March AP Discounts...do you think they're still available?

[CRSNDSNY]

We just got back from a 4-night Disney Cruise and a night at WDW, but were thinking of trying to get one more trip in this March for a few nights. I haven't tried calling WDW-Resorts Reservations yet as I'm not ready to sit on the line BUT was wondering if anyone has been lucky as of late in getting AP rates for any of the resorts for March? We're looking at the week of the 7th.

Do you think we're too late to catch any of these?

I booked CBR last night with an AP rate for a preferred location departing on March 5. They could also offer me the Poly with a lagoon view, AKL standard or deluxe savannah view and Port Orleans. I did not ask about anything else.

I would certainly call and give it a try!

If you don't mind me asking, what prices did you get for moderates and deluxes? I posted this very question the other day for my cousin's trip March 11th, and I didn't get one response.

Any help you could give would be great! Tiger, aka Piglet's Momma

I just got 7 nights at POR with an AP (5 people) for $929.
Good deal I thought!

My dates are Feb 25 - Mar 4

Is there a "magic" word or number I have to give to get an AP rate at port orleans (or any other moderately priced)?

No, when you call tell them you are an annual pass holder. You will need to have the pass (or voucher) when you check in. Sometimes they ask to see it sometimes they don't.

Tell them you are an annual pass holder. Also the code is listed as BEX for annual passholder discounts.

Here are the rates quoted as best I recall....(they should be within a dollar or two). This is BEFORE tax.
The dates I checked were Feb. 26 - March 5:

Animal Kingdom Lodge $199.00 a night standard savannah view
Caribbean Beach Resort $129.00 a night preferred view
Polynesian $386 a night lagoon view
Animal Kingdom Lodge $367 (this is one I'm not positive on) Concierge
Port Orleans $115 (I think, I wasn't too interested in this one so I didn't write it down)

I got the AP rate at Contemporary for $199/night in mid-March.

I called today looking at PORS for 3/22-3/27 and it was not available. Rate I got was $169/night. I tried both FlaRes discount and the AP discount...no dice. But I will keep trying!!

 

[grumpyandbashful]

Just got AKL savannah view for $199 for March 18-24. Standard room was $156.

This is all so good to know. I'll have to talk to DH a bit more about it this weekend. Hopefully he'll be up for it!

Wish me luck!

Thanks! I'll let my cousin know as well! Tiger

We just booked our trip for the week of March 12 with an AP discount at Riverside around $109 a night, standard view. I'm excited to give this resort a first time try!
