AP prices

[azdisneylover]

Has anyone heard if the AP prices will stay the same, or if there is a price increase in the near future?
Thanks,
Linda

They have increased the price every year since Sept '07, and that's just from my experience. We upgraded to APs the day before they raised it in 9/07, which is how I know about that.

not a huge increase, but an increase all the same.

Thanks! Bumpershoot. I am hoping I can save enough $$$ so we can upgrade our tickets to AP passes! Then we can plan a few getaway trips throughout the AP year!

There are RUMORS that they are considering raising the rates more than usual (per Al Lutz, at least, though in fairness he has been saying they SHOULD significantly raise the rates for probably 5+ years!).

Logically, they MIGHT raise the lower priced APs, such as the Southern California ones, more than they'll raise the higher-priced (Deluxe and Premium) APs. When a Southern California resident can buy a decent annual pass for less money than an out-of-towner has to spend for 3 days' admission, it does seem a little out of whack to me.

Even if there is a somewhat large increase, odds are that the Deluxe AP (is that what you're going for?) will probably still make financial sense if you are planning even one additional trip to Disneyland before it expires. I'm wishing you luck!

Thanks, Eeee-va, We would be purchasing the Deluxe, the Premium, unfortunately are out of reach. We would try get our money's worth with the APs!
