I can get my 3 stamps to renew my pass soon, but the group I'm giving discount too, there are actually 4 of them.

I can just sponsor all 4 of them, right?
(and collect the 3 stamps from 3 of them)

yes you can do that - as long as none of them have had annual passes within the last 2 years.

Hi,m just wanted to thank those who had helped me for their responses.  now that i've read through them properly without 4 kids whining 'muuuuuuuum' the entire time I actually understood them!  Does anyone else know if parents if disabled children get free annual passes when buying them for their children?  I know that alot of parks will give a free carer ticket in teh uk, but I'm not sure if that's just for the day.
Many thanks!

I've not heard of anyone getting a free carer annual pass - just the free daily carer park ticket. Maybe you'd be best asking a specific question about that, separate to this annual pass thread? I think more people might see it that way.

When we got our ap's sponsered last year (by 2 lovely forum members :) ) they were only allowed to sponser 4 of us (we were with 6) because one already had 2 stamps. We asked could they not sponser without collecting stamps but were told that they were not allowed ?

Maybe we just had bad luck with the CM ?

I'll eather ask this question on another forum, or need to find a 2nd person who will be there that day and is in need of 1 stamp.

Hi. I have booked a 5 day trip to DLP in July and was looking at the annual passes to try and save some money.  I am looking at the Fantasy pass which would save me approx. €120. However the 1st day of our stay in 6th July, a day which is blocked out for the Fantasy pass. I was wondering if there is any way around this or if I buy 1 day passes for the 6th and then try to upgrade to the annual pass on the day will I be allowed a) to use the tickets that day or b) get the day passes cost refunded.  The dream pass would work out more expensive than the 5 days for the price of 4 tickets. Any information or advise would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all - I am a first time poster and while I have been to Disney in both Florida and Paris previously I never considered the annual pass before. This year, however, I am going to be staying in DLP for 5 days with my wife and 2 kids and is seems to make sense to at least look at this option. In order to save money (c€120) is would appear that the Fantasy option would be the right fit. Now the problem - the 1st day of our trip is a blockout day. My question is can I buy one day tickets and then upgrade on the 1st day to an annual pass and will I then be allowed to stay in the park/move from park to park for the remainder of that day. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

The first day of your passes validity won't count as a blockout day.   So if you went to the park ticket booth on a Fantasy block out date and bought the pass.  It'd be ok to enter that day.  It's the day after you permenant pass has been created for you that blockout dates take effect!

Thanks for the info. Based on that is it better that I buy a 1 day ticket before I go to ensure I get in on the blockout day and then trade up to the annual pass or is it sufficient to just turn up and buy an fantasy annual pass on the day. If I buy the 1day ticket beforehand will I get a refund of this against the annual pass. THanks again

you can just buy your fantasy annual pass on the blockout date, no need to buy one-day tickets then have them transferred into annual passes.
