Is it worth my getting annual passes?

[dlpfan2019]

Hi all,

Just wondering if someone with more experience of annual passes can help

We are planning on three trips over the 12 months from Nov 2019/ May 2020/ Aug 2020 with possibly Sep 2020

We would need 4 annual passes- 2 adults/ 2 children

Now at the moment they have discount + free half board on these dates and on our trips we like the half board options as stay either plus or premium hotels

Am I right in saying the offers on currently are probably better for us than the AP/ AP discounts?, I am under the impression that if you book an onsite hotel via AP discount you cannot have the free half board offer so will probably be more expensive for us - unless the discount for staying in S/L/ Newport makes it worthwhile paying for meals

Looking at the AP if we went for it we will probably go Magic Plus so that we have Early Morning etc and AP events - which may mean an extra trip

Any advice greatly appreciated
