Annual Pass Holder Benefits??

[amystevekai&bump]

Hi - could someone give me the low down on the benefits of getting annual passes for Disney and Universal please??

We wouldn't be getting any benefit from buying them to use on multi-trips (as unfortunately we will just be going the once!! ) - but wondered whether they were worth investing in if they give room/meal/parking (in the case of universal) discounts??

We will be looking to book a BIG holiday (hence not going for over 2 years!! ) and wondered whether we'd get any savings on the poly club level or HRH kids suites which might make it worth while buying even just one annual pass???

Have no clue about any of this so any tips greatly appreciated!!

Hi, can you tell me where you found this info on the DDP?
i have been through the AP website and cant find any reference to a discount against DDP, only DDE?

thanks.

Also if you are not staying on site you get to park free in the Disney car parks

I thinks it's called the 'Passholder Package' you need to book accommodation and the dining plan.

I'll try and find more details

ah, thankyou

i think i have read about that - i was hoping that the discount applied to the ddp only as i already have a ressie through DVC.

too good to be true
