Annual Passes

[BecBennett]

Is there somewhere that lists which shops and restaurants and things give you benefits with the annual passes?

We'll be in Anaheim for 10 days in March and I was thinking of getting a 6 day hopper pass, but now I'm tossing up if the Annual Pass would be better off because we'd get discounts here and there.

I've checked the block out dates and they look fine, but chances are we'd only be using the pass for this one trip, as we're from Australia, so the oppurtunity doesn't come around as often as I'd like it too...

Thanks.

Basically you get 10% off all food everywhere in both parks and the 3 hotels EXCEPT carts (ie, churros, corndogs, ice cream bars, etc). The Premium pass gets 15% plus it also gets you 10% off in the stores in the parks and hotels. There are also some discounts at most of the shops/restaurants in DTD like Hagen Daaz, Build A Bear, Rainforest Cafe, Jazz Kitchen, etc.

That is the really basic version. They have the complete list online at Disneyland's website but I think you have to be a registered passholder to see it. They also have the list in the annual pass redemption center in the park so you can look at it and decide first. I would suggest at least upgrading one person to the pass and then use that one to get all the discounts.

Depends how much you will be spending on food. Lots of character meals? Definitely upgrade 1 person and use it whenever food is purchase. Don't forget that the hotels also give a 10% discount on rooms with an AP but if the booking is done as a package that wouldn't apply. AP (not premium) is $239 US so compare that to the price of your 6 day and figure out whether you would save with 10% off each meal you purchased. It really does add up, especially with sit-down meals!
