I am posting this here, as DVC members tend to do things differently than others who go to Disney. So, here it goes:
At what point do you consider to be the point where an Annual Pass makes sense? Do you decide based on number of trips per year? Do you decide based on expected days in the parks? Especially with the date-specific pricing, when does your math add up to "buy the AP?" (PS I am a money-saving resale only member BTW, so no Gold Pass eligibility for me.)
Sub-question, for those of you with DH/DW, do you ever just buy one pass for one person in the family?
In case you want to know why I am asking, here are my year plans for DVC:
Just went in January for weekend with whole family (me, DH, DD, and DS); did one day in parks. We liked just one day in parks.
DH and I are going for adults only trip in September. We plan to be in parks for 2 days.
The whole family will be back in July 2020 for 6 nights, 4 days spent in the park.
We just added a small contract and that might make for another quick trip in 2020, or bigger accommodations, not sure yet...
So, that is at least 6 park days planned over the next 12 months for 2 of us... Does that math mean we should do 1 AP to get discounts and photopass or 2 APs or NO APs?
