U.S Disney Parks Annual Pass?

[DSNY4ever]

We got DL AP's once and it was wonderful

We also went to DL and WDW in the same year once- yes we were incredibly spoiled. But I don't think we would ever be able to go to both parks more than one time each in a year to make it worth it. I think the cost of a regular 3 day disneyland pass and a 7 day WDW pass would still be cheaper.

I guess I am a cheap skate, but my max would be $100 over WDW AP price at the time of sale to have access to both parks.


It would be neat if a WDW AP would also cover DL admission right now.

I'm with you. $200 MAX more. I think if they had it where you'd have to pay $800 for both, that's just way too much. Considering the only people who would buy it wouldn't be frequenting both parks ever day.

In case folks missed it - the price for the all parks AP is $700!

For us that's way too high. We just renewed our WDW AP's at something like $388 (DVC discount). So when (if) we go to DL we will just have to settle for the ruf of the mill day guest rate.

Well, one thing about them is they are the equivalent of a premium pass at WDW - water parks, DQ and the golf course included. So its $155 over the regular Premium AP price ($280 over DVC price). So if you are premium AP person, it actually sounds like a better deal.

But there are no plans for a DVC discount - yet.

That would be my issue as well. How many people would visit CA and FL enough to find it appealing, well except for Ros....

Ros is the traveling women.

With hindsight, I was thinking this might have been a good thing for me from April 2009 - April 2010.

Hmm. This is an intriguing idea My WDW AP is a DVC renewal so it is around $340. A DLR one day parkhopper is $97. So I'd probably need 5 DLR visits to make this work out (in my mind, not necessarily in the true monetary sense). Most of my Southern Calif. trips are for business so I can't always count on having time to visit DLR. Although, as I've learned with my WDW AP, having one seems to justify visits on the warped logic that park admission is already paid for

If they would have had something to the effect of "for an extra $100 per ticket" kind of deal I think people may have jumped all over this.

I wonder what % of people who visit the park actually are able to hit both WDW and DL in one year.

Agree Drake. That would have gotten me to jump for it and maybe actually planned a trip to DL. As it currently stands there's no incentive for me to do the long flight out to to the left coast. I'll probably wait for another couple of years before doing a DL trip.

It's been posted on the Disney Parks blog that anyone who currently holds APs for both DL and WDW will automatically be upgraded to the new dual park AP with an expiration date of the later of your two passes.

I have APs to both parks right now, my DL one expires in about a month, and my WDW pass expires April of next year. So it looks like Disney is giving me free admission to Disneyland for the next year!

While I'm thrilled to be getting this new pass, I'm not sure I would pay for it year after year, even though I do visit both parks regularly. I always buy the Disneyland So. Cal. or Deluxe passes depending on what I can afford and if there are ant deals available, and I use the DVC discount on my WDW AP. So between the two I don't think I ever spend more than $700.

We are still thinking about it as well. We have never been to the water parks at WDW and we try to visit at least once a year but we are at the Disneyland Resort all the time.

I received the voucher for the new pass today! It is the Disneyland type plastic pass. It doesn't have my picture on it though. I'm so excited!
