We are going to disney world in less than one week. I just realized the power of the annual pass. I went to disney store to get one and they said it would take 8 weeks for the voucher to come in the mail. We want to get the big AP savings for Fort Wilderness cabins and will be there for the week. I thought you could just get the voucher on the same day at the store.

How can I obtain one without spending $15 for an overnight delivery?

Can I purchase a AP at the resort before checking in to get the discount?

Many Thanks,
John

I'm not sure if the hotels sell them, but yes you can get an AP at any of the parks. Depending on how busy they are, we usually renew at Guest Services at Downtown Disney before going to the park. It's less hassle, but if the crowds are small anyway this probably won't be necessary. Just walk up to the Guest Services and let them know you would like to purchase an AP.

Don't forget to find out about the exclusive merchandise you can buy!

If I remember correctly, you can NOT buy AP's at the resorts. Only hopper tickets and one day tickets. You CAN get them at any of the parks, and I"ve heard that EPCOT is the best place to get them, since their Guest Services is usually not too busy (i've never tried this, so I can't say for sure) That's strange about the Disney store still using vouchers. I thought that all the DS had gone to the instore vouchers system now?! Here in FLorida I was able to puchase and receive the pass/card right there. I still have to go to the parks to activate them, though.

If you are flying in, I've heard the the disney store in the Orlando Airport (I don't know the name of the airport)sells AP's. (correct me guys if I"m wrong) They are active passes, and start/are active the day you purchase them. HTH!! Good Luck!
