AAA benefits/extras???

[lovepooh]

I am hoping somebody that knows about booking with AAA can answer this for me. I posted it on another thread but not sure if it will get seen there. I booked with AAA. In the reservation there were mini golf vouchers, planet hollywood meal and merchandise vouchers, a sea raycer voucher, storytime voucher. I have read about the storytime extra but I don't remember reading about the other stuff. My agent said they are AAA benefits. I just dont' want to pay for something I'm not going to use. Is this what everyone else is getting with their room/ dining /ticket packages?

Yep, sounds exactly like what I got. For me, the only real "benefit" of this package is the AAA parking pass you get for the theme parks. Since we're driving we'll take our car most places and it will be nice to have the close parking.

We also got the Planet Hollywood voucher, mini-golf admissions, storytime, sea raycer, etc. but I seriously doubt we'll use any of those. Maybe the storytime....

As already been posted, I believe that they are all part of the AAA package deal. We plan on using the mini golf voucher and the AAA parking pass, but that will be all. The biggest advantage of booking with AAA was the room discount, saved us $200 for our upcoming trip at the end of April. Have a great trip.

Ditto.....picked up our packet for next month from AAA yesterday.....included all of the above.....we will probably use Planet Hollywood voucher, mini-golf, photopass voucher, maybe even Storytime this year....the biggest benefit to us was the approx. $600 discount we got on the front end when booking with AAA and Disney Visa for our 10 day package....once the Disney Visa reward dollars kick in, which will be any day, we will really be happy.....

I have a Disney Visa, was there an extra discount for using it for your package or do you mean because you get disney dollars for the money you put on your card???

Our package with AAA was all set back in November, then when we got to about 60 days out (mid-Feb.), I called our TA and when she used our Disney Visa to pay the balance, she said she was able to finagle an add'l discount for us for using the Visa, which for us came to approx. an add'l $200 discount, added to the approx. $400 savings via AAA at the outset. I didn't ask too many questions, just reviewed the new confirmation very closely.....

Did you put the majority of the cost on your disney visa?

100%

Wow...thats great. I don't think my AAA agent gives us that big of a discount. I think ours was just the regular 20% off. Sounds like you have a great agent!!
