Now that I can't get an APH rate for my trip this summer I was looking into AAA rates. Does anyone know where I can find what an AAA rate would be for a certtain resort without calling WDW or AAA - is there a list somewhere online? I would really like to compare different options without dealing with a CM.
Thanks in advance. (I tried to search and just couldn't find specifics.)

AAA rates are always the same, so they are easy to calculate. They vary by season and resort, though. During value season, you get 15 percent off deluxe resorts, and 20 percent off moderates and value. During regular and peak, it's 10 percent off deluxe and 15 percent of moderates and value.
So to calculate an AAA rate, you need to know the rack rate of the room. To get that, go here: http://www.mousesavers.com/roomrates2006.html
So, if you wanted to know the AAA rate for the poly garden view in value season, you would look it up and see that rack rate is $315. As noted above, the AAA discount is 15 percent in value season. The easiest way to calculate this is to simply multiply $315 x .85, which gives you about $268/night. If you want to know the price with tax, multiply by 1.115 -- so it would be about $299.

Thanks for the info. Now I am confused. I was quoted AAA rates for 2 different category rooms in the same hotel. The percentage off was not the same. One was 15 percent off and the other was only 10 percent. Should I call again?
