Lynn, until recently, the DDE was only available to Florida Residents, but early last year it was also made available to Annual Passholders. Here's a link to the info here on the DIS. You receive 20% discount on food and beverage (including alcohol) at most full-service restaurants. Once you have either an AP, or an AP Voucher, you can log into the Annual Passholder section of the official WDW website and download an application form, which you can then fax in. The cards seem to be taking around a month to arrive at the moment, but if you need to use it before that, they will send a letter which you can use in its place.

Well worth it if you plan eating onsite a fair bit. We saved loads and the free valet parking and priority parking at the parks was a bonus

Don't leave home without it

As this past holiday was very much on a budget, we ate breakfast nearly everyday in the Pop Century along with quite a few dinners. We used it at Chef Mickey's and also at the indoor bar at the Pop and we reckon that it has more than paid for itself.

I've posted a number of times in the past (not on the UK boards) asking how this works, but I've never had a proper response. I know the AAA Diamond Parking spaces are also labelled DDE, but I've never been sure how to access them. Do you just approach one of the CMs directing the traffic as you arrive? Have you ever had any trouble gaining access? What do you say? I know where the Diamond lots are at the TTC and AK. Where are they at Epcot (not that we've ever been far from the entrance there) and MGM?

Thanks!

Hi!
Habving just downloaded my DDE renewal form.There is no benefit to renewing as opposed to buying a new one.Both are the same price of $65...am I missing any other benefit I cant see?

Cheers,
Lynn
