I understand that "E-Ticket" means big, important, expensive and crowd pulling ride, but what is the official meaning and how did it come about?

Are there A, B, C & D tickets? Is it just a Disney thing, or does it apply to any theme park?

[Riebi]

That´s a disney thing. This ticket-thing is from the time as you hadn´t buy a simple entrance pass to get all magique but a little ticket-booklet with tickets from A to E. E was a very exiciting thing like POTC and A something unspectacular as a visit at the fire engine.

Thank you Riebi, that is really interesting! I had no idea such a system operated, it must have been really annoying at times, to have to present tickets for everything, and then realising you didn't have one left for something you want to do and have to dash off to get more!

I haven't looked thoroughly at yesterland.com yet, but I will soon. Has anyone ever made a fun E-Ticket list for DLRP? I was surprised to see Peter Pan's Flight was only a C ticket!

[Riebi]

I think at this time you could also pay a simple attraction. And the if you have a ticket booklet today you can apply it on your passport price (but i think you will get more by solding them on your own  :lol: )

The E-Ticket list is from 1972 so maybe today peter pan will be a ticket better  :?:

I read about it so many times here and don't think i like the idea  :roll:
 i hope they keep things the way they are in Disneyland Paris

[Riebi]

About what?

[howtodeal]

The E-Ticket  

[-breeno-]

Im kinda confused, do you mean you dont want DLRP to change so you have to pay for rides in The E-Ticket way?  I dont think the American parks still do that and i cant see it coming back anytime soon and DLRP will be no difference

[Riebi]

Yes you must not worried about that! This tickets was in use long long ago. Between 1955 and 1982. They don´t use it any more and you can´t buy them. Today you can apply only the old ones on your passport price.

And there are no plans to take this old system again in use.  :wink:

[howtodeal]

Riebi, i completely got it worng  :shock:
I thought that this system is being used in one of the Disney parks in America and
they are thinking about using it in the future in Paris, Thank god it's an old system  :mrgreen:
