Annual Pass Question...

[Harters2WDW]

So, we are going to WDW this summer for 10 days (DH, DD7, DD3 and myself). We will likely go again for our spring break in March 2014 (eight days). Does it make more sense to do an Annual Pass if we plan to do both -- obviously if we get the pass we would definitely do both! We usually don't add park hopper, but would use it if we had it.

Thanks for input!

The current prices for a 10-day base adult ticket is $318. An 8-day is $298. An AP is $574, so you would save a little money just on admission, plus you'd get park-hopping priviledges. And that assumes that ticket prices wouldn't increase, while I imagine they will between now and 2014.

You also would save some money if you can book AP rates for your 2014 trip. Plus you can save 10% at gift shops with your AP.

If you don't like the DDP but do like to eat table-service a lot, you'd be able to buy a Tables in Wonderland card which saves you 20% off the cost of most table-service restaurants and a few CS restaurants, including alcohol, if you enjoy an adult beverage with your meals.

With just the price of admission, I'd say it's worth it, but when you factor in other discounts, I think you'd definitely come out ahead.
