TICKET SAVINGS FOR DVCers

[ILIKEWDW]

Hi, I am wondering on wich would be the best deal for us, we bought DVC last week , we are a family of six and I would like to know how could I save the most on tickets if we are going only once per year.

TIA!!!

Your best bet would be to try to structure your trips so that they fall just within 366 days from start to finish. So, in your first year, go in late June, but your second year, go in early June. Then, you can use one set of Annual Passes to cover admission for both trips. And, APs are the only theme park admission media discounted for Members.

Great!!!

Thanks so much!!!!

I was planning on being the first year on September, then the second in June, so that will be GREAT!!!

We arrive this Sunday and pick up our annual passes. We will return in Nov 09. We will re-up the passes next year then if 2010 buy new passes. It works out cheaper than to renew every year. Unless your making several trips a year.

We got our PAPs last year about mid-June. This year we are going in late May. Two years on on PAP.

We bought our 2 AP in early May 08. Then DH and I took our twin 4 yr. old gkids in Sept. Now, we are going again with DD, DSIL and twins in January. So we feel like we have made good use of our 2 APs. Now, if I could just figure out a way to convince DH for another trip again in April before we need to renew. But I know, it's not nice to be greedy.

Disney greediness is okay

Does this mean it's not in the same category as the "I wants"? Our DGKids look at each other and then say, I know-no more I wants.

It's a "cheap trip!" (or the magic of DVC)
You can access the points you're paying for, already. and you already got theme park admission. All you have to do is pay for transportation and food!
