USS Arizona Ticket Question
 
I purchased six tickets for October, but could not put the names on the tickets of the other five people going with me. Is it ok that all six tickets with different QR codes have my name on it, or should I just spend the dollar handling charge apiece and purchase the other five tickets separately? Mahalo

Has anyone on Fodor's ever been to the USS Arizona? It seems improbable that nobody here has gone. Unfortunately, there is no one who answers a phone there (all recorded messages) and nobody has returned my email. Oh well.

If this is the Recreation.gov website that we are talking about, it does say 'tickets are nontransferable". Rather than risk it, I would just spend the $5 to get individual tickets for everyone.

PS I have no knowledge if the gate attendants actually have time to look at names.

We went to the USS Arizona many years ago. Very sobering. We bought tickets when we arrived back then.

Hard to do now, because they sell out in advance. Finally got a hold of someone at the National Park system (it seems the actual Pearl Harbor site people are not adept at returning emails). They said we'd be fine if I show up with the group, so if I don't fall off Diamond Head we should be good to go.

Good to know.

Husband and I went last year. Got the day before tickets on line. My name was on both tickets. They don't check.

Thanks Surfergirl. I'm feeling more confident now with your answer.

This is great to know! I'm planning to go next month

I was told that the "non-transferable" clause is to stop tour companies from securing extra tickets to use to sell seats on their tours.
