This will be our 3rd trip to WDW and our first as DVC owners.
we will be doing a 5 day @ BCV and 5 Day Wonder Cruise.
We like to hop around one park in AM; back to pool for lunches and NAPS;
and a diff park for the PM.
we'll be 4 adults, eating at parks/resorts for most of our meals ( in case this helps for any discounts)

?#1 what's our best value for a 5 day ticket plan?

?#2 any ideas for what dinning rotation the Wonder uses for a 5 day?

Hi coachsomer:

Since you are a new DVC owner would an annual pass make sense? How soon do you plan on coming back to WDW after your visit/cruise? Will it be within 1 year and will you be staying long enough. If you have not already done so, I suspect you have, you make want to put a calculator to it to determine your break even point. Also, remember Disney typically raises prices somewhere around August... Will they this year because of the economy? Don't know.

www.mousesavers.com has a nice newsletter that is sent out monthly with a link in to save a few bucks on tickets. I know you can upgrade these tickets once you are at WDW... but I do not know if you can upgrade them to an Annual Pass. I'm sure others will be able to answer that question.

Have a Great Trip,

Mark

prob. only for one year and skip a year.
economy doesn't allow yearly trip at this time:headache:

Right now, a 5-day ticket with park hopper is $272, and each additional day is $3

An annual pass is $469, and it looks like DVC members get a $100 break on the price, so you'd need to do some math to see if the AP discounts would be enough to make up the rest of the difference.

Here's a good page on some of the benefits of the Annual Pass.

Good luck!
