I've read a number of trip reports where people staying at the AKL receive upgrades from the standard room to a savannah. Does anyone have tips on improving our chances of receiving an upgrade? I see the numbers are in our favor - only 127 std rooms and 748 savannah. I'm wondering if there is an optimal time of day to check in, certain things to say (other than the obvious of being polite), etc. Our flight gets in 11AM on Thursday the 24th of July - don't know if day of week has an effect or not.
I assume it's a short walk from the lodge to the AK - can anyone describe how the two are situated?
I haven't been visiting this forum for a long time, but I haven't seen anyone talking about the value of buying an annual pass to obtain resort discounts. Is that a common thing to do? I am purchasing an annual pass (from the local Disney store) and will receive over $100/night off the room. It will easily pay for itself, and hopefully we can return again within the 12 months. Seems like a deal - am I missing something? Are there other benefits of having the annual pass?
Thanks for the help, looking forward to our 7/24 - 7/29 AKL stay.
