purchasing tickets/AP question

[threeh]

Hi all. This is my first trip not having a package where everything is bundled together so please forgive. It is my first trip as a DVC member (woo hoo).
I purchased 8 day tickets for the family, I made them will call, I'm figuring I can pick them up on arrival?? They don't limit how long they will "hold" tickets do they?? I know I've done will call for Halloween and Pirate parties but just wanted to check.
Now I bought myself an AP. It will come as a certificate and I will redeem it when I get to WDW and be activated then or do I get the actual AP??
Thanks a ton!! :mickey:
Have a magical day

I don't believe there is any limit on how long they'll hold tickets, so I think you're fine.

As far as the annual pass, they'll send you a voucher that you'll turn in for the actual pass. You'll have to do the exchange at one of the parks or Downtown Disney.

As an FYI, for your DVC annual passes you can just walked up to the window and purchase them. You just show them your DVC member card and ID and you're all set.

I can never remember to order them ahead of time so we're always buying them at the window.
