Okay, so I know there have been a few threads on here lately discussing the benefits of buying an annual pass, but when I asked this in one of those recent threads, I don't think anyone responded. All I want to know is whether or not it is more economical to look into an annual pass over just using CAA (Canadian AAA) to book our March 2009 WDW vacation.
I saw a lot of people on here say that if you are staying more than 7 days a year or per trip, the annual pass actually works out to be cheaper. Why I ask is because we are planning a 10 day trip next March to WDW, staying at the Pop Century resort again. Our recent pattern seems to be to go every two years for a week or 10 days. We have been using CAA here in my hometown to book our trips and the rates always seem pretty reasonable considering we are going in the middle of March during our Spring Break (peak season). If I can book the trip cheaper by getting an annual pass however, I am more than interested. I think I could squeeze an extra vacation in there before the year is up somehow, but not 100% sure on that.
I know I can just go on Disney's site and price the vacation as a whole and then use the AP rates to try and figure it out that way, but I was just wondering if there are any Canadian WDW vacationers who usually only go once every year or two out there, or any other yearly or less frequent WDW visitors really, who still find it is the better deal to look into the AP rate. Just for the record, we usually like to hit the water parks and do PI and DQ and all that too, so I know we would be looking at a premium annual pass. Or is it cheaper to just get an annual and buy separate tickets for those things? Any feedback and price comparisons would be greatly appreciated!:sohappy::wave:
