DLP Bronze Annual Pass help please - I'm confused!

Hello,

We're going to DLP in September, and have discovered that the Bronze annual pass is only €25 more than the 4 day ticket that we were planning to buy. My question is about the reservation system as for the Bronze pass it says the following:

*Important information for Bronze Pass holders: For a first visit of 2 consecutive days, please note that you can only register the second date once you have entered the Disney Parks on day 1.
In addition to this, it also says that there is a limit of 3 simultaneous bookings, so 3 days, but we're planning on going for 4 days, Tues - Fri.

So, does this mean that we can only register for day 1, and then once we're in the park, make further reservations? Could we make all 3 days, or still only 2 days, followed by 1 more day? It's not peak time, so don't think the park will reach capacity, but just want to get a better idea of how it works please.

If anyone can shed any light on how this works, I'd really appreciate it as I'd hate to buy them and then discover that we can't visit on the days we are planning.

So does that mean if we book to go on Tues, Wed, Thurs, that we couldn't get up on Friday morning and book for that day if there's availability? I can't work out if it only allows 3 days at a time to be booked, then subsequent days can be booked daily, or if it stops you booking an additional day on the day even if there's availability, meaning you have to take a 1 day break after 3 days, and can then register to go again.

I’m also getting the bronze in September.

From what I’ve read I’ll be ordering the pass online (on the French site) around a week before I go and it’ll be valid straight away. I can also then book 3 park days.

After midnight on the 1st day in the park, I can book day 4.

Basically you can only hold 3 reservation days at once.

The quotes you have given are if you buy the pass over the phone or in the park.

That’s how I understood it from my research a few weeks ago. I did put a post up here and someone replied.

You’ve made me take another look on the French site and there’s an asterix on the bronze pass. So I agree about there’s a restriction on initial bookings. Not sure if it means you can book say Monday, Wednesday, Thursday. But not the 1st consecutive day (Tuesday) until you’ve entered Disney on the Monday (or 00:01 Tuesday as I’d read previously).

Or whether you can onlu book the Monday initially. I’ll be buying mine around 15/16th to use the week of 23rd September.

We're the week before you, so arrive on 16th September. It's just a bit ambiguous, but hopefully someone will know. Interesting to know you can buy it in advance on the French site though.

I bought the old (cheapest) pass from the French site too last feb. It came in the post a week or so later and was valid from then. I could book the 3 days once I had the pass.

I might end up buying mine a bit earlier as my son turns 4 next July and will be going to school in September. I didn’t realise when I was planning another sept trip next year. So I may end up buying mine around the 6/7th.

We just came back and my daughter got this pass.
So we bought it at the gate ,
They gave us a letter to get in the first day (not sure why but the pass didnt scan at the gate) , person came along and let us in without even looking.
Once in the park we booked the next 2 days but could have booked a 3rd as 1 was still showing .
Had no problem with availability,
We have the next tier up pass and that was slightly different in that they booked all our days for us when we purchased the pass. (so that day and next 3 )

All in all its a much quicker / simpler process than before.

Thanks for the info. I think I read somewhere buying on the gate meant you couldn’t use it until the next day, which sounded strange.

Thank you, that's really helpful.
