4. Movie tickets at Disney Springs

While it’s not a huge savings, annual passholders who are planning to see a movie and are out at Disney Springs anyway can save $2 per movie ticket, per passholder. Now there are a few stipulations here, as annual passholders can only purchase one discounted ticket per pass, and all passholders must present their pass and ID for each ticket. So, if for instance, you have four people trying to get discounted tickets, but only two people have their passes and IDs, you’ll only be able to get $4 off your total purchase. Though remembering ID and the physical annual pass card (not just your MagicBand) can be a bit of a hassle, if you are already carrying these items on you, it can make a night out at the movies a little bit less expensive (and perhaps leave room in the budget for a little popcorn!)

5. Shop Disney Parks app

Walt Disney World annual passholders might not know that they can link the Shop Disney Parks app to their My Disney Experience account to automatically get their 20% discount on all purchases made with the app, and can also enjoy free shipping periodically as well. So if there's something at Walt Disney World you really want, but you aren't able to get to the park immediately, as an annual passholder you needn't fear, as you'll pay the exact same price you would in the park to get it delivered directly to your house!  

6. Package deals

One of the biggest ways to save on a Walt Disney World vacation is though purchasing a package deal. However, often annual passholders can’t take advantage of these deals, as they generally include the price of ticket admission, which generally makes them not worth the savings for annual passholders who don’t need to purchase tickets. 

However, even though they’re not exactly publicized well, Disney actually does offer several annual passholder package deals every year that include hotel stays, dining, add-on experiences and more. Annual passholders looking to save on their next Walt Disney World trip should bookmark this page, as it is updated constantly with the latest package deals for passholders (as well as other groups like members of the military, etc.). 

Though this list represents some of the best discounts Walt Disney World has to offer its annual passholders, it is by no means exhaustive. What are some of your favorite annual passholder perks? Tell us in the comments!
