Sponsorship Of Annual Passports

[jones721]

Off to Disney in 3 weeks and will be able to get 15% discount off APs with my shareholders card. Does anyone know if you can get any additional discounts if you purchase 4 annual passes (same family) like you used to be able to get?

If not, would anyone be willing to sponsor us for 10% off our APs.

Thank you

Tracey (new to the board)

Unfortunately you cannot combine shareholders discount with sponsor discount, so you will have to choose between 15% shareholder or 10% sponsor.
If any of your party are under 7 then you can get a free Dream AP with every adult AP purchased.
For family discount you need 5

BTW post #163 will be of interest regarding PMing.

Hello

Just a quick question-

My family and I are going in January. There are four of us, all adults, none of us have had annual passes before. We cannot get BOGOF or the 5 person discount.

Can I get one sponsorship from the Dis, go in and get my annual pass, and then sponsor the other three members of my family on the same day? Is this allowed? And has anyone had it work?

Unfortunately no, since you have to wait a while before you can sponsor. But you can get a sponsor form from someone and get 10% discount on the for of you

Milia you need to have your pass a month before sponsoring. When in January are you going ? I would sponsor you all if it is early as we might be going then and I can then get my pass upgraded at the same time.

I would need to use my pass and My Mum's to capture all 4 of you but my Mum's expire's in early January.

Thanks guys, I thought that was the case. We won't know for definite when we're going until end of august, but likely dates are 2nd-5th january. Would be good to get the 10% off

Well if you'd need 5 APs, it would be possible.

Disney says:
"The discount granted to Shareholders Club members on Park Passports can be combined with the family reduction on Fantasy and Dream Passports for the purchase of different Passports for a single family, same address, upon the general conditions of Annual Passports"

and:
"Pour l'achat simultané de 5 Passeports Annuels Dream* et plus pour une même famille (même adresse) : Bénéficiez de 20% de réduction"

You'd have to compare what'd be better: getting a 5th pass if your family is that big, or even get free APs for your kids (I think the offer's still valid?).

Have been offline for a while, I might not be pretty up to date, but for the combination thing, I just wanted to state how it's working.

But I can confirm that you can't combine Shareholders and Sponsorship (parrainage).

But as the OP's family is only 4 family discount is not appropriate

That would be fine Milia

Let me know if you book and I'll send you the forms.

I'm planning to go to Disneyland Paris at the end of August, I'm planning to get an annual passport as I'm planning another trip the early part of next year. I'm travelling with my sister & her 5 year old daughter. My sister isn't planning another trip so is just going to get normal passports for 2 days, am I right in believing that they are doing free passports for the under 7's when another annual passport is purchased.

Also would someone be able to sponsor me for an annual pass ,or could I not use a sponsored annual pass to get a free under 7's pass.

 

[diamond57]

I believe that you cannot use a sponsorship and get the free child AP - from reading other threads.

If you do wish to get sponsored, please let me know and I will send you the forms that I have.

 

[BONITATIME]

You can't combine the 2 offers.

Just moving this over to sponsorship thread

 

[disneyangel]

I would check out the prices but I'd imagine it'd be cheaper for your sister to buy an annual pass and get her daughters free even if she's not having another visit than to buy the two - two day passes. You could then get diamond57 to sponsor you so you get 10% discount.

I also got my unused forms back from MandyMoo. I am going in 12 days. Has anyone tried hanging round the passport office to see if anyone needs sponsorship? Or does that sound really desperate?

Hi

It sounds desperate, but did you try it? I only need to sponsor 3 more people and we can upgrade all our passes in October.

Agree that this is the cheapest option for the sister, but I would think the cheapest for you as a group would be for 1 adult (oreodisney?) to buy an annual pass and get the daughters pass free and then you might be able to use the annual pass to get cheap entry for the other adult - or for two days you may even be able to find a 2-day adult hopper on Ebay? I am sure that your sister would be pleased to give 10% of the annual pass in order to get entry for the daughter which means you aren't paying more than necessary

Even with sponsorship the annual Fantasy pass for an adult is dearer than 2 days.

I think the sister will have to buy annual pass to get kids free one as they check the child's passport so will be looking for the adult to be a parent (same name/address etc).

I hadn't thought of ebay that's another option

I still think a one annual pass for an adult must be cheaper or around the same price as a two day pass for an adult and a two day pass for a child and you get the additional discounts in shops/restaurants

 

[maleficent_man]

Just adding myself to the list, if anyone needs sponsorship then I have 2 AP's at my disposal should anyone need to get the 10% off.

Hello everyone

I can sponsor three passes that will be purchased after July 29th (my 30 day waiting period). Please PM if you are interested.

He he.. funny thing.. for those going *before* July 31th you may contact me instead -- i'm not in my waiting period, but in my "close-to-expiration" period, and would be magically happy for an extra month or four (because i can't go in July).

So if someone's going just going in July and needs a little saving -- let me know!

Thanks and always have fun at the resort!
