We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

We bought our AP's back in May, they sent us exchange certificates and we will activate them on our trip in September, but why are all of the other AP holders getting the "Mickey Monitor" ? What is it, and how can I get one? I am jealous!

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

You will get one monthly. It is a little magazine that gives you the 411 on what is up for AP holders.

It will make you want to go to WDW and use your AP

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

I had an AP for a whole year and never, ever got one.. I was told I had to go online and download it from the official site after signing in under my AP. Is that still true tigger or have they changed that? or better yet, was I given the wrong information? I never really bothered with it..lol

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

I am sorry to hear that Dana because MM is so much fun. We have gotten one every month we have had our AP.

I only have experience with MM over the past 9 months... 9 months I can't believe it!

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

I also had an AP for a whole year and didn't get a single Mickey Monitor. The funny thing is, once my AP expired I got a Mickey Monitor!

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

I had an AP a couple of years ago and I got the Mickey Monitor, but DEFINITELY not every month! Maybe quarterly...

That's what I was thinking. And since we gotten ours just after the winter issue came out, we waited three months before we got our first one.

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

This is our second time with the PAP's and we have only seen
the moniter once. Has anybody gotten into the passholders
page? I can't get in what ever I do.

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

The Mickey Monitor comes out quarterly. If you don't get one,call the AP hotline and ask them to send it. If they give you the song and dance about downloading it,just tell them you don't have a computer and you want them to mail you a copy. The first year I was an AP'er,I had to call the hotline every time I knew the Monitor was coming out to get one until I guess my name was in the computer.

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

We've never gotten one either. I just assumed it was because we weren't in the USA.

However, we seem to get at least one piece DVC related mail a week.

Re: We bought AP's, but what is the Mickey Monitor?

This is going to be our first time purchasing an AP. What does the pass actually look like? Do you keep it as a momento when it expires?
