Called this morning after I had almost accidentally discovered rates were out today. (I've been the type that checks in here every few days, rather than daily.)
Well, my first CM found availability, and almost as an aside, asked me "you *are* an annual passholder?" Well, I told her that our most recent passes had expired, and we would be getting new passes for this trip.
Much to my surprise, she told me that I would have to purchase new passes *immediately* - as in, right now, during this phone call. Since I wasn't interested in doing that, I had to end the call. (Called back, got a different CM, transaction sailed through with no problem.)
I wonder how she would have responded if I already had purchased vouchers, but they weren't yet active. As far as I know, voucher purchases aren't tracked at all, so she might still have insisted I purchase a pass from her.
It will also be interesting to see if I finally get asked for a pass at check-in this time, since before ending the call, she said that she'd note the information in my reservation. It's never happened before, and I've checked in under a passholder rate probably a half-dozen times by now.
