Well, I just got off the phone with a lady at DL Reservations, and this is what she told me.
1) The current AP Rates are $129 Sun-Thur, $159 Fri-Sat.
2) I cannot reserve the room at those rates unless I am a current Annual Pass holder.

So, after calling the ticket folks and having the wonderful lady there do some checking, I called back to DL Reservations, and spoke to Linda, who took care of my vacation needs.
First of all, she quoted me rates of $129 Pool View, $159 Park View, $204 Pool Concierge, $224 Park Concierge. I asked if the rates were different for weekdays versus weekends, and she said they were not.
So for me at least, it came out to $129 for each and every night. Hmmm
Secondly, she never asked if I was a current AP holder or not, and just told me I needed to show my AP upon check-in to get that rate. So, I didn't even have to lie to get the discount. As long as I have the AP in my hand at the time of check-in, all will be well. If not, I'm sure we'll be paying "rack rate", which could be as much as double.
So anyway, thank you for allowing me to stumble upon these rates!
By my calculations, we'll be getting the same room PLUS Premium AP's for about $850 LESS than what we were going to pay for the discounted Room and 6-Day park passes package that we had reserved!
And that was even after doing research and determining that the package was a good deal when compared to a room and tickets booked seperately using the DC discount.
So anyway, there's my 2 bits.....
scrolls up and reviews his post.....make that about 250 bits.
