Here's what I've learned so far from my phone calls to Disney reservations:
We had a 6-night ressie in Dec. at PO-R with
AAA rate, no tickets: $743.00
Would be purchasing 5- 5 day base tickets: $1096.05
Total for rooms and tickets: $1839.95
If I switched to the package with 5-5 day base tickets, total is $1733.73
So we would have saved just over $100 with the Disney Visa package rate. We decided not to switch, just because switching to a package changes the payment and cancellation policy, and it wasn't worth it to us.
I also got a price at AKL. We would need 2 rooms, but my mom is coming so one of my kids could stay in her room. 6 nights in a standard room at AKL with 4-5 day base tickets was $1993.20. 6 nights in standard room at AKL with 1-5 day base ticket was $1353.87. 6 nights in standard room at AKL with 2 - 5 day base tickets was $1566.96. So the difference in adding an extra 5 day base ticket was $213.09, which discounts that ticket $6.30. The CM I spoke to did say the tickets were discounted slightly in the package.
However, I didn't change anything because I would really like to upgrade to WL, but nothing available - with AAA discount or Visa package. Wonder what's up in December at the WL??
Hope this helps!
