Annual Passes vs. 4 day Ticket

[Rhianna.07]

Hey guys, so my family and I have lived in Orlando for about 15 years and we absolutely love going to the parks and needless to say we've been plenty and plenty of times. The last time we got annual passes was 2013 and it was amazing! We live only 10 minutes away so we usually went to MK every wednesday and went to HS, Epcot or AK over the weekend. Recently, my family has thought about getting the 4 day ticket so that we could be able to go to each park, but then one family member suggested that we just switch to annual passes instead. Which do you guys think would be best? We do go a lot and we would get our money's worth but money is also more tight right now!

At least one of y'all get the pass ... the bonus for free parking would probably break 1 pass even!

If you take more than 1 trip a year (which sounds like you could), you'd break even on all 4.

Money wise - might want to stagger their purchases, if practical to offset the sudden outflow of cash.

If I lived 10 min away we'd probably get our money's worth out of an AP in one month.

As a florida resident you have the option to do monthly payments for the annual pass if that would help spread out the cost over a full year. that might be cheaper or easier to handle financially if your thinking somewhere over the next 12 months your going to buy more non-special ticketed event passes.

It's really going to come down to how much are you looking to go to disney that isn't an event ticket that you still need to buy anyway. don't forget annual passes have free parking so as @bcarey2k mentions, 1 person getting it would save $80 for 1 car being parked on those 4 days you use the tickets. I don't remember if the 4 day pass included parking or not so I might be wrong here and look it up.
