WALT DISNEY WORLD
Next week is the Disney training on the 7th and 8th. If you have RSVP’d remember to show up early to get registered. If you RSVP’d, you must go. We had 30 people who RSVP’d for the last one who didn’t go. This makes us look very bad and Disney has to pay for all of the “No Shows”. If you can’t make it, be sure to e-mail your manager to let them know.
We are currently in REGULAR season for one day tickets. “4 PARK MAGIC TICKET” HAS BEEN EXTENDED THROUGH AUGUST 23RD – Originally this ticket was slated to stop on July 30th, but it has now been extended to sell through August 23rd. As usual, all 4 Days must be used within 14 days of the first date of use. However, if the guest purchases it and doesn’t start using it, they must have all days used by September 30th. ONLY THE 1 DAY HOPPER, 2 DAY BASE AND 2 DAY HOPPER GET THE WATER PARK FREE AFTER 2. Remember our Disney incentive runs for another week so SELL lots of Disney tickets to qualify. Convention tickets do NOT apply.
UNIVERSAL
August 7th starts VALUE season on one day tickets. Have you been telling guests about Blue Man Group and Volcano Bay to boost your commission? This is an easy way for your guests to get the most of their Universal experience. Universal is offering a new “Promo” ticket. For any 3 PARK ticket other than the 5 Day or Gifting Tickets(Base or PTP), you will print the “3-Park 4-Day Base Promo” or “3-Park 4-Day Park-to-Park Promo” tickets in Instant Ticket Wizard. This ticket is offered to us at a lower cost so be sure to print these tickets for all guests wanting a 3 PARK 2, 3, or 4 Day Base or PTP ticket. If you are in Gifting, continue to print the 3-Park 7-Day Park-to-Park Gifting ticket for any 3 Park Universal sales.
LEGOLAND
LEGOLAND is having a training session on August 22-24, 29-31 from noon to 2:30. Registration deadline is August 11th. RSVP to monica.cardona@legoland.com with the date you are going. Attendees are invited to enjoy the park after the session and will receive complimentary tickets to return for another visit! This training will be held at the LEGOLAND Florida Resort. Attendees MUST RSVP in order to attend. Reservations are limited; you will not be able to change your date once selected. You will receive additional details with confirmation. PLEASE EMAIL RICK TO GET YOUR PARKING PASS.
Our LEGOLAND promotion (water park free) has been extended until September 4th. Push this ticket!! If they do not have transportation, you can schedule them the free shuttle. This ticket should be promoted to families with small children and any LEGO fans. As far as Legoland and the I-Drive 360 attractions, we have DAILY problems with those of you selling and printing BOGO tickets. Many of you are putting the right tickets in POS and printing the wrong ones, or vice versa. If you are unclear on this, PLEASE CALL A LEAD OR MANAGER before making the sale.

Budget your money! Many of you have made some great money over the summer, but as anyone who’s been in the business knows, once school starts we really drop off. So PREPARE yourself for this and be sure to set some money aside so you can get through the slow month of September
Many of you are getting very lax with your uniforms, and we will not and cannot allow this. You need to look professional! Again, here are the MANDATORY uniform requirements for each team: PREMIER – Black Jacket/Blazer (MUST BE WORN), black dress slacks (no jeans or spandex material), white button down profession looking shirt/blouse (no t-shirts or tight fighting shirts), black dress shoes (no tennis shoes) and nametag. VIP – Same as Premier, but also with the AGS scarf or tie. AGS/Activity Link Team – Black or khaki slacks (no jeans or spandex material), AGS oxford, dress shoes, AGS Nametag. Attaction polos may be worn on SUNDAYS ONLY and the Orlando City oxfords may be worn on game days or one day before game days. Gifting Team – Same as Activity Link, but no polos are allowed to be worn on Sundays. Managers will be checking for proper uniforms and anyone not in uniform will be sent home without pay.
