I have kind of a weird/complicated question. I am going on a trip the Nov. and staying at HoJos. They have the discounted rate for Entertainment card/Annual passholders of $59 for all 7 of the nts we are going to stay.
So here is where my confusion has been coming in. We are buying 6 days hoppers, but I was thinking about upgrading to an annual pass since it is only like $85 more (unless they make a better promotion for Nov) and that way I can have an excuse to come back soon. But then we would not be able to go in for MM one day. I guess this is no big deal, but I love me some Fantasyland, and this is a good opportunity to ride all the rides early.
I also like the idea of an annual pass because I think you get a 10% discount on food. We like to eat one meal a day at a sit down (will do Blue Bayou once) and will probably do a couple of character meals. So I will probably almost make my $85 back.
So I have been stuck not knowing which one to do. So today I thought of a plan.
I will buy us 6 day hoppers ahead of time. Use the first MM available when we get there. I think they are on Saturday? I can't remember now. But we arrive Fri afternoon. Then after we have used the MM, I will upgrade my pass to an AP, so I can get the dining discounts the rest of the time we are there. I can get an entertainment card for cheap, and use that for the rate at HoJo.
Does that sound ok, or am I doing something wrong. I don't want to be sneaky or anything, but I thought maybe that was just a creative way of getting the most out of my money. Will the food discount be good for both my son and me if we are together with one AP? or does he need an AP also to get a discount?
Thanks so much for your help.
