AAA package vs WDW package

[dudleydog]

If I call AAA to do free dining, should I get a lower rate than by calling WDW? (Should I get a AAA discounted room rate + free dining or will AAA only give me one of the 2?)

I booked thru AAA and the rate is exactly the same.

Why book through AAA then? Do you get any bonus benefits?

The only way to get the free dining plan is to buy a package with the room at rack rate (no AAA discount). I could be wrong but I am 99.9% sure that Disney will not allow the combination of two discounts(free dining and AAA) If it were me I would book straight through Disney that way you have control over your reservation whereas if you used a AAA TA Disney will only deal with them if you want to make changes such as the hotel/room type.

without free dining, AAA can give you a discount on the room portion of the package.

booking an AAA package also gets you diamond parking lot access and a storytelling session with a disney character.

The previous posters haved noted the correct information.

you have a live human to talk to. Also, if something bad where to occur having an AAA travel agent available will help you.

You do get a few perks as previously mentioned. There's a discount card that helps with Downtown Disney, too. You get a cute luggage tag, too.

However if you are going when an event like MNSSHP, P&PP, MVMCP is goind on, they do not do the storytelling sessions.

We were there last October and there was not one storytelling session while we were there for 9 days. So it was a worthless perk.
