Question - would i buy annual passport between 5-6:00pm during week (monday) without problems, please?  ???
Shouldn't be a problem; the Bureau Passeport Annuel is open until 6.

Thank you!

If the queue of people, will remain open for longer?

Another question: I have a 3 years old AP Dream without an extension. Would they extend the validity or give me a new AP?
And can i buy and activate Fantasy AP if i buy it on a blockout day?

There isn't normally a queue at that stage of the day.

If you buy an annual passport it will be printed anew, irrespective of what you may historically have had.

Traditionally blackout days were ignored on the first day of your annual passport. That verbiage was removed from the French terms and conditions fairly recently so I don't know if it's still the case.

Thank you! Any contact at DLP for question about this "blockout days", please?

Hello There!!!!

Me and my family (2adults and 2 kids) planning to visit DLP on 14th Aug. I wonder anyone available to sponsor us for buying Fantasy Annual passes to avail the discount. Hope to hearing from some of you ::) :)  you can contact me at aravind.peddi@gmail.com.

Thanks

@ Vuk, when you enter on a block-out date, you will be able to purchase the passport and stay in the park at the blockout date! When you purchase the francilien at the park, be advised that the next 2 days you won't be able to enter the parks the 2 days after!

Regards and have fun!

1. AFAIK you cannot be sponsored at all and must pay the full price.
2. No idea
3. Dream – the extension you get is of whatever kind your own pass is already
4. You get the form stamped each time you sponsor someone, then you take or post the form and your annual passport to the annual passport bureau in the last month of its validity and they make you a new one with 12 extra months.

Note that the sponsorship and renewal all need to be done within one DLP season (season changes roughly on the first week of April and the first week of November, current season ends 2 November). This does sort of suck if your AP ends on the 4th of December.

@ Stiffle,
I have informed in regards to subject 4 before. I was informed that it doesn't matter if you would get your stamps during the previous season. However you need to get all stamps within one season, you will always be able to use this complete form, for your next renewal of the current passport. You do not need to get your stamps in the same period as the renewal!

These are going to be stupid questions but....

If we get an annual pass does that mean that in future bookings we get:

35% off bookings that include half board offers already added as a promotion?

Same with flash sales if its 35% off do you then get an additional 35% off?

Are you able to book hotels online with AP or is it over the phone?

As we are most probably going 3 or 4 times next year makes a lot of sense to me to get ours when we go next in November

That's good! It isn't what the form says, but it would not be the first time that something DLP has disagreed with what is written.

Booking hotels with the AP discount must be done over the phone and is not cumulative with any other offers.

I think the Disney offers usually outweigh the discount that an AP would get you.

However, if you have an AP, you can just book a room for one of your party, then the other AP holders turn up, stay in the room and just pay tourist tax.

I don't think its possible to book a room without having park tickets included (and paid for).

You need the plastic Dream pass from the Bureau Passeport Annuel to get the free storage concession.
