We're there at the start of November too. Fingers crossed we both get close to the $175 mark .

Suggest you do the maths, at one point 2 trips made it a saving, however since the price rise eariler this year, my calculations made it only worth while for over 2 trips or just upgrading one pass for free parking and discounts.. Don't Forget Ap can only do fps from 7 days before

Yeh not worth it any more. Still maybe worth it for one person to get AP to get free parking/discounts.

Will have to check how much we were in the end but I noticed after we had upgraded (hubby and me only) that when I went into our daughters' ticket info on MDE they were getting a better deal than we had been given! Wish we had done it that way too. They were getting $624 credit for their 21 day tickets against the Platinum plus. We got a lot less and hence bought just the platinum tickets but she was willing to give us a credit against the discount amount on the tours that we had already booked and paid for, so we accepted her price. Still think we scored instead of buying another set of tickets in December and the discounts we have/will receive. Have still to add it all up. X
If you have the chance would you mind sharing how much you ended up paying?
And could you please confirm that your daughter was offered a $624 credit for the ticket and that this was not, in fact, the upgrade price?

I'm sorry for the questions but I'm trying to reverse-engineer their pricing policy and thanks to RickT's photos I believe I've got the 14-day tickets nailed down, but something's not adding up with the reports on the 21-day tickets.

In case it helps anyone, I was just quoted to upgrade 14 day ticket to annual pass. You basically get $480 off the list price of whatever pass you want.

Thank you for posting.
Was this today/this morning or a few days ago? And was it $480 off the list price before or after tax?

It could help to figure out how they use the exchange rate.

It was yesterday in animal kingdom. $480 (May have been $490) off list price. Can’t imagine they would they add tax but it gives you a ball park idea.

Thank you.
This is what I meant with before or after tax. Let's say you want a platinum pass, then they could charge you two ways:

1) $1119 + tax = $1191.74 - $480 = $711.74 or
2) $1119 - $480 = $639 + tax = $680.54.

This may not seem like much of a difference but it's an important distinction when reversing their calcutions to find the pattern they use.

One final question: am I correct when saying you paid £399 for your ticket? This matches up exactly with the exchange rate yesterday.

So I would assume that's the one including water park which is $100 more than the one in the calcs I believe so I would say the $711 is probably the right price for the non-water park version
