AP rate good for standard only?

[AspiringCindy]

I have a few question that maybe an AP holder can answer.
1) If I purchase an AP Pass but do not activate it until I arrive, will I still be eligible for an AP rated room?
2) Is the AP rate only good towards standard or can I get a suite?
3) When do the AP room rates come out for Dec.?

1. Yes you can use the ap rate without a validated ap. Just have to show your voucher when you check in. Although it has been reported that sometimes the CM don't even ask to see it. If they do ask to see it, you'll have to return to the front desk after validating and show them.

2. The ap rate is good for all classes of rooms, EXCEPT suites. Suites are never discounted.

3. Not sure on this one. If there will be an ap rate available it should be a couple of months before. Although, I'm still waiting on May AP rates.

Hope that helps,
Liz

No problem,

Enjoy your planning. I certainly do. My friends and family think my life is Disney.

Now if the May ap rates would come out, I could relax.

Lizzie, I see that you'v booked concierge. IS the AP discount usually good toward that?

 

[lizzie64]

Yes Cindy it is.

I believe only suites are not eligible for any discounts.

AP rates for the first part of Dec. came out around the end of July in 2002. They were out around the first of July in 2001. Correct me if I'm wrong, somebody!
