The expertise is barely accessible to randomly chosen Common Orlando Resort Annual Passholders, and we had been fortunate sufficient to get chosen.

Don’t neglect you possibly can all the time buy factors to redeem for tokens if aren’t capable of make it to the parks to select up extra factors.
Personally, our favourite solution to earn factors was the survey. Common Orlando really values their passholders and their opinions and you’ll really feel the love all through the survey questions. We all the time take part in surveys within the park, and we encourage you to take action as nicely. Who doesn’t need to affect the way forward for the parks?

What’s been your favourite UOAP Expertise?
They’re listening! They know the way we felt concerning the finish of the month-to-month buttons! In case you’re a brand new UOAP, you won’t know, however month-to-month buttons had been an enormous factor for passholders and many individuals had been disillusioned when that perk ended. Perhaps we might see this return someday sooner or later. The survey inquires about what perk you miss essentially the most and wish to see introduced again, together with UOAP entrances and Passholder Appreciation Days.
Buttons or magnets? This query isn’t truthful! There ought to be a “why not each?” choice! This was essentially the most tough choice for us to make. Tell us within the feedback which one you’d have picked.
A number of questions concerning the official UOAP Fb web page. In case you haven’t joined, we’d extremely counsel it.
One other tough query. With the UOAP Lounge moving to Toon Lagoon, it appears to be like like Common Orlando is attempting to make some necessary choices. We love being included on this course of. Would we wish to see extra experiences, unique meet and greets, meals choices, or weekly contests added to the lounge? Why do they make us select just one? This survey is so thrilling. It’s a good time to be a Common Orlando Annual Passholder.
We’re going with “10+” on this reply.
On a regular basis. All day. Who’s with me?
That was simple. Now we’re gathering our factors from the survey. That is off to a terrific begin. All the things has been very person pleasant thus far.
If you wish to attempt to attend the unique celebration, be sure you save up for the “My Day Token” at 75 factors. If you would like to have the ability to create your individual digital button or vote for future UOAP advantages, you possibly can commerce factors for the “My Means” or “My Say” tokens. We need to get into that Mardi Gras celebration, so we’re going to go off and attempt to accumulate factors across the resort subsequent.
Once you open the map, you’ll have the ability to see your location. Your present factors are displayed within the high proper nook of the display. This was earlier than we had completed any of the actions.
We opened the map in Seuss Touchdown and noticed some factors within the Misplaced Continent. There was a marker indicating a gaggle of 4, so we tapped the “view in AR” button and went on a quest.
An arrow will assist information you in direction of the bouncing star the place you possibly can faucet to gather some extent. We’re off to a superb begin. We rapidly picked up 4 factors within the Misplaced Continent. Nothing would require you to go backstage or go into any restricted areas, so be sure you keep in visitor areas whereas gathering. Even when it appears to be like just like the star is someplace you can’t get to, you need to have the ability to faucet it and decide it up in any case.
There was a small star subsequent to King Julien, however we didn’t should get very near the meet and greet space to select it up.
We’re going to exit and accumulate some factors! As soon as now we have an opportunity to redeem our factors for tokens, we’ll be sure you provide you with all an replace on our experiences.
