We have been traveling to WDW for the past 5 years. We typically stay for at least one week and stay in a moderate or deluxe resort. As far as tickets go, we typically purchase the base ticket, unless we have to buy the hopper as part of a promotion. I have been lucky enough to take advantage of a few free dining bounce back offers, and one room discount bounce back. I am looking ahead to next summer’s trip and trying to decide if there are any advantages left for maybe upgrading to APs when we arrive next summer. Here is the math I have done at this point: current AP price for 4 (out of state) $4,766.96; 5 day park hopper for next summer for 4 $2,221.68. The difference is $2,545.28 to upgrade to an AP (however I am sure that price difference will be more by the time next summer rolls around). So it is $323.60 more to upgrade to APs over just buying park hoppers for 2 trips (2020 and 2021). I am curious if the AP discounts will be more than $323.60? If there is a chance of saving more, I am going to push my 2020 trip later in July to allow us to use them again earlier in July 2021.
Since we are from Ohio, we would probably only use the APs for these 2 trips, with a slight possibility of using them around thanksgiving since my MIL lives an hour from WDW and we have been visiting her at Thanksgiving the past couple of years.
Anyway, I am just looking for some insight from people that have APs and know the real discounts that they can carry.
Thanks in advance!!!
