No one has posted a Sav View yet, but I bet that pin will beat it. I thought about $188 for Sav View with these rates, but I don't know for sure. I just took the same % off the standard and did that for the Sav View. Who knows if that's correct or not. It would seem that most cannot even book the rooms yet.

I should go look at the post for the AKL again and check my math!!

Okay. I thought I saw $155 w/tax for standard view, which didn't seem much less than my savannah view ($185 w/tax). We weren't hoping for an ap code for that (though we're AP holders) cause we figured it would be the same as the pin code. We are paying $265 w/out tax ($295 w/tax) at CR for a tower, and I saw I think $209 for a wing room with the AP rate. Just wondering how good these rates are, if they're normal, etc. We've only used our AP for value resorts in this time period so I never knew what the deluxe discounts were.

does this help?
from another thread

I am so happy. The trip is more of a reality now. I got the AP rate for the Poly at $254 per night GV room. I have to admit that rate is higher than I expected for an AP rate, but still a great rate considering the 354 rack rate I was reserved for.
I spoke with Jenavive! She was excellent.
Ask for code EWY....AP rate code!

 

[Nik's Mom]

I just called too and was told AP codes are not available yet. I'm going to try again tomorrow. I hope I get a good rate for AKL! That could turn a very difficult year for my family into a ray of sunshine.

 

[minijeanie]

well folks calling it a night..

will report tmrw as i will call in morning...

Good Luck to All!

Agree with other post that if they are going to release them tmrw, why not just book it tonight.

oh well..suspenseful to say the least
one good thing,,at least it stopped me from going to the fridge tonight...

now that is always a good thing, as bathing suit season is coming upon us

Based on what I've seen so far (values for $74, mods for $109), the rates don't look to be nearly as good as this time last year, when I think that values were $59 and mods $74. However, with the apparent success of the MYW packages, I can see why the discounts wouldn't be as deep.

I just got off the phone with CRO and was able to book 2 rooms at WL with AP code (EWY) for our trip May 7-15. She was well aware of the code letters as soon as I said I was calling about the AP code rate. Rate is $139 standard room. Rate for POFQ would have been $109 standard room. Thank you to OP !!

I was the one who posted from the other thread. I spoke with Jenavive who was great! I told her AP code EWY and she found it in the system. She did tell me I was the first she was booking for these codes. She was based in Orlando which surprised me because I rarely get a CM from Orlando. A lot of times I get a CM from another city other than Orlando. She got me the code. I would say it is one of those nights where it is completely random on who gets codes and who does not. Tomorrow should be the day everyone can get them.

One other observation. The AP Rates seem higher than last year. I think Disney knows bookings are up so AP Rates are higher for that reason. But we will take it. These rates are still better than Rack anyday!
Good luck to all tonight or tomorrow!

I also tried to use the EWZ code for FL residents and ws told it was not available for booking. When I insisted I knew someone who had booked it the CM offered to speak to a supervisor. Someone from Guest Relations then got on the phone and tried to get me to give the name of the "friend" I said had gotten these rates. She insisted it was impossible as this code has not been released from marketing and they cannot confirm it is even a valid code. I said it would be wrong of me to give them someone elses name and we agreed that perhaps this friend had just held a room in hopes of the code being released.I hope they don't have a big star by my name in their computer for being a pain,although I was very polite and thanked them for checking,etc.
Anyway, I really doubt that anyone has really booked using this code as of yet. I did get the strong impression that it probably was a pending code though,there is hope for us yet!

Thanks! I don't think I'll get much sleep. At least my school's bball team won their game and they are off to State

 

[DMRick]

I'm all booked! Now, lets remember this before the next batch of AP's are due when so many want to come on and say..nope, ain't gonna happen. It did, and right on cue!

 

[caribear]

Mousesavers is now saying AP and FL Resident rates will be coming soon for the dates 4/17 - 7/4.

 

[nanatink]

I just called cro not the 800#. She said April 1st the ap codes would be out.
Why are the rates so much higher this year? With the gas going up so high I would think they would take that into consideration.
The economy must be really doing well.

 

[luvthatduke]

Can anyone tell me how much (including tax, etc.)
you paid for an adult AP if you bought them over the phone?

TIA!

I just don't understand how a supervisor can say "they are not booking those rooms and they are lying." Yup, that's what she said. You guys are all liars

Not just the economy, but WDW in particular. While the price of gas is of concern to you and I, there isn't any reason for Disney to care one way or the other about it. My guess is that the higher rates this year reflect the success of the MYW packages and Disney realizes that they can book the rooms at higher code rates. I'm currently booked at POP for $99/night, so I'll be more than happy to get it for $74 if that's what is offered.

 

[cstraub]

How late can you call WDW? Does anyone have the number?
