Hmm...you mean the one I posted? Just wasn't sure if u could add it ltr..even at regular rate. Not sure will need wp in Jan. Will wait and see after this has been running for a bit.

Too funny! I'm now halfway to FL and didn't want to disregard your question earlier.

After I posted my first response, I stopped and thought, "where am I?"
Very nice posters on this forum that I didn't know existed! (I'm a Californian but yes, I've been to Canada! Beautiful and with friendly people!)

Thanks for posting this deal! Even without a room only discount this is a significant savings for a family of 4. It's great to see that Disney did not set a time limit for when the voucher has to be redeemed.

@parkbr You managed to get a great deal worked out there! You took the advanced class in Disney Math and passed with flying colours!!!

I like your style .. you know, getting more tickets for another trip, cause we all know there will be another one happen.

Is it possible to buy these discounted tickets at CAA here in Canada or do you have to order them from WDW?

If you get them here, would you be able to 'upgrade' to an AP with price bridging?

Also, we are going this Nov but already have tickets purchased from UT. If we buy these now for a future trip can we exchange the vouchers for tickets to bring back home to use later? Will we have to assign the tickets when we pick them up at the ticket window? OR ... Should I just keep the vouchers?

Finally,
What does buying the tickets using 'PS' mean?

Thank you!

I can't answer all of your questions but i do know they are only available thru Disney.
Speculation is that price bridging isn't possible with these tickets but hasn't been confirmed either way yet.
I *think* "PS" is Parksavers but not 100% sure.

Hi everyone, this is my first post here so be gentle please I have been putting hours of research into planning our first trip to Disney, maybe only trip, for 4 of us (2 adults, 2 kids)for March 2017. Hoping to book a split stay at AKL & Poly throug DVC point rental (on a wait list) and booking a moderate resort would be our backup plan. I'm still debating about the Dining Plan.

I purchased 6 day PH + WP tickets through Undercover Tourist and they arrived on Friday. I thought I was getting a great deal. And in my excitement, total rookie move, I linked the tickets to MDE. Now I see this discount is available and I feel sick. I'm a very frugal-minded person though we do want to splurge on this trip. However this is an almost $500 difference.

Does anyone think there is any chance that I can fix this? Also, have I totally messed up any chances of taking advantage of any possible future discounts on room/dining plan through Disney by purchasing the tickets separately? I have been planning this trip expecting no discounts because of peak season but now I am wondering if they might offer something as numbers might be lower than usual?

Thanks for reading and any advice you can share!

WELCOME to the family! You are going to Disney and that's amazing, you've done your homework and purchased tickets at what you had determined was an acceptable amount to you, great job! You'll need to create that as your line in the sand so-to-speak and move forward. It sounds like you've created a set budget amount and have things set in motion for a great vacation. Here's what i do: I decide the amount i would be happy to pay and when a portion of the trip comes in at that point i jump ... airfare one example and once i book that i stop looking because i don't want to get upset. I cancel all my price-watch emails and move on to the next step. There is a possibility that Disney will also offer a room only discount or package deal as well but only speculation at this point. If you've already put the wheels in motion for DVC rental (which is a great way to stay BTW) as soon as you get notification that you have a reservation .. stop looking at other discounts.

Like another poster said, we've all done the "once & done" trip and come home ready to plan the next trip! You will have a blast with your family, try not to stress too much over the planning, yes there is a lot of information to absorb but you have plenty of time and lots of people who are willing to help you out along the way!

Thanks! I kinda figured that price bridging wouldn't work.
Do you know if Park Hopper tickets are available with the discount?
And, Ummm, what is Parksavers?

Yes, there is a Park Hopper option that's on sale as well. If you think you want to have that, best to buy it right up front.

Parksavers is another ticket agent .. similar to UnderCover Tourist

So there is a discount for rooms only right now. Its 20%. Not sure what all the twists are though sorry

A new one? Or the one that goes until December 23rd?

Just the current fall deal, no winter deal yet.

I've been patiently (mostly) waiting for the winter room only discount deal to be posted. Going by previous years, it should be released between now and second week of Oct.

Happy travels.

I read that the Winter deals were posted on Monday September 28 last year, hoping that we'll see them this Monday.

Yes, last year was the earliest I've seen. They usually come out in Oct, so I'm hoping for the same early release as last year too.

 

[hswillia07]

I had great success with this ticket deal, so I'm super happy! I hadn't thought about a room deal though...I already have my rooms booked, so if a deal comes up, will they just adjust the price, or do you have to cancel and re-book?

I guess my calculation was correct! Thanks!

What is the Winter Deal, if you don't mind educating me?

 

[fan1080]

What is the Winter Deal, if you don't mind educating me?

Disney has released room only discounts for the winter months for quite a few years now (sometimes other discounts as well). They typically release the winter deals in the 1st or 2nd week of Oct, but last year it was released at the end of Sept.

You can check out historical discount release dates on mouse savers website. Just do a search for historical WDW discounts.

Happy travels.

Thanks for the tag.

@cottontail ~ purchase your new set of tickets and link them. Then, Cancel your tickets that are in your package. You won't lose FPs because you'll have the new ticket entitlements already linked.

This is great to know! I'm in the same situation. Heading down on November 13th with a package and made all my dining reservations and FP's. Still makes me super nervous about losing all of my dining reservations and FP's to buy the discounted tickets because when I called guest services, the agent couldn't guarantee it. I'm currently using a travel agent too so they are the ones that currently have to make the changes. Which also makes me nervous because I can't purchase the tickets myself and be on the line with a guest services agent at Disney when linking my tickets in MDE before I cancel my other ones. Anyone know if the travel agent can contact Disney to give me control to make changes?

@cottontail, if you happen to purchase the discounted tickets and link them I'd love to hear about it and if you had any issues.....

 

[ssmurphy28]

I just saw this deal last night and am super excited! We have all the money saved for a trip in September 2017, so the extra savings will maybe allow us to do MNSSHP or stay at nicer resort. Or we could just save it for future trips!

For two adults and two pre-school aged kids, we will save about $600CDN on nine day park hoppers!

 

[PoohsHubby]

Does anyone know if I can do the air miles "trick" with this:

Buy this at a discounted rate, use it once, then pay for the upgrade for the full cost of the ticket I purchased to Annual Pass?

TIA!
