We did a 100 point add on earrlier in the year and got the free cruise incentive which I am excited to go on next month. But the AP incentive is great incentive however they should really let you get all 4 AP at DL if you prefer.

This promotion is good for purchases at AKV also. You can choose 2 passes for Walt Disney World and 2 passes for Disney Land Resort or all 4 passes for Walt Disney World or Disney Land Resort.

I called my guide and he is tryinig to find out the price.

Is it $112 and 4 AP's, or is it like the old offer of $112 minus $17 and 2 AP's.

Has anyone else called yet to find out price?

 

[chiclet]

The price is $112 per point for GCAL (min. 160 points for new purchaser)(min. 100 for members) and AKV (min. 100 points for new purchasers & members). You can either take the $15 per point credit or the 4 annual passes, not both. There are additional credits for larger purchases.

Good to know, possibly a good deal to those who want an AP for the first time or have allowed theirs to expire. Thanks!

But when comparing to the discount of $15 * 100 = $1500, the APs loose their luster:
4 DVC AP renewals will come to nearly the same cost: $366.36 * 4 = $1465.44

My guide called and this deal is not as good as the last one.

This one $15 off 50 pts.
100 pts 4 AP's no money off.

Last offer $17 off 100 pts
$15 off 50 pts.

I was looking for 100 pts so this is not as good for me.

I'll keep looking maybe something better will come up.

I like the offer as we are about to pay more anyway. However, I'd prefer to be able to get the APs before 14 months of payments! That's a long time. wow

 

[HappyGrumpy]

OK, so my guide decided to call us to let us know that as new members at AKL ( we don't own anywhere brand spanking new) we could get 160 points with a 15$ credit pp OR 8 AP'S!!!!

Yes I said 8 AP'S!

OOOORRR

For 220 points you could get $4 credit per point AND 8 AP'S! They are actually vouchers with no expiration. Those were her words! She said nothing of having to wait for 14 months.

Now AKL is not my favorite DVC... BLT is however this deal seems to good to pass up! What do you seasoned DVC'rs think?

 

[donutz022]

The APs are 4 for WDW and 4 for Disneyland. They have a value of about $400 each, making the AP offer worth roughly $3200. On a 160-pt contract that's about $20 per point savings, which makes it a nice deal compared to the $15 cash reduction.

However, note that you DO have to wait up to 17 months before you will get the vouchers if you finance the purchase through DVC and the Disneyland vouchers must be redeemed by June 30, 2011. Fine print can be found HERE.
