Parking information is from www.touringplans.com LOVE THAT SITE!

Better to buy the annual pass over the ten-day, just for the $120 saved in parking!

I don't know what annual passes were yesterday, but I probably should have bitten the bullet and bought 'em. I should also have checked prices to see what the actual increase was. :rolleyes: Now I have no idea what I could have saved.

We still need to buy those Disney points for the discount on the annual passes. We use the passes at least 30 days a year, so we always buy them.

I bought my DVC AP's last week, beat the price increase. I'm not going to use them until November.


Plus I used 290 Disney Visa Reward credits.

We will be in Orlando in Oct. staying off-site before a cruise. We are going to AKL for dinner one evening. Do we pay $12 to park at the lodge for dinner? Or is there valet avail for non-hotel quests going to dinner?

The $12/day parking fee mentioned in this thread is for parking at any of the 4 Disney theme parks and it's good for same day parking at all 4 parks. There is no fee at all to park for 3 hours at a resort, so you can go to dinner, shop or rent boats. Valet is also available at the deluxe resorts (incl AKL) but I don't recall the valet fee (plus tip).

Thanks, Lisa. I've only been to the World twice, both times staying in DVC exchanges and never had a car. I knew there was a parking fee but didn't know how much or for what. This trip won't be a Disney trip but we did want to check out AKL (never been) and have a nice dinner.

I renewed our DVC annual passes last Thursday. We paid $335 with tax to renew (with the DVC discount). We save our Disney Visa awards all year, too, so we usually have close to $200 Disney award dollars towards our annual passes. :D I really like the DVC member discount on annual passes.
