Admission to international parks as a cast member...?

Post by Melanie » Mon Apr 11, 2011 2:47 pm

If you go seasonal at WDW right from a CP, or even if you were part time/full, does that ever include admission for yourself to any of the international parks (or even just CA Disneyland)? Or do you get any tickets for those parks?

Just curious and I had no idea where to ask!

I believe every Disney Park, except for Tokyo Disney. Don't quote me on that, ask your management team.

Thanks. (:

I mean Tokyo Disney makes sense because I know that's sorta co-owned/totally in someone else's hands or something. I think maybe same goes for Hong Kong....?

Eh if anyone here has gone to any of the parks other than WDW I'd love to hear about it.

Ok actually, it looks like it would certainly work for Paris.

Mainly I'm wondering because I will be on CP Spring 2012, and then go seasonal after that for when I return to school in September. I know I have to do at least a shift a year to stay seasonal, so in January I will make sure I drive down and at least fulfill that to keep my status. I might be studying abroad in Hong Kong later that year, and it would be very cool to be able to visit on my cast member ID!

As far as I know, if you are seasonal you only get admission during the time you're actually working. For instance, if you're seasonal for a year and you come down to Florida to work for two weeks in December, you only get admission during those two weeks.

I haven't been a CM for five years, though, so I could be wrong.

You can use your ID for admission any time you're an active Cast Member, regardless if you're working or not. The year that I was seasonal statused, I used my ID for admission several times and I never actually worked a day.

I'm pretty sure Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea are the only parks that you can't access using your ID (Hong Kong Disneyland is fine).
