Hi,
My son was born on 18 May 2011 and we plan to have the visit and activation day on 10 July 2023 so he is already 12 years old on day of activation.
The ordering form tells me to purchase a child pass.
Is that correct?
Does the date of purchase or the date of activation determines the correct pass type (adult/child)?
Thanks,
Yinon
Hi Yinon,
Yes, the issue date is leading for child passes.
Kind regards,
Daniel
