AP room discount and DDP

[mike&amy1508]

Is there any way to get AP room discounts and be on the DDP?

In a word - No.

Just because we are AP holders doesn't guarantee any special resort rates. That's a crap-shoot year to year. In 2006 the well was dry there. The AP does allow us to buy the dining plans cheaper...we do the plan that is a straight 20% off and really appreciate those savings; and the AP gives you other discounts as outlined in the member literature. It's worth it to us

With an AP you can get the DDE card which will give you 20% off most TS and also give you 20% off CS at AK restraunts and resort restraunts if they do not have a TS on premises (all the Values and POFQ). You can not get a discounted room with an AP and still buy the DDP however.

However the dde costs what $65 which means to break even on it much less start actually saving you have to spend over $325. That definitely can be easy to hit...but just thought I'd throw it in.

I dont know that the well was totally dry there.. we got a nice AP discount 65.00 off deluxes in October. Some months were without discounts.

And as far as i know you cant buy the dining plan with an AP room .... for rack rate or a discount.Only DVC can buy the dining plan at a discount with a room only ressie.

What youre reffering to i think is the DDP, Disney Dining Experience, which is a card that gets you a discount as already descibed above.We really saved money with that card, it was an average of 15 -20 dollars at every sit down meal so if paid itself off in about 3 TS meals.
