Hello! I'm contemplating getting annual passes but I'm doing some homework before presenting my case to the husband! Which type of pass do you (annual pass holders) have and how many times a year do you go? Thanks so much!!

Thank you all! I love mousewait, you're all awesome! So is my hubby, he is willing to try out passes for one year!!! - MamalovesMinnie  4.8 #11270 6:04PM
I was thinking of getting the Deluxe and aim for at least 4 times, which is what we did this year. I want to join the ap family! :) - MamalovesMinnie  4.8 #11270 5:11PM
You might want 1 premium for parking and discounts. - MeridasHair  332.8 #476 5:18PM
We have an rv and stay at the rv park which is walking distance. - MamalovesMinnie  4.8 #11270 6:00PM
Are you in CA? We have Had Deluxe's for the kids and I have a premium. We went over 75 times. - MeridasHair  332.8 #476 5:07PM
Yes, central California. Thank you! - MamalovesMinnie  4.8 #11270 5:08PM
The CA passes are blocked a lot. Look at the calendars and see if you are blocked on days you would want to go on like Saturdays, holidays and the summer. This year we are all Premium. - MeridasHair  332.8 #476 5:17PM
That's a bummer! Just looked at the dates but I wouldn't object to planning around the blocked days. - MamalovesMinnie  4.8 #11270 6:01PM
I have the Premium. I live in San Diego and figure as long as I get there at least 5-6 times a year (which hasn't been a problem!), and considering it includes parking and discounts, it's paid for itself. I probably visit at least 1-2 times a month. - Gia  794.2 #122 5:08PM
I have a premium AP and have gone 18 times (not bad considering I am from NorCal). I feel my pass has been totally worth it and I will renew it when the time comes. - PrincessLeia  263.8 #905 5:12PM
I have a Premium pass and live in NV. My boyfriend and I go maybe 4 times a year with each visit being 2-3 days and some spur of the moment trips in between. It's definitely worth it for us because our passes pay for parking and we get discounts on food and merchandise with no blackout dates. - KermitFan13  411.1 #323 5:13PM
Deluxe I go at least 5+ times per year. I don't go on Sat so I don't need the premium. - Alice❤Eeyore  15.7 #5688 5:18PM
I have a deluxe since I'm from Arizona. I went 7 times with it last year 😊 - AshleyLynn22  748.1 #137 5:20PM
I have a premium and I actually lost count of how many trips I've made this year. I think it's about 11 trips total this year, each trip being more than one day. I live about 300 miles north of DL. - Jillian  766.2 #131 5:25PM
Hi, I'm also from central California and we have the premium passes we go every couple of months. With the premium pass you will have free parking and tons of discounts. You can get discounts in down town Disney as well. Best wishes and seasons greeting. - thisgirllovesdisney  14.7 #5848 5:27PM
Thanks! You too!! - MamalovesMinnie  4.8 #11270 6:03PM
Premium, 1 to 2 times a week. Approx. 80 visits per year. An excellent value. - timetraveler2442  338.6 #452 5:33PM
Premium is the way to go if you can afford it. Before I was a passholder, I thought I would only go once or twice a year, and was always afraid I would waste the money I put into the pass. After I got my pass, I ended up going over 25 times last year without even realizing it. You tend to go more often spur of the moment when you know you can. :) - Alicewhoareyou  543.9 #213 6:04PM
And like others have said, Premium allows you to go anytime you wish, including holidays and weekends, and includes parking. Not to mention all of the merchandise and dining discounts. - Alicewhoareyou  543.9 #213 6:06PM
My son and I are premium pass holders - Plumiegirl  3529.9 #11 6:14PM
We live in the Central Valley, and get the cheapest passes. We try to make 2-3 trips a year for 2-3 days at a time, four fays at Christmas. We have to plan around block out days, but at least my hubby doesn't have to fight for the prime vacation days at work, and the park is not stupidly busy when we go. We always get a hotel within walking distance, so parking is not a problem either. The short answer is, whatever works for you. - LittleAprilShowers  500.8 #241 6:22PM
I think you guys are talking me into getting passes for my daughter and me. We only live two hours away so it would be a easy day trip. - ambieloo83  6.6 #8714 6:30PM
We have Premium and go at least 12 time a year. - Boundin  428.1 #299 6:29PM
My family has 4 passes. 2 premium & 2 southern california. We go at least 2X a month with the premium & the other 2 get to go on Sundays. In the summer we go more often after work with the premiums. - Winnie111286  292.6 #674 6:30PM
Do not ask the price I pay for I must live with my quiet rage Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead Should you shake my ash to the wind Lord forget all of my sins Oh let me die where I lie 'neath the curse of my lover's eyes - Dave  8834.8 #2 6:46PM
You can always ask if others can chip in and pay it for you cause you can't afford it.... - toph  2406.7 #26 6:53PM
Premium is the best one for Disneyland Resort ANnual Pass... Parking is included. 20% on merchandise, 15% on food :) - otilegna  1073.0 #80 6:53PM
Also if you want to go during Christmas/New Year time period, premium is the best one... - otilegna  1073.0 #80 6:54PM
My family of 4 all have Premium Passes. We live in NorCal and head to the parks every 4-6 weeks. We will upgrade when our passes expire even though we won't go as frequently next year. Deluxe passes don't really work for our family as school gets in the way. Good luck with your decision. - LaPearleNoir  621.4 #180 6:59PM
