Hi all, first post! :wave2:

Went to DLRP last August for the first time. Naturally I want to go back again this year! Stayed in Davy Crockett last time and will probably do the same again.

Have spoken with Disney re annual passports and they quoted me prices of GBP92 for the fantasy and GBP128 for dream, both for adults and children. Apparently the prices changed last month. We would be buying 4 in total but discounts are only available when buying 5 or more! Just thought you people would like to know and apologies if this has been posted previously.

That ends my info, but now I have a question. The dream passport sounds good, especially as we get fantasyland access 1 hour earlier. I assume this is the same as good morning fantasyland, but because we would stay at Davy, we would not be eligible, unlike the on-site hotels. So I thought I would offset the extra cost against a hotel discount. Firstly the UK agent couldn't give me current details and gave a French number to ring, and secondly she stated that annual passports must be collected within 30 days of ordering them!! I would like to go in (possibly) May and certainly August, but I'm certainly not leaving my ranch booking until 30 days prior to going, especially in August! (Do you think they'd mind if we kipped in the car park??) :rotfl:

Anyway, (thanks for reading this far!) does anybody here know if this is correct? This seems to imply any possible hotel discount is only available, in a practical sense, on 2nd and subsequent visits, when you are already in possession of the annual passport!
 
Hi Tosty and welcome to the DLP DIS board :wave2:
We are a friendly bunch here os please join in on any thread. If you have a number of questions then it is probably best to start a thread for each one :)
 
When we bought 4 tickets we got family discount. It might we wise to phone Disneyland Paris as maybe CM did know all the details. If it has changed that is a shame.
You can phone for annual passport and they will send you temporary one which you exchange for the real thing. You cannot book discounted hotel rooms through the UK office you need to phone the annual passport number.
 
We bought 4 annual passports (dreams) and had a good discount..ended up paying only 127 euros each. Therefore I think you do get a discount when buying less than 5.
 

The shareholders page on the official website still mentions the family discount but not numbers, :confused3 although it does say only a maximum of 5 can have a reduction.So I hope it still applies to smaller families.
 
Hi Tosty, welcome! :wave:

I've just looked here and although it is in French, I was able to work out that family discounts for annual passes are now only being given for purchases of minimum 5 passes :( whereas previously it was for families of 3 or more. Plus it is not such a good discount, we bought 5 Dream passes last year and got a discount of 25%. It is a shame it has changed. :(

Afraid I can't help with booking a hotel with the annual pass discount as we have only stayed at the Explorers. Hopefully someone else can. :)
 
When we got our APs a few weeks ago the discount was for 5 or more people and it was 103€ a person, but they had to be from the same address. That was for the Fantasy Pass.
 
Thanks for the information. It is one of the few times that a family of 5 benefit :) But I think the previous way encouraged more to buy the passes.
 
Thanks for your replies and warm welcome everyone. Yes, it is a shame about the 5 or more people for the discount.

Does anyone know about having to collect the annual passport within 30 days of ordering one? And would I be able to get an annual passport hotel discount now, even though I can't get an annual passport until nearer summer.

Probably best to just phone France. Did try during the week, but was put in a queue then the line just went dead after a few minutes.
 
I think you'll get on better with phoning France. Let us know how you get on :)
