Do DVC members get a discount on tickets and DDP?

[pmaurer74]

I saw someone mention a discount on another thread but I have not seen where the discounts are listed.

Thanks!

DVC members get a discount on annual passes, but not other tickets.

Sorry, no DVC discounts on dining plans. But you can buy a Tables in Wonderland card for $100 with your DVC membership or $75 if you have an annual pass.

I haven't purchased my dining plan yet, and I am on RCI exchange, so maybe different, but when I called member services to update my reservation with our names etc, the CM told me there was no seasonal price increase on the dining plan for members.
Can anyone else verify that? Of course, it may not affect the OP depending on when you travel, but it seems to be a few dollar difference.

Yes, that is true.

No discounts on Magic Your Way Tickets (daily theme park admission), but member can get discounts on daily admission to the water parks and select nights of special events (like Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party).

While not a true discount, members don't pay the seasonal upcharge on the dining plans and don't have to purchase MYW tickets as part of a package.

Currently there is an Annual Pass discount. There are also discounts on party tickets (MNSSHP and MVMCP) for select dates. No discount on DDP except for not having to pay increased price seasonally and also you can book DDP even if you don't purchase park tickets for those days.

As with any perks, these could be changed at any time.

(Oh, I see someone else answered while I was typing...and being distracted by my kids.)

The annual pass discount is pretty substantial, so if you are planning on at least two visits within the same 365 day period, you should do some comparison shopping on tickets...you may find that buying an annual pass is cheaper...of course that may also give you a reason for a third trip, or a fourth trip, or a....

Thanks for the info. I wish we could go to Disney more than once per year! If we lived closer maybe.

SO unlike a package... if we were saying say 10 days but only want dining for 7 days we can do that?

A number of members will schedule their trips 11 months apart. That allows them to get 2 trips on their annual passes.

No, you can't do that. You must buy the dining plan for the # of nights (not days) of your resort reservation. The only exception is when guests change resorts and/or room type. That then makes the stay 2 separate reservations, and the DDP can be added to one and not the other, if you wish. For a 10 night stay at one resort in one room type, you would have to get the DDP for all 10 nights.

How much is this discount?

How much is this discount?

Water Park Discount: $4 off adult tickets, $3 off child tickets.
DisneyQuest Discount: 10% off

Disney has announced a price increase for 6/3 so I don't know if that will impact the above discounts.
