I pre-ordered our APs this past spring before the price increase, planning to use them next June and the following May. However, after looking over our finances, I think it may be best not to go next year. So my first question is, if I decided I don't need the APs at all, how do I go about refunding them? Would I just mail them back and ask for a refund, or would I call and have them refund it over the phone?
Second question is regarding if I end up keeping them. Since I fully intend to go back after skipping a year or two (or even three, if necessary), I am somewhat inclined to hold onto them since I already bought them this year prior to the price increase. Each year that we don't go, I am beating that year's price increase, not to mention just having a good chunk of those two future trips prepaid when we do decide to go. But my son just turned 7 in May. I bought two adult passes and two child passes (age 3-9). It may be that by the time we go again, our son may be over 9. Or he may be under 9 on the first use and over 9 on the second use. Would this be a problem? I would not imagine it would be because we paid the exact same amount for all 4 passes: $611 a piece. So there was no price difference between an adult pass and a child pass, so I would not think there would be any honesty issues with using an under 9 pass for my son, if he is over 9 at the time. If he is over 9 whenever we go next and have him redeem his AP voucher, would I just tell them at the time and they would give him an adult pass? What if we went one year when he was still under 9 one year and then the next year, he would be over 9?
