AP rates from previous years?

[Laura]

I've been looking all over and can't find any website that lists the AP rates from 2004, 2003, etc. I just want to study past rates and try to make my best guess about what I'll be paying per night for my upcoming 2 trips.

I know mousesavers has a chart that tells WHEN the rates came out, but it doesn't list the actual rates. I tried doing a search on these forums and couldn't find anything except the actual codes.

I dont think that this years rates will be the same as in the past couple years. I could be wrong. But that's my guess. Look for new packages to be let out soon.

The rates they released for spring of this year were higher than in the past few years but I did see on another site where someone put together a list of past AP codes. You can see it here

Sorry Laura, I know of no place online to get those kinds of numbers for you. I would have to speak to Pam of Kingdom Konsultants to see if she keeps track of these items in her own files. Did you have a specific date range you were looking for and maybe my poor little brain can remember if I was there at the time?? Belle

Last week in September (Wilderness Lodge)
First week in October (Polynesian)
Last week Nov-first week Dec (All Star Movies)

I have $145 per night (after tax) as my best guess for woods view at WL. $228 (after tax) per night as my best guess for garden view at Poly. And I'm guessing around $58 (after tax) per night for All Star Movies. Do you think those are good estimates for those times of year?

I'm basically trying to figure out how much I need to save per month so that when September comes I'm not a grand short in savings LOL.

oops! Type-o in the last link!

I just went to look at the page I posted and realized I typed it wrong. Sorry about that! I don't think I can edit that post but you can find most of the AP rates for the last 2 years or so on <a href="http://www.magicalmemoriestravel.com/HistoricalRates.html">this site</a>.

I know they didn't have AP discounts in September of 2003. That's when they were doing the buy 4, get 3 free deal and I guess that was popular enough for Spetember that they didn't need AP codes to help fill the resorts. They did have them in 2004 though.

not sure is this info will help you or not, but it might give you an idea. Last year June 6-16 we stayed at Pop and paid $55, this year May 6-15 we are paying $75, so the discount wasn't as great for us this time.

Thanks!! That's exactly what I was looking for. And Pam, thank you for last year's rates. Looks like my guesses might be pretty close if this year is comparable to last year!

Hey Laura, I can tell you this year's AP rates for May werent even close to last years!!! Last years were just shy of 40% it was like 38% off rack rates, this year was closer to 22%!!! I would imagine Disney is counting on the HCOE to bring in the people and as such arent giving as great of a discount!!! Id say plan for a bit more over what you are thinking. Belle
