AAA Parking Pass?

[cpicco]

If you have ever used one, is there really an advantage to it? My parents are coming with us and my dad's back isn't great so I told him to ask for one at AAA when he went to buy their park passes and they gave him one. Just hoping it won't be a waste!

What are the differences between the AAA parking and regular parking in terms of getting trams or whatever? I haven't been since 2002.

Thanks!

I have had the Diamond Parking Pass from AAA the last few trips. When you pull into the parking lot of whatever park you are going to, look for a information to tell you where to park. Usually the AAA Diamond Parking is right by the handicapped parking. It is close enough that you don't need to take a tram to the front gates. This is convienent (sp?) if you have strollers (as in my case) or other things that you need to lug to the park. I thing you will like having it. Make sure to tell or ask the parking attendant where the parking is, and they will send you in the direction. Hope that helps!

Oh sweet. I didn't know you could get a AAA parking pass. Do you need to purchase the park tickets through them to get this or can you just grab it for being a member. DH has been with AAA since 86, maybe he can actually use a benefit for the 1st time!

AAA parking at Epcot is the best. It is right beside (not behind) handicap parking. This was great for dinner reservations when we were at another park for the day.

I'm thinking you may need to buy through them to get it but you never know. My dad did as are we and I told him it never hurts to ask. I'll have to see if we can get one too, otherwise there is less benefit to us since we'd still be parking further away without it and we are the ones with the kids and the strollers.
