I have a quick question for you MW. Earlier today i purchased my first annual pass. I haven't gotten the email with the 'eTicket' even though it said i would "within minutes" I'm just wondering how long it usually takes. Thanks for your h More...
I hear it's taking a lot longer then a few minutes . 12 hours for my friend 😖So don't worry . Everyone is trying to renew right now! - My_HappyPlace65.6 #3533 5-21-12 9:56PMLike Reply
I'm back on MW, I had a question for you guys. Have you heard of any specials on the DL hotels for summer?
There is an AP discount! Summer is usually highly priced because it's a popular season for out of towners so that's probably your only chance at a discount... - cynDOLEwhip745.3 #138 5-5-12 2:02PMLike Reply
Don't they come out with specials like "stay and extra night for half price" I know they had something similar 2 years ago - ingridd 15.5 #5710 5-5-12 2:04PM
They might but considering that this summer is the reopening of DCA, I'm sure they're having no problems filling the rooms. - cynDOLEwhip 745.3 #138 5-5-12 2:08PM
I called a couple days ago and they didn't have any specials yet. She did say that if you make a reservation and the rate goes down, they will give you the advertized rate if you ask for it. - minigirl1156449.4 #278 5-5-12 4:21PMLike Reply

You save more money with premium than deluxe because premium has parking. - SueBayou2012.0 #35 1-15-12 2:43PMLike(2) Reply
Well since we don't live close to disney were gonna be going as often as we can and will be staying at hotels nearby. We won't be needing the parking, but thanks for the tip! - ingridd 15.5 #5710 1-15-12 2:59PM
But without a premium pass, you can never go on Saturdays, unless you buy single day tickets on top of the pass. That was the clincher for us. - Bo22 347.5 #432 1-15-12 3:05PM
Good tip. But your pass gets you no discount at the cart vendors. FYI. - WeMetAtDisneyLand41.8 #4015 1-15-12 3:14PMLike Reply
Yeah I think we're planning on gettin deluxe. If we lived in LA then we'd definitely get premium. We live in the bay area... So we're just gonna plan around the block out days! We have our first visit planned already! 😃 - ingridd15.5 #5710 1-15-12 3:18PMLike Reply

What is one tradition you and your family follow before leaving to DL. Personally we go once a year so we keep a bucket and place change/coins and see how much money we get and use that at the parks.
Before the long road trip we get slurpies from 7Eleven and 5 hour energy drinks. The change bucket is a good idea I think I'll start that! - Knik449.4 #279 5-19-11 12:29PMLike Reply

Almost every hotel you stay at around the park is charging for parking now. We have stayed at the Annabella, Crowne, red lion; all charge for parking. The best way to avoid it is to ask if they have a free parking deal when you are reserving your room.
