    I think most of the hotels will hold your luggage for you on check in day and check out day. I can't check in until 3pm unless the room is ready early, so I will be leaving my luggage while I hit the park!

    With reference to the lockers in DLP - there no lockers any more. These were closed after a few years due to Government security measures, and have never re opened.

    not sure if we've got crossed wires here - I wasn't referring to lockers at DLP at the entrance to the park. The left luggage store is a manned office at the entrance to the park, next to Guest Services there.

    Yes they do that - it's a useful service - most importantly there is no charge!

    I've been pricing tickets today on the disney website. Can I buy tickets through the french site? They're only 40EUR on there compared to £51 on the uk site? And can you buy for 2 days? I'm understanding it as saying you can only use it for 1 day, & then there's a blackout. Really need to polish up on the old French!

    Just wondering if anyone knows the answer to this, please? I'm just looking for a 1 day/1 park ticket, and this seems to be a cheaper option.

    Ive just bought a dream pass from : http://www.paris-billets.com/fichespectacle.php?id_evenement=%206777&date_s1=2011-05-25 for €161 (which is around £140 sterling + £1.50 from my bank) It will apparently take a week to arrive.
    On that site you can also buy 2 day 2 park tickets etc, which I think are still cheaper (€52). I went for the dream pass as I will be there for 4 days/3 nights and it was cheaper as I am not staying in a disney hotel. (I found most of my tips on the disboard site.)

    My Dream Passes came today! :D (I bought them on the 25th.)
    That is more impressive than a lot of UK based ticket sellers. They are temporary cardboard passes, valid for one days use, to be exchanged for an annual dream pass by the 11th November.
    It looks like they were printed on the 13th May, so I expect Stelio Multimedia, (the company ) just bought up a batch lot when they were on sale with Disney.

    On Trip Advisor they say (apparently) yes it is possible to buy tickets through the French Disneyland site.
    In "The unofficial guide to Disneyland Paris" they say everyone gets different prices; if you try to buy from the US site it costs more than the UK, which costs more than the french site.

    Sorry for my ignorance plus inability to read french.

    Can somebody clarify for Annual dream pass through http://www.paris-billets.com/fichespectacle.php?id_evenement=%206777&date_s1=2011-05-25.

    If I'm ordering them online, how do I get the kids' free pass? Do I order for adult pass online, and get them exchanged at the entry to parks to 1 adult + 1 child (5 yrs old) as kids under 7 go free?

    I put the order in, and they emailed me to check about the child pass. (It hadnt occured to me as I dont have kiddies.) So I replied and confirmed that I wanted one for the nephew. (They have tickets through their rooms at the cheyenne, but they might go back again)
    But I think you can add the child free place by scrolling down through the available tickets: it seems to say (courtesy of Google Translate, which doesnt always get it right :D) that you can apply for a draw for free child places.
    I suspect that it means there is a limited supply of free under 7 tickets.

    They sent me this:
    Bonjour,
    Vous avez bien 1 adulte et 1 enfant de - de 7 ans
    Cordialement
    PB

    I got one of the lads at work (who is french) to reply for me, then felt embarassed as I could actually have written it myself!

    Bonjour,

    Nous voudrions 1 pass adulte et 1 pass enfant ne le 09/07/2005

    Merci pour votre support

    Cordialement

    You then take your temporary tickets to Bureau Passeport Annuel office with some sort of ID, like your actual passport.
    http://www.dlrpmagic.com/planning/booking/annual-passports/ explains a bit about getting the actual passport once you are inside the gates.

    Hi All

    I have been reading through some of this thread for inspiration as I am planning a trip to Euro Disney in September.

    Price is a big factor and I have been looking at the following

    Friday - Travel by Euro Tunnel (£100 return)

    Stay at the Explorer Hotel - Friday, Saturday, Sunday (£295)

    2 day Disney Park Pass for Saturday and Sunday (Have seen the link for the French tickets for 52E)

    Monday - Travel back via Euro Tunnel

    I have seen the meal tickets for evening meals and was going to buy them online but where can I get them from? Has anyone got any suggestions for the meals - my DS is 2 and loves Mickey Mouse and Toy Story so we were going to book cafe Mickey but can anyone suggest anything else.

    I am based in the Midlands, can anyone suggest anything easier or if I have forgotten anything, there are 3 adults trveing and one 2 yer old.

    Thank you

    the half board meal plans are additions to Disney hotel packages, so if you're not booking through Disney themselves for an onsite hotel, as far as I'm aware you can't buy them.

    The Cowboy Cookout lunch or tea party are character meals, usually Woody and/or Jessie is there.
