I have had to show my Fl Dr lic on more than 1 occassion at the entrance.

I don't think this will work. As far as I know, unless you buy in person at the park, you don't actually get a real ticket, but what they call an exchange certificate. This is what I get because I get my APs at a slight discount from AAA.

To get an actual park ticket that can be used for entrance, you have to take your exchange certificate to guest services and trade it in for your ticket. And if your exchange certificate says that it is a FL resident ticket, you'll have to show a FL driver's license.

There may be ways around this, but I doubt it. That would be like getting Disney to leave a dollar or two (hundred) on the table accidentally.

He should be okay picking up the tickets. When I wason active duty, I was a Florida resident and would purchase Florida tickets. My wife had a NC drivers license, but it did not matter when I picked up our tickets at the window with my Florida license.

We did this for our GA friends. But the only thing that may be difference in this case, is we were with them when we redeemed them. I think you'd be alright.
