Quote from: JMB on January 03, 2019, 10:58:19 PMHi,A couple of questions which I've struggled to find answer to so hope you educated lot may be able to help. First, we have just arrived back from DLP and, whilst there, were asked a couple of times to wait for Annual Pass holders to see characters before us. Is a 'Fastpass' for characters a benefit if APs?And my second query is that I have read that if you buy a Magic Plus AP then you can use it during black out days, so long as you book a Disney hotel. I find this quite an odd one but would make the Magic Plus very tempting.Thanks in advanceAre you sure it was AP holders that were given priority and not disability passes? Seems odd that AP holders would be given priority.I think a (paid) hotel stay overrides AP block out dates as you would be given park tickets for your stay. Not sure of the situation if you have just added the AP holder to the booking and just paid the tourist tax though.

Not sure of the situation if you have just added the AP holder to the booking and just paid the tourist tax though.The first time the Cast Member said Infinity Pass and I didn't think much of it, assumed something had been lost in translation and it was a disability pass, but then it happened a second time and they said Annual Pass. Seemed strange but thought it was a great benefit if it is the case.On the second query, the suggestion was that if you booked a hotel only then the AP would work. Its an ED92 blog that I was reading, originally written in French so I had to use Google translate as my French doesn't go beyond a few sentences.I'm considering AP this year and have been looking at all the benefits, hence the questions. Thanks again
I am thinking of getting a annual pass and wondered what restaurants you get discount at and whether its worth it We eat a lot at rainforest and planet Hollywood and wondered if they are included
A paid hotelstay (also just paying the tourist tax does indeed override any blockout days. In fact, it's "a stay at a Disneyland Paris-hotel" that does, so it might even be when you're not paying at all but do have a Magic Pass for a specific date. I have never heard of AP-guests getting priority over non-AP-guests at character meets. As suggested, it might be a case of bad english from the Cast Member?

Hi guys quick question on the Discovery annual pass.I'm planning on going to DLP next June and am aware of the blockout dates and the fact that if i purchase an annual pass say on a Wednesday, I cant use it for the next two days (Thursday and Friday) and wont be able to access the parks until the Monday as its not valid for weekends in June.Can I visit on the Wednesday and just buy general admission tickets to enter the parks and then go back on the Thursday and buy the discovery annual passes and have the price of the previous days tickets deducted from the cost but have access on the Thursday too. In this instance i could get back into the park on the following Monday, but means we might get an extra day in the parks? Can anyone advise if this would or wouldn't work?
