Here's how the What
Will You Celebrate? program works, according to the official Disney website:
Q: When does online registration
begin and end?
A: You can
begin registering your birthday for free admission on your birthday in 2009 on September 18, 2008 and runs through
December 31, 2009.
Q: Is there any age requirement for online registration?
A: Yes, you must be 18 years of age or older to register your birthday. If
you're under age 18, you need to have an adult in your household register your birthday for you.
Q:
Do I need to register online prior to going to Walt Disney World® Resort to receive free admission on my
birthday in 2009?
A: As long
as you have valid identification, including date of birth, you can take advantage of this birthday offer at the Walt
Disney World® Will Call windows. The reason for registering your birthday online is to save you time.
You won't have to wait while you fill out the forms at the Will Call windows.
Q: What kind of identification
do I need to show at the gate?
A:
If you're age 18 or older, proper ID would be a Driver's License, State-issued or Government-issued
photo ID, or a Government-issued Passport. If you are under age 18 and don't have any of the above mentioned
ID, an original or certified copy of a Birth Certificate is required.
Q: I can't come on my birthday. Can I
use the free admission on your birthday ticket on another day?
A: Unfortunately, no. The free admission on your birthday ticket means just
what it says. It's only good for free admission on the Ticket Holder's birthday.
Q: What
ages are covered in this offer?
A:
This offer is good for anyone over age 3.
Q: Why are children under 3 excluded from this offer?
A: Children under 3 are not required
to have an admission ticket to enter the Theme Parks.
Q: My children don't live with me, but I'd
like to sign them up for free admission on your birthday tickets. Is that possible?
A: Yes.
Q: Do I have to be a resident of a particular
state in order to take advantage of this offer?
A: No. The offer is valid for all Guests, regardless of the place of residency.
Q:
What if my birthday falls during our visit, but it is not on the first day. Will I be able to pick up my ticket
or other options on the first day of my arrival?
A: You can visit our designated "Will Call" windows at any of the four theme
parks to pick up your free birthday ticket, but it must be picked up on the actual date of your birthday to receive
the benefit. Also, other Birthday benefits such as a Special Birthday FASTPAS® or a Birthday Fun Card
must also be picked up on the actual date of your birth to receive the benefit.
Q: Can I upgrade my free birthday
ticket to another ticket type?
A:
Yes, the free birthday ticket may be upgraded to another ticket type on your birthday. However the celebrant
is responsible for the incremental cost and the new ticket may only be used by the celebrant. In addition,
the One Day/One Park Ticket good for 12 months (an option for select Guests) may not be upgraded.
Q:
I am a Passholder (or have a valid Multi-Day Ticket or a Seasonal Pass that I will use for admission on my birthday
in 2009), so I don't need to take advantage of this offer. If I register, is there anything else I could
receive on my birthday?
A:
Yes, you have several options which are available for you to select once you arrive at the Park with your confirmation
message and your proper ID. You can receive:
* A special birthday FASTPASS® badge+ for certain attractions at the Theme Park
you visit on your birthday; or
* A 1-day Magic Your Way base ticket for you to use any time until your
next birthday; or
* A birthday fun card in an amount equal to the price of a 1-day Magic Your Way
base ticket* for you to use on your birthday for merchandise, recreation or fun activities at select participating
locations at Walt Disney World® Resort.
*Ticket price at gate, excluding tax. Adults receive card in the amount of an adult
ticket; children (ages 3-9) receive card in the amount of a child ticket. For terms and conditions of the card and
details on participating locations, click here.
+The number of birthday FASTPASS badges issued is limited and may not be available
after 11am. Valid Theme Park admission required. FASTPASS for birthday celebrant and up to 5 members of his/her party.
