Disney Annual Passes: To Buy or Not to Buy, That is the Question

0

If you love visiting Disney and have asked yourself whether Annual Passes were right for your family, this is for you. There are several things worth taking into account. First, consider the price of each park ticket per day. Then consider how many times you plan on visiting in one year. If you are planning on visiting the parks several times each visit and making the trip at least two to three times in one year, chances are Annual Passes are a good idea. You may find that your price per visit is less with the Annual Passes, with the total cost broken up into monthly payments.
