5 Or 8 Day Passes
I Am Still Makeing Payments On Our Vacation So I Called Today And The Very Nice Cm Asked Me If I Realized For About $6.40 Extra Per Ticket We Could Get An 8 Day Pass So I Told Her That I Would Talk With Dh First B/c He Wanted A Couple Of Days To Relax But For That Price Ireally Think We Should, What Do You Think?

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
For that little of money I would not think twice. You may want to relax at your resort all day and head for a park at night.

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
For that little price difference, I would definitely go for it!! You could always take relaxing days off but then use your "practically free" extra park days to have dinner at a restaurant in the park...or relax all day and just go for the fireworks!
I think having the freedom of those extra days would be great.P.S. Congrats Remy on 100 posts! ![]()

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
In all honesty once you get to like 5 or 6 days it only cost a few dollars extra to add days to your passes..I like the difference between 4 days and 5 days is 8 dollars...so if your DH didn't want to do 8 days you could probably do 6 or 7 for cheap as well.

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
You might also want to think about adding the no expire option and just buying 10 day tickets and lock in those extra days for the future at a lower price than they'd eventually cost.
Imagine buying tickets today and then using them in 12 years and hopping between the 5 parks and your tickets only cost about $12 a day compared to $100 if you wait until 2020 to buy them.

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
I say do it! You could even relax all day and maybe just head to EPCOT for Illuminations or a stroll around World Showcase at night. That alone is worth way more than $6!

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
For the little amount more, I would go for it. Like others said, you could relax at the hotel all day, then decide to go to Rose & Crown for dinner & watch Illuminations, for example.
The no expiration option is up to you...would depend on if you wanted to fork out the extra $$$, although it is definitley cheaper than a whole new 3-day ticket. Prezcatz Paul

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
I agree with everyone.
It's so nice that even on a non-park day you can still head out and catch dinner at any park you want.

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
I agree with everyone. Personally, we buy the 10 day no expiration option which usually gives us 2 trips. This trip, we do not have to buy tickets because we have enough days left over to cover our entire trip. That was a huge savings for us this year which we of course spent getting a hotel on the beach in Tampa so that we could visit Bush Gardens this trip.

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
We are going to purchase 10 day park hopper no expiration tickets this year, attend the parks 5 days, and on one day go to Downtown DIsney. Then we have our next trip to look forward to knowing our tickets are paid for.

Re: 5 Or 8 Day Passes
I would add the no expire option on as well. It just makes sense. That way your tickets for next time are paid for.
