If you are staying at a WDW resort, you just show your Magic Band at the theme park parking lot gate,
and you can park free.
If you are NOT staying at a WDW and will be using your AP to get free parking...
Tell the CM at the parking gate that you are activating a new AP.
If he lets you in free, great!
But, if he charges you for the parking, just keep the receipt and when you activate the AP, show the CM the parking receipt and
the CM will reimburse you for the parking fee.
1. Concerning the Park Hopper Plus tickets: If purchasing a six day pass, and use up the six days of Main Park entries for the first 6 consecutive days,
a 7th day could be used to go to a Water Park (provided 6 secondary park entries have not already been used) even though the 6 Main Park days have been exhausted.
2. If a six day pass is purchased and on the sixth day we decide we want a seventh day of a park, we can upgrade our ticket on that sixth day (before the last park closes?)
to add a seventh day for the $10/person that is the difference in the original costs of a 6 day versus 7 day.
1. Yes. If you want to do this in advance of arrival at WDW.i was gifted a 1 day park hopper. I am going in December 2018 and staying on site for 5 nights. I would like to upgrade the ticket to the 5 day ph but
1. when I called the person on the line said the ORIGINAL PURCHASER has to call to upgrade the ticket and the same credit card has to be used.
I said well I was going to upgrade my 5 day park hopper to an annual pass
2. could I also use the 1 day park hopper to pay the difference of the 1 day and the 5 day phs to the annual pass and he said yes. is this true?
3. if I buy a 5 day ph, memory maker will they deduct as follows
4. annual pass minus 1 day ph minus 5 day ph minus memory maker = new price for annual pass
any help is appreciated
Hey all - in an effort to surprise me, my husband had to create his own MDE account in order to buy us APs. I am normally the planner for all our trips, but now I can't link our tickets to my MDE account, which drives me insane. Is there any way around this? Or am I going to need to make his account my new main account?
1. You don't (you CAN'T, actually) activate an AP except when you are in-person at WDW.We have annual passes that we will let expire due to their timing. (expires in Aug). We do have a 2-day park hopper that we purchase for this summer's free dining last fall. I was wondering how would we be able to book our fast passes for a 7 day trip we are planning in Dec? We are staying at Pop.
1. Do I call and upgrade the park hoppers to an annual pass and then activate them at the 60 day mark?
2. or tell them to activate in Dec and still be able to book the fast passes?
1. You don't (you CAN'T, actually) activate an AP except when in-person at WDW.
HOWEVER, you CAN BOOK advance FP+ with just an AP Voucher (unactivated new AP) in your
MDX account.
2. You don't have to tell them anything except that you want to change your package tickets to AP.
Again , the AP cannot be "activated" until you are at WDW, anyway.
Thanks for the clarification!
Ah, you can do multiple upgrades as long as the value keeps increasing?
Guests under 18 yrs. don’t need ID.My family has activated AP’s. We are bringing my daughter’s minor friend next week. The friend had her mother purchase her an AP voucher via the website. Friend does not have an ID. I have shared planning info with her mother and can now see her pass on my MDE. I was able to reserve her fast passes. We called Disney and they say if she’s under 18 she doesn’t need any proof to activate the pass. This makes me nervous. I’m questioning if this info is correct. Really don’t want to have issues once we arrive. Anyone experience anything like this?

On a tight time frame so originally I bought 1 day 1 park tix - but couldn’t get FP for FOP for opting to go early one morning and then dessert party at Epcot that night - can I upgrade the 1 day 1 park tix to PH while everyone is enjoying a ride I don’t want to ride? Or do I physically have to have their magic bands?
