would you do it for this price?

[stitchlovestink]

I'm helping someone who has access to FL resident passes (they own a home in FL as well as where they reside most of the year). With the current free dining promo I came up with POP for 4 nights w/ free quick service and then they can upgrade their 2 day tickets to FL resident 4 tickets. I booked it for them for $953 for a party of 3. I think that's a pretty decent deal for 4 nights, 4 park days w/ hopping & QSDP. I was contemplating suggesting upgrading the dining if it was only $10pp but then you have to factor in tips too.
Opinions??

Yes, I think that's a good price for 4 nights, food and tickets. The only thing I would say is that you need to verify that your friends have acceptable FL identification. They've gotten pretty strict with proof of residency. It's not enough to just show a mortgage statement or such, you have to have a state-issued ID, I believe. If I can find the official requirement, I'll post it.

Here you go, Claire

These are the official rules:

Florida Resident tickets are only available to actual Florida Residents and cannot be purchased for out-of-state family or friends.

An adult Florida Resident may purchase Florida Resident media for more than one Florida Resident from any location that provides an exchange certificate and not an actual ticket.

Children under the age of 18 are not required to provide proof of Florida residency if they are accompanied by an adult with valid proof of Florida residency

If the Guest has an exchange certificate, a valid form of Florida ID will be required when the exchange certificate is redeemed for the actual pass

One ticket only per valid proof of Florida residence (a Florida resident may buy tickets for minors in the party)

Exchange Certificates may say:

"After sale..., may not be transferred except as a gift." This means that the certificate may be given as a gift, so long as the recipient meets the defined Florida residency criteria.

"Purchase and redemption of this exchange certificate requires proof of Florida Residency."

The following items are the only documents accepted as proof of Florida Residency:
* Valid Florida State Drivers License
* Valid Florida State issued ID Card with Florida Address
* Valid Military ID stationed at one of the Florida Military Bases listed below:
(List of bases removed as unneeded)

Question for you:

For some reason our statement only shows my name with our Fl address, even though it is a joint account in both of our names (I am the primary).

Will this suffice as proof of residency for both of us to get our Fl res AP's?

Claire,
Yes they will be able to provide proper documentation. But thank you for the reminder.

Chesire Figment,
Thank you again for always providing the most helpful and accurate information! You are an asset to these boards!

 

[Claire&TheBoys]

Thanks for putting in the official info, CF. I looked in the Ticket sticky on the Theme Parks board, was going to do a search but didn't have time before I had to go.

OP, hope your friends have a terrific time!

I don't have an official answer for that. However, if you came to my window with the bank statement and I could see that both names were printed on the checks I would consider it sufficient for both. (Sometimes I can be reasonable. )

OK, so I just need to make sure I ask for CheshireFigment's window, right?!!

I did call the bank today about it, and they said they could print out something that showed both of our names on the account.

So maybe I'll come armed with all of it, just in case I can't find you!

Thanks!
