I am not a AP holder ... so maybe this is why i don't know ...but what is a PIN code? They are clearly very valuable!

Disney will sometimes send e-mails or mail flyers with discount offers. These discount offers include a reference number (called pin code) that the person can use when making a Disney reservation in order to access the discount offer.

No-one knows who, or why, Disney targets to receive these special offers but it is clearly part of their marketing strategy. I occasionally receive such offers and even have received such offers on behalf of my son-in-law and my sister-in-law who have traveled to Disney with me before so Disney had their names but my contact information.

Thanks Faline! I just bought my first annual pass last weekend and am so excited about it! I daydream about leaving work and driving to Disney all day long! I'll be watching for those PINs!

Keep in mind that there are often annual passholder discounts on lodgings as well!

always thought I would get one, but have never received one, and I have done what others have said to, in order to get a pin code......HMMMMMM makes you wonder?

So what are some of these things to try? Even if I don't get a PIN I would like to try anything that might increase my odds of getting one.

Signing up on the Disney website and ordering the free vacation planning dvd have often been suggested as ways of increasing your chances of getting a pin code.

My definition of a PIN code is something that I never seem to get in my name :(
however, every kid we've taken with us has!
