So I've been planning for months to get Deluxe APs when we go this October. But I never accounted for the fact that tickets prices could increase in the fall!!:scared1:

Should I plan on purchasing our APs in Aug and hold onto them until Oct instead of buying 3 day tickets and upgrading when we get there?

Is $20 worth giving up 2 months of usage though? I'd probably wait
 
So would the begin date be the day that I bought them or the day I activated?

If its date of purchase, then no I wouldn't give up 2 months for $20.
 
The start date is the date activated. When you purchase it should list a date they need to be activated by.
 

Day of activation is when the APs start. So I guess the real question for you about the upgrade is whether or not having one early entry morning is worth the AP price increase times the number of tickets you're upgrading. For me it wouldn't be worth it.

Also, keep in mind that we don't know for a fact that there will be an August price increase. It seems completely plausible going by the popularity of the parks and the history of recent price increases, but I still wouldn't jump the gun just yet. There is usually (nothing is absolute) some buzz at least a week in advance of a Disney ticket/AP price increase.

I agree. But I can't find anywhere that they disclose this beforehand. DW & I are going to take DGD again in Nov., and then again next spring/summer. So I'm considering buying 3 DAPs before August. But for the life of me, I can't find out how long I'd have before they'd need to be activated. Anyone?

I really couldn't tell you. That's a question best answered by contacting Disney directly (and they might not even tell you straight lol). When I first ordered my first voucher two years ago, I remember having at least a couple of months between when I ordered it and when it said I had to activate it, but I'm not sure if that's because I ordered it in October and had until the end of the year, or what, you know? Your best bet is to call or email.
