DVC Members Getting HUGE Discount on Premium Annual Pass
I'm beginning to really like this new DVC Senior Vice President Claire Bilby.... She seems to understand the DVC members need to be treated more like "family" instead of cash cows that Jim Lewis treated us as...
Beginning October 1 and ending December 31 2012, DVC members will be able to purchase a Premium WDW Annual Pass for only $399... That is a savings of $300 off the actual price...
Premium Annual Passes gives holders access to all four theme parks, both water parks, DisneyQuest, ESPN Wide World of Sports, and Disney's Oak Trail Golf Course...
And the best part... You can purchase the pass during this time and it doesn't take affect until the first time the ticket is used...

TRICIA JONES: I heard that you were going to propose to Brandi Svenning at some theme park. When are men going to learn that women want ROMANCE, not Mr. Toad's Wild Ride...
BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Does anyone know if this counts with upgrading an existing ticket and/or towards upgrading to a coast to coast ticket?
For example. I have already purchased a 7 day park hopper for my trip this November. When I'm there in November can I go to the ticket booth at some point and upgrade to a WDW annual pass for the difference in value between the ticket I have and the $399? In that respect can I then turn around and upgrade that annual pass to a coast to coast ticket?

But it has to be activated by Dec 31, correct? I'm confused by MS post...it says, buy it, save it but then it must be redeemed by Dec 31?? In my case my pass expires in Feb so I'm not sure.
Insider's Tip: A Premium Annual Pass certificate is not activated as a ticket until it is used the first time. So, if you've already purchased an Annual Pass, you can still take advantage of this offer by purchasing it now (between Oct. 1 and Dec. 31, 2012), but waiting to activate it until after your current pass has expired. Passes purchased on this offer must be redeemed by December 31, 2013.

Too bad it is only for WDW passes. We only get $20.00 off the price of a pass at Disneyland.

I know with a regular DVC AP I was told to upgrade to the 2park ticket, I would have to pay the difference between DVC AP & AP, then upgrade to the Premier Passport.

Looks like a phone call to DVC Guest Services is in order... I was always under the assumption that the ticket isn't activated until first use... Hmmm, I may have to call to verify...
EDIT: Looks like it has to be redeemed by the end of 2013, not 2012... Hmm, still going to call..
EDIT EDIT: Lynn, to answer your question, direct from member services, you can purchase the Premium AP between October 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012... You have until December 31, 2013 to redeem the voucher... So, not only do you get a Premium AP for less than a regular AP, you'll beat any price increases next year too!!!

We just renewed our Premium APs about 2-3 weeks ago. Got the voucher cards in the mail last week for the renewals. Would I be able to purchase new PAPs at the discounted price and activate them on our November trip, hold onto the renewal vouchers we just got, and then cash in those vouchers next year without having to pay for a renewal? Do renewal vouchers have to be exchanged within a certain amount of time after you purchase them?

Nope... No other AP discount... Just whatever the current discount is... Only the Premium is being sold under this special offer...

Eh, no worries... Just wanted to make sure, that's why I called... Wanted to make sure the 2013 date was correct.. it is.. I'm tempted... I haven't owned a WDW AP for 2 years now... My issues: I don't visit the water parks... But, still this deal makes it cheaper than the regular AP, and I won't be heading back til next year, so i can beat any price increases for next year... Really need to do some thinking about this...

I wonder if you could purchase non-expiring park hoppers for this trip and then after October 1, upgrade them to premium APs?

Missed that... Kind of makes it even more attractive to buy this pass, doesn't it?? I mean, I know it is only 10% and covers the cost of the added tax, but 10% is better than nothing...

I didn't think the discount was tied to the purchase of the premium pass but, rather, will be a perk just for being a DVC member. Did I misread it?

Hmm, me thinks another call to Member Services??? LOL... Does seem like it is not tied to the pass... I read the memo again... Your membership will get you 10%, not the pass...
