If a FL resident is also a DVC owner, which annual pass is best? Does Disney even give you a choice?
I know the DVC pass gives a 100.00 discount for the renewal. Does the FL Gold pass?
I believe the price for the Gold pass is the same for Florida residents and DVC members, so it doesn’t matter which eligibility you choose to use. Same for the Platinum and Platinum Plus passes. However, Florida residents have access to a couple of passes that DVC members can’t buy - the passes are for after 4 PM and/or have additional blackout dates.
AllEars.net is my favorite source for information like this. Ticket prices can be found at http://allears.net/walt-disney-world/wdw-planning/walt-disney-world-ticket-prices/.
Thanks for that info..Have the DVC Gold Pass now, but starting Nov 1st when it expires we will be Fl residents. I will look into Silver pass. Looks like Silver Pass can be used starting August 9th this year.I'm DVC but not FL resident and we get the Gold Pass. If I were a Florida resident, I would get the Silver pass ($479 plus tax). It's cheaper and has the same blocked dates as the Gold ($609 plus tax), and also blocks out all of June and July, as well as beginning of August, but who wants to go then anyways? Also, as a FL resident, you can spread the payments out monthly if you want.
As well as frequent FL resident special tickets that can be even cheaper.I am Florida resident and always get the Weekday Select, which cost half as much the gold pass. As a Florida resident, you have many more options for APs.

That is a reasonable price for Florida families!They just announced a FL resident special for $219 plus tax for 4 days (non Park hopper & 1 park per day).
Over the years I've had a safe full of options including non expiring 7 & 10 tickets, seasonal passes, even previous FL specials that didn't have a drop dead rate, only a limit of 6 months once activated. More often than not we've gone and used similar FL resident specials that were better at the time and keep the other options for a later time.That is a reasonable price for Florida families!

But parking not includedNice deal!
Yup, another $100!But parking not included
But parking not included
Parking has never been included in the 3-5 day FL resident passes or any other pass for a set number of days that I can recall including the 7 & 10 days non expiring passes. Parking is included if staying on property.Yup, another $100!
Also must be used by the end of August.
If staying on property, you now have to pay to park your car at the resorts. Anywhere from $15-$25 a night depending on which tier of resort you are staying at. Disney actually just increased the hotel parking prices too.Parking has never been included in the 3-5 day FL resident passes or any other pass for a set number of days that I can recall including the 7 & 10 days non expiring passes.

Nice deal!
For me, the Florida Weekday select is still the best deal by a landslide.
