WDW AP

[Johnie]

The 15 months for the price of 12 is only good for renewal AP's. I renewed mine in Aug and it's good till Dec 2010. You can get the offer a month before and a month after the actual AP expiration date.

You should be able to pick up your new passes before the actual date.

Thanks John We're visiting WDW on the 20th and need to go to GR for DH's birthday voucher so hopefully we can pick our new AP's up then.

It was never mentioned that we got 15 months for the price of 12 when I was on the phone....is this just for US residents?

I don't know. It's not been advertised very well. Though the signs on the booths say that FL resident AP holders get the same deal.

From the Orlando Sentinal:

In a sign Walt Disney World fears cash-strapped annual passholders may opt not to renew, the resort has quietly rolled out a new promotion offering 15 months for the price of 12. It's the first time Disney has made such an offer to passholders, a spokeswoman said.

The promotion began Aug. 2 (the same day Disney raised annual-pass prices) and applies to passes that expire Sept. 1 or later. To get the extra three months, a passholder must be within his or her customary renewal window, 60 days or less from the expiration date. They must renew no later than the expiration date. The offer applies to all types of annual passes, excluding "Epcot After 4" passes.

Disney has not widely broadcast the promotion, instead opting only to contact eligible passholders directly via mail and e-mail. The resort has not said how long the promotion will last. "We're going to periodically evaluate the program to determine how long it will run," Disney spokeswoman Kim Prunty said.

The 15 months for the price of 12 however, appears to only be good for FL residents.

We renewed ours when we were there using our DVC discount and it WAS valid for 15 months. We didn`t have to show that we owned a house "over there".

No, it's good for anyone who has an AP and needs to renew.
