    Is it possible to buy annual passes by post or is that only if you are a shareholder or French resident? I remember coming across mention of it some time ago, but can't find the info now :(

    TIA

    if its annual passes with a discount through the post, you now need to have a French residential address.

    If you are a shareholder, you get 15% the cost of each full price annual pass at DLP (you don't need to get them through the post, you can do that when you arrive at DLP).

    Do you know (you are the Disney guru) how easy it is to get shares as I'm thinking of buying 3 Annual passes (2 adults and 1 child) for our visit in July?

    Thanks

    they are expensive for the perks now, because you need at least 100 shares in EurodisneySCA to be a member of the shareholders club and get the discounts.

    this is the current share price -

    and this is where you find the application and shareholders club benefits -

    Hi all-thanks so much for the information on this thread. It's helped us so much with our planning! We're going to DLP at the beginning of next month, staying in the Cheyenne. I've read that breakfast there is pretty horrible with all the shoving to get food. As an alternative, we thought about eating in the park instead. Is this possible, and if so would we need to book? How much is it likely to cost? Thanks in advance for the tips :)

    breakfast at the cheyenne is fine if you go before 7.30am, so if you're intending going into the parks for the start of EMH at 8am, you'll be fine and breakfast at your hotel will be no problem :). Its not the food buffet thats the problem, its getting a table when the restaurant is busy (as its not allocated seating so you have to find your own table).

    sometimes DLP offers breakfast in the park. This is free, its instead of breakfast at your hotel, and you ask for it when you check in at your hotel. You can't book it in advance, and its not always on (these days its usually only on busy times at DLP).

    Not been my experience I'm afraid. Have seen queue's forming at the door ten minutes before breakfast starts :( Then it's like a school canteen free-for-all.

    Thanks for your quick response. We were intending to breakfast about 7, to make use of the EMH as we're only there for 3 nights. Do you know where in the park breakfast could be and if there's any way of finding out about it before we get there? Sounds like a much better idea if it's on.

    unfortunately theres no way of finding out before you arrive if breakfast in the park will be on for your mornings.

    when its on, its at one of 3 restaurants in the main park (DLP decide which one will open for breakfast in the park). It could be Plaza Gardens, Pizzeria Bella Notte or Chalet au Marionette. If you are lucky enough to get it, the best timeslot to ask for is 9am or 9.15am - gives you the quietest hour of EMH for the rides, and then breakfast without leaving the park, ready for ropedrop at 10am, or Studios opening at 9.30am.
