TiW question

[mommytoxzande]

Hi guys~

I was hoping someone could give me some basic information about the TiW card or point me in the direction of a post that would clarify it. I can't seem to find the info I am looking for, like, Who can purchase it?, How much does it cost?, What places are included?

Thanks

FL Residents & AP holders are eligible to purchase for $75 from any Guest Services window.

Nearly all TS accept it with a few exceptions. I'll see if I can post the list for you.

One small clarification to the above posts. TiW is $75 for AP only, FL residents can buy it, but it costs them $100 (unless they have an AP then its $75).

The breakeven point is usually around $375 (if you tip the 18% normally) or $400 (if you only tip 15% normally). If you think you will be spending that at least that much on food at the listed restaurants, and you are either a FL resident or and AP holder, I definitely suggest getting one.

Another perk is free valet parking at the resorts when you dine at a restaurant and use your TIW card. You just show the receipt with the discount on it when you pick up the car. Don't forget you still need to tip though. So I look at it as $5 for valet parking that normally would cost you $12 plus a tip!

Also, the discount is good for alcohol too.

I loooove my TIW card!
