Questions for those who have had APs and PAPs

[jimmytammy]

We have had APs before and definitely seen the advantages. We got 15 days use out of them anyway. So we are at a crossroads again. Our kids 9 and 10 both enjoy water now and 10 yr old swims very well and uses diving board. Both kids still a little apprehensive about going under water uncontrolled(down a slide into water , temporarily going under, that kind of thing). We truly hope after more time at pool will resolve this completely.

DW and I are contemplating whether to buy APs or PAPs. We have never been to Disneyquest and feel we could get at least 2 uses out of that. Waterparks may be a different story, since we will be there in Dec., weather is iffy. We are hoping to go back in Mar. but nothing definite, but will probably go for weeklong trip in Oct.

No doubt we will get use out of APs at 4 parks but up in air as too use of waterparks. Looks to me like you have to go to DQ and waterparks at least 3 times to get moneys worth out of PAPs.

Am I right on this one or am I overlooking something? Please anyone who has used both types of passes please give me your thoughts. Which do you feel like is best value for you and your family and why?

Thanks
Jimmy

I may be wrong, but I don't think Disney Quest is included in a PAP.

Disney Quest is included in PAP. That's why we decided on them instead of just APs. We've used them numerous times at DQ.

Maybe you are confusing it with the plus on park hoppers. The pluses can't be used for DQ.

In answer to the OP, your estimate seems about right but you might want to compare the prices here: http://www.wdwig.com/ticket.htm
