Annual Pass Question...help Please

[Mom2Four]

HI...I am quite confused. My 3 kids and I have booked thru AAA for 5 nights at the POly in May, and we are on the dining plan. We plan to return to the World in September for another 5 nights. Also, we will be heading back down next March or April. Does it make more sense to buy the AP? I understand that there are pretty big hotel discounts for annual pass holders....but can we still take advantage of the dining plan even though not on a package?? And how do you book these things seperately?? I hope I don't sound too stupid!! haha....thanks for any suggestions!!!

If you call and ask them to do the math they will or you can go to the DIS's tickets page and do the math yourself. We ended up getting th AP because we are heading back in Nov. For the 5 of us we save $400 on AP over buying length of stay tickets, but the plus is that we were able to rebook our room and got the boardwalk for April 15 - 22 for $259/night and added the dining. Cancelled the original res for a week at the polywith tickets and dining and are saving $800 including the price of the annual pass. It was a huge savings for us and we will get at least two trips maybe even a third next Feb or March. Its at least worth a try you may even get AP rates for the May trip.
