Has there always been late June AP rates?

[deedeetoo]

I am trying to figure out whether to get an AP. We are going Jun 30 - July 8 and have two rooms at WL woodsview reserved using AAA rates. I have done the math and based on the way I plan to use the AP including DDE savings, all I need is a discount of at least $9/night over the AAA rate to make it worthwhile. But if they don't give any discount, it doesn't make sense.

I know I can wait til April to decide, but I'd rather not wait til then and then have to order the DDE (which I understand takes several weeks to arrive).

Is is a sure thing that there will be discounts?

Not a sure thing, but the last 3 years HAVE had an AP discount for late June:

2003
For check ins between 4/28/03-7/3/03 Annual Passholder room-only rates became available on 4/21/03, exp 7/3/03

2004
For check ins 4/18/04-7/4/04 Annual Passholder room-only rates became available on 3/9/04, exp 7/4/04

2005
For check ins 4/17/05-7/4/05 Annual Passholder room-only rates became available on 3/9/05, exp 7/4/05

This year Maybe on 3/9/06?

Good luck in planning - Disney makes it soooo hard on us, don't they?!
