The sign up has a drop down box, with United States, Canada and Other.

Hi

yes it does and if you are a US citizen then they want you to register and can be quite funny with you if you do not. However they have confirmed that a UK visitor does not need to register. Just bring your passport and makes your choice

Thanks for the suggestion.

The 7 day ultimate is $328 compared with $275 for the 5 (or 6) Day Magic Your Way MAGIC PLUS.

Thinking about it, I don't think we will be hopping much (from experience, we've only ever been able to drag our way back home after a day in the park; hopping in any shape or form is probably not very realistic for us).

So really, the main question I had was whether or not we get 5 main park days PLUS 5 water park days (for TL and BB) with the 5 Day Magic Your Way MAGIC PLUS.

Anyone know?
Thank you.

Are you looking to buy these tickets in the USA (as you have quoted the $ prices?) If so then take a look a the cheapest ticket calculator over at https://www.touringplans.com its very easy to use and will help you with your choice as to what is best value and from where to purchase

Hi All

I know many of you listen to Podcasts about Disney and there are some great ones out there like the WDW Today show and WDW Radio Show but there is a great new British one called the Disney Brit. Been out for a while but they have recorded a new episode tonight and yours truly plays a role.

Download it from iTunes or from their website at www.disneybrit,com

I am no Chris Evans but I try my best and the two hosts are very good guys. Also you may well here some of your tips on the hot days in the parks LOL

Cheers
Craig

Hey guys.

Just spoken to the Virgin Hols team to cash in my vouchers (thanks Shop and Scan and Food on the Go!). After doing this, I made an enquiry about the Cirque drop off and was told that it's no longer available. Now, from their general tone of voice it was almost like they couldn't be bothered to check up for me. Does anyone know if it is actually still running? It's still mentioned on their website, as much as the team tried to deny the fact..

Hi, we went in April (on a 2-day Magic Your Way Plus ticket) and you have 14 days from first use to use all the stuff on it. For the 5 day Plus ticket, it is 5 MAIN park visits PLUS 5 visits to the water parks etc

Thanks for the replies guys.

I did a bit more research last night and came to the same conclusion.

However, I'm now thinking about getting the 10 day MYW PLUS passes (which cost just a few dollars more than the 5 day ones), using 5 main park and 5 water park days this trip, and then upgrading the balance to an unexpiring ticket, which I've read can be done for $90 each, as we will return again sometime.
This would be much cheaper than buying the 10 day without expiry option.

Can anyone tell me whether there a flaw to my plan?

the flaw is that you lose the tickets somewhere over the next 3 - 5 years.
This happened to us the first time we did it!

Also check exactly what the rules are for upgrading the tickets you get to no expiry - I should imagine that it is no problem for the ones you are looking at, but others it can be a bit weird.

Finally, I think the cost varies based on the full length of the ticket, so double check your pricing.

Thanks Blink_Eden. For the few $s more for 10 days, it's possibly worth the risks you've outlined!

I've just checked with VH and they insist the Downtown Disney check-in for return flights IS operating as normal (and still free to VH customers), so it sounds like you just got a bit a clueless agent on the line!
