Seasonal pass?? Pros/cons?

mnsshp and mvmcp have seperate admissions as far as i know

We have annual passes and love them. We get some discounts with it. As for MNSSHP and MVMCP , yes you have to buy seperate tickets. Annual passes are only for general admission into the parks. Annual passes also have no black out dates where as Fl resident passes do.

We have the FL resident annual pass w no black out dates as we are teachers and we go the most during the summer. We do the monthly payment plan which works well for us. We count it as part of our monthly entertainment budget. We average at least a trip every other week, a lot of times once a week throughout the year. We have had passes since we moved to FL 13 yrs ago and it is a great value for us. You will learn all the ways to save $ and all the short cuts and ins and outs in no time as you go more often. We did a cost-ratio for the FL resident w black out and the FL resident w/o blackout and the one w/o the black out is a better value if you are going to use it. It also includes parking, but you can park at boardwalk for free and walk to the EPCOT back entrance if you have the blackout pass.
You need to look at your schedule and lifestyle to decide which is the best for you. The annual works for us as we have spent Christmas day and other holidays there, and we go alot in the summer - we were there Sunday and are going tomorrow. We go to EPCOT a lot for the concert series, something you may want to consider if you like music.
Hope that helps. I know there are some other FL residents and locals on here that have different options.

We have had annual passes with no blackouts in the past, and now I have the FL resident weekday pass, which works for me, because I work from home and can go during the week. Sometimes I don't love the blackouts, but in reality, we don't tend to go during those blacked out times because they are so busy. We find that they are completely worth, and do pay for themselves in rather short order.

If your budget allows, I would recommend the annual passes with no blackouts and free parking. It's wonderful freedom! But if not, check out the seasonal, and especially the weekday and Epcot after 4 (if Epcot is your favorite). Depending on your schedule, these might work for you. Also, it's less of an investment if you find that you don't use it as much as you thought.

As Julie said though, the payment plan is a buster of a good thing! I plan to use it if I end up upgrading my tickets at some point.

I'm a CM, so my ID is prettymuch like an annual pass and I love it. If I wanna get up early one morning and go to AK, ride a few rides, then head over to Epcot and eat lunch then leave, I can. Or if I wanna wait until 6 and go to MK just to walk around and watch Wishes, I can do that too. And when you only live about 30mins out its really nothing to just spontaneously decide you wanna go! But it also depends on your work schedule and budget.

If Epcot is your favorite, there's always the EPCOT after 4 pass to consider. Although there's no flexibility w other parks, we had them on a low budget year and we did use them alot. They are designed for locals who go just for the concert series in the evening and they are very reasonable. The concerts alone make it worth while although it is quite restrictive. No blackout dates, it's just EPCOT any day after 4:00.
