Need advice on booking SPD or RO for our March trip

[Gymbomom]

I was wondering if you could help me sort out what would be the best discount for our upcoming stay. We have a complicated party with different ticket needs.

We are going to Disney on a split stay March 4-14.

We need to book a room for March 4-9. Prefer a Mod.

7 people, 2 rooms

3 people have AP

1 person needs a ticket March 5-9 (5 days)

3 need tickets March 5-14 (10 days)

What discount could we do and accommodate us? Are any of these a possibility?

1. The 4 that need tickets, purchase a 5 day ticket and then on arrival - increase 5 days to 10 days on 3 of the tickets ONLY.
2. The 3 that have AP, purchase S,P,D with room and dining only? (someone mentioned on another thread they did that this morning - can anyone confirm?)
3. The 3 that have AP, purchase S,P, D package and purchase 1 day tickets only - hold onto that ticket and not use it and use it later on to upgrade to another AP?

Or is there another way of doing it that would be better?

Also, can I call WDW directly right now and ask for the Visa discount without the card just to get pricing (not booking)? Someone in our party has the Disney Visa - they don't have time to call, but I do right now. I can get the number if I have to have it.

Thank you so much!

You don't need the number to get a price quote. They just ask you if you are a cardholder.
