ytou have to pay for pass pass tickets

You do not have to pay for fast pass tickets. You turn up at the ride (not all rides have the facility, just the more popular ones), there is an overhead sign giving you an indication of the timeslot currently available (so for example, if you turn up to the ride at 11.00 the fast passes might be being issued for between 13.10 and 13.40). If the time that is available suits you, you put your entry tickets through a kind of turn style thingy. The machine returns your entry ticket and a fast pass ticket. At the appropriate time you turn up and go to the fast pass queue.

You can only use it so many times in a day, I forget how many 'cos I rarely use them (most of my family are wimps and it does tend to be the scary rides:eek: )

Hi the official height restriction for Big Thunder Mountain is 1.02m (3' 3"), if in doubt check this out:

My 5 year old thought BTM was amazing (although he would not go round again).

My wife on the other hand spent 20 minutes in the smokers corner recovering :eek:

Thanks for the info

My DS is a thrill seeker, he wanted to go on the big one in blackpool in may, he was 3 then too, and i had to get people who worked there to show him that he was too small as he wouldn't stop crying :rotfl: :rotfl:

Hi

Apologies in advance, this is in the wrong place, but I can't see how to add to the current DLP threads.

I am looking at going to DLP for a couple of days whilst in Paris in a week, and it looks like the cheapest tickets are via Disney online, however I'm not sure whether I've found the best ticket. The summer 2008 discovery ticket allows one day at both parks for one day and for 2 adults and 1 child is £101 (It says the parks stay open until 11pm???), whereas the 1 day, 2 park ticket prices would cost me £118. Am I right and these tickets are the same thing, other than the latter lasts a year, rather than a month???

A two day two park set would cost £214, whilst two lots of one day, two park, discovery tickets, costs £202?

I'm almost positive I'm right, and the cheapest tickets are the discovery tickets, assuming I want to go for two days and do both parks on each day?

Am I???

Height, surely.

We are going Mid-September with our 3 year old. I look like any advice regarding taking your own pushchair or hiring one when you arrive. I did read if you hire one you cannot take it between parks, so this may be costly over 4 days in the parks. is this still the case? Also is there a special place to leave pushchairs outside rides? Is it safe? should i take a padlock? I'm not going to leave anything of value on the back.
We have been 3 times before but this is the first time with our child, We are driving to EuroDisney. - -so space in car not really an issue.

Thanks,

Take your push chair.
There's so much walking around the park you will need one.

We didn't take ours for our 3yo when we went (he walked everywhere at home) but decided to hire one every day after the first day. Worked out really expensive.
There's nowhere secure to leave them (just like theme parks over here) but I really can't see one being stolen (again, like here). We never had a problem with our 1yo's pushchair. If you're worried then buy a cheap one just for the holiday (£17 in Argos?) and it would be cheaper than hiring one every day.
