Which restaurants (shops?) at Universal give a AAA discount? I tried serach, but I can't get it to work.

Thanks!
 
yes, if you see the aaa symbol in the front window, they honor it.
ask and they will tell you.
i don't know about bubba gump.
the one in chicago does not honor aaa discounts.



came back to add, even if you don't see the aaa symbol still ask.
i have not heard otherwise of them not honoring the aaa

Which do you all use more...AAA or AP for discounts?

i use my AAA almost all of the time except to buy tickets for hard ticket events.

when the ap rate discount was 15% off food and merch, i used that one.
when they dropped the discount rate to 10% which is what aaa is, i switched loyalty in a hot minute.

i justify my $40 a year for my aaa membership more easily now but using them solely
 
Kewl... Anyone ever tell you that your knowledge cup runneth over?

Does the AAA discount work for merchandise too?

you get the same 10% discount on all food and merch in the parks.
for city walk 10% with the exception of bubba gump, emeril

hotel discount can be higher then ap at times. depends on the date you want.

aaa good for most hotels when traveling, resturants outside of theme parks,
car needs, amtrak tickets discount, target.com, and other stores on line with a 10% discount.......movie tickets bought on line....

it goes on and on.
it probably is a better deal than ap in the long run.

even if you only use it to shop on line for the discounts and the theme park, it more than covers the cost of it.

i used to use my ap for the parks when it was at a higher % off food and merch, since they dropped it down to 10% last year, i started using my aaa solely in the park.
only use the ap for the hhn tickets this year.

the on site restaraunts give 10% off with the aaa card.

i have not come across any black out dates when using my AAA card for a discount for the onsite hotels. and in the past, it was always honored with the loews first program as a qualifying stay.

i had the aaa prior to going to universal.
it's a good card to have for road way emergencies and the free maps they give you for travel. they will outline the best routes for you, even though i still go back and use rand mcnally and mapquest.

i'll keep both cards.
the AAA gives me the most for my money and the APH makes me proud member of the darkside.....
