Ive ordered an alton towers annual pass, i know you can get discounts in the park and i just wondered if anyone knows what the discounts are as i can't seem to find the details online and when i rang the contact centre they did not know either

I think that it is all unbranded shops and restaurants at Alton Towers. They have got rid of brands from the park now anyway, so the pass should entitle you to a discount on everything from shops and restaurants.

With the annual pass you get - Early Ride Time; Free Parking; 20% off stays at the hotels; 20% off the waterpark; 20% off food, drink and merchandise. I think there are a couple more as well but I can't remember off the top of my head what they are.

Moto service station discounts are only with a Merlin pass, not with an Alton Towers only one. Free car parking applies to Alton Towers pass and Merlin Premium pass (not standard Merlin).dropkick10 wrote:Free parking is for the Premium passes only, however you can also get discount at Moto service stations. Dan has covered most of them though!

I know that the AT Annual Pass gets you all these discounts as I have one.jon18uk wrote:Moto service station discounts are only with a Merlin pass, not with an Alton Towers only one.

I have never had a problem getting 20% off food and drink etc with it, and I got 20% off my hotel stay for Nemesis@20 with it.
In a nutshell you get the same perks as a premium MAP, but just at Alton Towers.

I thought AT Annual Passholders would get the 20% as well but it's just not clear from the website.
The Moto services discount for Merlin passes doesn't always work even with a Merlin pass so that is the main perk I wouldn't expect to work on an AT pass.
