Annual pass extra magic hours?

Ethan040 · August 20, 2015, 12:27:51 AM

Hi guys, me and my gf have annual passes but I've only just realised I can use them for extra magic hours, I spent a week there in march looked at the signs every day but never knew what it was.., my question is though, how do I get to the main entrance from the car park before normal opening hours because when I turned up in the morning in March I'm sure I was queuing at the bag checkpoint tent thing until opening time? I don't stop in the park hotels I stop just outside so come through the car park entrance.

Thanks

Hi ethan,

During EMH you have to pass the bagage check (just like hotel visitors - there is no need to wait, just join the line and get through) and then go to the entrance of the park that has the EMH, usually Disneyland Parc. At the entrance of that Park are Cast Members who check if you have hotel vouchers or annual passes. After checking then, you can proceed to the turnstiles and enter the Park.

Brilliant thanks a lot, I can't believe I've spent a week at disney already this year and never even knew I could do this.

Normally all your AP benefits are explained in the brochure you get with your AP.
Well it used to be like that when I had an AP, which isn't that long ago (only a few years).

They are, but not everyone can read French

I really would have thought they'd have bothered with English by now.

In any case, surely there's a list in the AP topic on here, and there must be translations online. I refuse to believe there aren't

There's so many helpful people in the DLP fandom that it's impossible that no one has bothered

Dream passes have always given Magic Hours. It is only recently that its been added to Fantasy Passes and some literature still only lists it for Dream Passes. There is still some confusion amongst some as to whether its offered.

I don't think they want foreigners buying APs, as most will pay the more inflated prices for 3/4/5 day passes.

Could very well be!

Hi everyone. I'm planning a first trip to to DLP - quite daunting!

Hotel and flight is booked - just need to sort out tickets - planning to get AP's from SuperTrips.

Trying to decide between Fantasy and Dream passes. The blockout days aren't an issue - but definitely want EMH.

Would you recommend paying the extra for a Dream pass to guarantee EMH?

Thanks

Fantasy includes EMHs so the only difference would be the extra discounts.

If you are not too bothered about block out days then I would go for the fantasy pass, discounts area fraction less but up to you. Have a read on dlrp site about the perks of each if you haven't already.

Just looked up on dlpguide and EMH are included in Dream & Fantasy pass.

loxley108 · September 23, 2015, 02:23:02 PM

Thanks so much. The Dream ones work out an extra £30 for the 3 of us and don't need the extra days or shop discount, was just going to go for it for peace of mind as it there seems some conflicting views on online about Fantasy and EMH.

But if you're the EMH are included, i'll prob go for the Fantasy.

Thanks again
