Using AP to buy discount tickets?

[sn00zn]

My DH and I have AP's and will be taking a trip in November with family members who don't have tickets yet. I read in the AP description that I can get a 15% discount on multi-day tickets for other people. I decided to get the 5 day for 2 deal on-line, but there never seemed to be a place where I could enter my AP number for the disount (unless it comes after the part where you put in your credit card info). Does anyone know if this deal is only good when you buy tickets at the parks? Or can I buy online with a discount? If I can't, then what are the prices at the parks? I want to get the best deal!

I'm pretty sure it is an either-or situation. You can purchase tickets for the % off OR you can use a promotion. I called not too long ago (also an APH) and that's the info I got.

The 5-day bonus pass is only available online (so don't wait to get them at the gate!), and AP discounts do not apply to them.

To get them for $89.95, click here:

If you need 5 tickets, your better option is to purchase them with a mastercard because you buy 4 and get 1 free:

Thanks for the info. I will use that Mastercard deal, since we actually need 6 tickets--thanks for the links.

I didn't realize that as an AP holder I can buy discounted tickets. We're in the same boat. We're going in Nov. with my parents. We have AP's but they need tickets. Do they still offer the 1 day, 2 parks ticket at the gate? Can I get a discount on that? What would the price be? If not, can I get it on the 2 day, 2 parks?

Thanks...
