Any annual pass discounts?
Annual Passholder discount information has been added to the blog post. Passholders and DVC Members save $3 or $4 per ticket if you buy tickets in advance for certain dates.
Thank you! Are you certain these are official? Disney CRO is firm that no announcements have been made yet.
Wooohoo! Finally! Been waiting this post over 6 months. Thank you thank you<3 also! Thanks for your expertise we managed to plan and book our vacation 5months ago, with your predictions for the party days. On our next trip we will be able to go halloween and christmas parties! Keep up the excellent work!
Does the military discount include department of defense employees?
Last year AP holders weren’t blocked out of dates this year I see the weekend ones are blacked out. Great way to treat AP holders. We are up there that weekend for ToT weekend & wanted to go too MNSSHP
There were indeed passholder blackout dates last year. http://allears.net/tp/mk/mnssh.htm shows which ones AP holders were eligible for. There are more blackout dates this year, but it’s not a new phenomenon.
Can you purchase the military discount tickets in advance? Or can you only purchase them in person at SOG or the Disney Parks? We’re going to be there for the first Halloween party Sept. 10th… won’t be at Disney until Sept. 1st. Does the first party usually sell out early?
My understanding is that tickets closest to Halloween sell out, but not so much for the early dates, especially week nights.
Which christmas party date do you think would be less crowded, Nov. 11 or Nov. 14? I’m thinking of going on the 11th but am a bit worried about the crowd levels since it’s Veteran’s day…
Haven’t been back to WDW in years and will be going in early October. My first inclination is to experience the parks, “regularly” to soak it all in and skip MNSSHP. I’ll be there during the Epcot Food & Wine Festival, though, which is included with admission. MNSSHP will be in MK on the Thursday and Friday I’m at WDW but I wasn’t planning on being in MK on those evenings anyway. Is this a must-attend for someone like me who just wants to experience WDW who hasn’t been back in years?
Thanks for this! I am an AP but it will have expired by the time MVMCP comes around. If I purchase our tickets now, do you know if we’ll qualify for the AP discount?
Also, December 20th seems to be appearing in the table with 2 different prices of tickets. Are both correct?
So on the MNSSHP chart, the line that is
October 4, 29
November 1
Should really be
October 4, 27, 29
November 1
Right?
