchers online...
