Does our pass get us any discount on tickets? Thank you

Not sure how she got these...but she did save us tons of money!

There are no DLAP discounts to WDW as of now. Finding out what you are entitled to is very confusing. Please consult the portal as well as the Cast Travel department for assistance and the Cast Center. The room discounts vary from 40%-50%, depending on time of year and what is already booked. Don't be afraid to call a few times to check a few Disney hotels for different sets of day, if you go ala cart. We found it best to use the pre-set Cast trips, since those are all-inclusive and we didn't have to lift a finger! Whoooo! Do you have a Silver Pass or a sign-in? Ours is good for WDW, but we had to go to the Guest Services window each morning to get verified and to pick up a daily park hopper. Other than that, I was under the impression we could guy any additional needed tickets there by showing my husband's ID, but since it was just us two, we never had to at all. The one thing we found out is that lockers are free to CM's. You just have to leave two bucks deposit for the key. I guess the bottom line is to ask, ask, and ask again. Ask both here and over there, as the answers vary for each level of CMness on both coasts.
