Really annoying to charge more and take away PhotoPass...am I missing it, or are the discount amounts for merch and food not listed anywhere?

Yay! Another piece of the puzzle

exactly, now that we know price for APs, we can start figuring out what we can do.

 

[BebopBaloo]

Thanks, all for quick responses. I was looking at the page with all the 'new' info and not seeing it, so I wasn't sure if that's what it would be.

20% is a pretty big deal - that brings it up to Tables in Wonderland. So if we don't need that anymore, will save that amount.

 

[BebopBaloo]

The problem with the wording 'up to' 20% is that we don't know what it will actually be. Most table service places right now are 10% and it could remain that way, it could even be less. Disney Visa offers the same discount of 10% off many table service places.

My wife and I have alternated AP's often, but never had them at the same time. Depends on if she is going on a girls trip or if I am going on a golf trip who gets one. We then get all the discounts using the one we have current. Works out well to only have one.

That's what we'll probably end up doing. But, if we were able to get on of the cheaper passes, we would both get one and book 2-3 trips to WDW over the year. If only I get one, I don't know if I'll be able to justify a solo trip to really make it worth it. As it stands now, with discounts it could equal the cost of my current park tickets for our upcoming trip. I need to do some number crunching!

If it's like it was before, there weren't many restaurants that were 20%, most were 10%.

Glad I renewed my AP at the 60 day mark which keeps me, if I am reading it correctly, under the Platinum Pass (which includes Photopass) until it expires in October 2022. At least I hope I am reading it correctly. It was also less pricey for the renewals for my husband and I.

So we have 7 day tickets for our Dec trip. I can go to guest services at MK on our arrival day and upgrade to a Sorcerer Pass, right (we are DVC)? And I will be charged the difference between what we paid for those 7 day tax (which will be unused at that time) and what a Sorcerer pass costs? And it won't mess up any park pass reservations we had made?

Where do you find that Chase VISA discount list?

Where do you find that Chase VISA discount list?

The main page of the Disney Chase Visa site lists what discounts they offer, but not at what restaurants. If you look at a particular restaurant on the WDW website and click on 'view discounts,' it will show if Disney VIsa has a discount at that restaurant, or not.

I wish I had some sort of master list, but I'm not aware of one.

I always use this site for discount comparisons:

Gold APs were always a no-brainer for us as DVCers. We would time it so it would cover at least 2 trips, then we would take a bit of time off and repeat.

Now? I'm seriously considering selling and getting out (or just renting out my points, why not make a few bucks?) within the next couple years. I can afford the increases and the nickel and diming... But I just feel beaten down by it after these last several years of paying more and more for less and less. I at least need a long break after Epcot stuff and Tron come out.

This lists other perks, such as the Magic Shots, etc. and there is a popup that I can't link from this page that lists all the restaurants that give 10% off. (I think the AP list of participating restaurants is longer?)

Ah - the double deep dive needed explains why I never paid attention to it......

And on top of that, it's not even included in the Genie+ like in DL. Nickel and diming, but more so quarter and half-dollaring.

Under 10% Off Select Dining Locations, there a link you can click that brings up a pop-up with the list.
