    hi there posting a question for a friend he has been told f he dosnt write the date on his disney park passes he can get his money back is this right

    Middy

    Hi, sorry what do you mean. Are these Disney Ultimate passes? They are activated when first used but only I think valid for a year. So if he does not use them at all then I would expect a refund is possible yes.

    Is there a reason why they need to refund them? Are they not going anymore? It may be possible to sell them or to claim on insurance if there is a reason why they can not use them

    Cheers

    will the theme parks and places like wet n wild and sea world be busy around mid may time?

    If you are going during UK half term then yes it will be busy. I suggest do waterparks at the weekend. As for wet n wild I am afiriad when it comes to water parks thats the last one on my list. BB, TL and Aquatica all beat it hands down. But you can get cheap tickets for it and it you are saying on i drive then its easy to get to.

    Nope. Not if they are used.

    And if they are the Ultimate or Premium type they will expire anyways

    And if they are the Magic you Way type then they are linked to your finger print and so possibly not able to sell them either

    Thanks as always Craig.
    if I can just pick your brians one last time (less than a fortnight now before we hit Ornage Tree) before I go.
    I have just received my 14 days Disney ticket via Virgen in coupon form, where do you recommend I change for the bone fida tickets (and do I need to get photocopies?) near to Orange Tree prior to my first park visit please?
    Thanks in advance,

    No worries and a pleasure

    You can exchange your ticket at any of the parks or at Guest Services in DOwntown Disney. As Orange Tree is nearest to Animal Kingdom I would probably just make that my first park and change it there when you go, The guest services door is the the right of the main ticket gates at Animal Kingdom and it wont take you more than like ten mins extra to swap them there and then you are away!!

    Or if you do not want to head to a park then change them at DTD (you could of course still change them at AK and not go in but it would have cost you 12 bucks to park there).

    HTH and have a great time!!

    Also as you are in Orange Tree, as you come out of the sub division, head north (i.e. turn right) and go to the publix and walmart (and also Clermiont Landings) area for food and shopping. Its a lot less English up there then the Wal Mart at Cagons Crossing (when you come out and go south and turn left).

    In a years time a new Publix will be right next door to Orange tree which will be awesome

    LOL

    The Yanks blow everything out of proportion. I am not saying that Swine Flu should be mocked BUT they way the yanks speak you would think its all over for everyone.

    In fact, I have just spoken to my folks who are still over there and they sain in Central Florida they have sold out of face masks! Give me strength. Just stay away from Piglet and you will be fine!

    Have a great time

    I agree with disney_cjd I avoid wet n wild at all costs, it always seems VERY busy and it is much dirtier than the others (when I say dirty I mean dirty in american terms not english, cos they are very different!!) If you are visitng Seworld then most of the tickets double up with Aquatica, we went here last year and loved it :D

    Hi Atro1

    Yes you can mate. Well Virgin were flogging it on Sunday on the way back as the daft bint nearly took my elbow off with the cart in the middle of the night

    BUT I would say it was much much cheaper at the airport. Really was. Got my father in law (aka our taxi when we got home) some nice stink for like 32 bucks the same stuff was 35 quid on Virgin

    Cheers

    Fags are cheaper on the Virgin plane rather than UK airports and US Airports . No question . 400 B&H on plane £27
