Two questions re: AP rates and Priority Seatings

[hcarr]

I just booked for next May at the BC with the AAA discount. I'm hoping for discount codes to further lower the price. I was going to buy a 7dayPHP for each of us - should I consider the AP? I wouldn't be going again within a year so the only advantage would be if I could get a lower room rate with it. Are AP rates similar to the discount code rates?

Also, when do I need to plan for Priority Seatings - what is the earliest? Any recommendations for myself, DH and our 4 yr old DD?

Thank you,
Hilary

You are going during a nonpeak time, so my guess would be that you could probably get some good rates with codes. As far as Ps's, go to the Restaurant area and click on PS calculator, it will tell you when to call for 60 days out, 90 days , etc. Some restaurants book far in advance and you have to call as soon as the window opens. However, there are plenty of places that still have Ps's even if you call the day of or the day before. Happy Planning!!!

I believe that AP rates are usually as good as or a little bit better than code rates. I am splitting my stay, and got a code rate of 40% off for part of it (AP rate wasn't available for those dates) and an AP rate of 45% off for thte other part.
