Do you now need to have the AP on check-in day? I thought you used to be able to upgrade any time within your stay and show it by check out.
Doubtful it will be an issueThank you for all this information! Looking at our trip, we can pay only $48 more for me to buy the AP instead of our 2-day 2-park ticket and I can change from the Surfside Inn to the Royal Pacific for only $259 total for our whole stay!
Do you know if I can book two rooms with the AP rate since we are traveling with my in-laws? If so, that makes it an even better deal!
They go above & beyond to make things right for their guests. As with cruise ships, they just want to avoid having a non connecting room with minors & no superving adult as to liability reasons.We have only tried this once with the AP and were told that you need 1 AP per room. My wife and I each had one, but none of our adult daughters do. The person that checked us in said my wife had to go in one room and I had to go in the other. So that's the way we checked in. We had no intention of actually splitting the rooms that way.
I didn't think about it until later, but that would have caused issues with our room keys opening the proper door. When we returned to get our room assignment (after they called us and said the room was ready), I explained to the person giving us our room and she had no issues moving us around to the proper rooms and still applying the discount.
Doubtful you will need the 2nd AP. Please report back if you run into this, even then I’d ask to speak to a manager. Enjoy your trip.The site will let me book two rooms under my name both at the AP rate. I figure I will buy my AP direct from Universal and the rest will get two day tickets from UT. If I end up needing a second AP for the second room, I’ll just have my husband or sister-in-law upgrade their ticket to an AP that day.
Thanks all!
Technically, yes as I understand it. It’s an accommodation to let guests not present it at checkin in the first place IMO, easy enough to stop back at the desk later that day.Do you now need to have the AP on check-in day?

I should have specified - our youngest would have been 21 at the time (and the oldest 25), so it wasn't that.They go above & beyond to make things right for their guests.

I can't seem to find any APH availability during my January vacation. I tried every single night. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Ideally I'd like 1/20-1/21 but I tried every night from 1/14 - 1/22 and found nothing.

Check out day.Quick question - when does the balance of a booking need to be paid? I have three bookings at different hotels over a 10 day stretch, but none of the confirmation emails mention this point.
Depending on which APH you purchased, onsite perks vary. don’t forget to check out all the current ones, dining discounts especially can produce nice savings over the course of a trip.Even with the APs, that's over $700 in savings - not even counting the 2 additional park tickets I'd need to buy if we didn't get APs.
Oh yes, I flash that AP as often as I can.Depending on which APH you purchased, onsite perks vary. don’t forget to check out all the current ones, dining discounts especially can produce nice savings over the course of a trip.
I'm looking for almost the same dates and it's been ages. Very frustrating. We're only staying until the 20th. Last year we went around the same time but had no AP yet, and we did the stay more play more so it was I think around $375/night. But not staying long enough this year to even get that discount. RPH is $434/night right now which is insane.Is there any rhyme or reason to when APH rates are released? I need to book for Feb 17-21; I've been checking for a few weeks now but the latest date available is still Feb 13.
