Are tickets online cheaper than at the gates?

Are they cheaper online than at the gates? How far in advance do you have to order them online if you're getting them as "will call" tickets?

Yes, if you are getting anything over a 1 day parkhopper they are cheaper online. The best thing to do is use the e-ticket option so you don't have to deal with ticket booths or will call. Just take your printout to the turnstiles where they convert it to a parkhopper right on the spot!

The code is more what you'd call guidelines than actual rules

Given the delay I experienced ordering an AP online, I would give it at least 2 days before you need them. Of course if you do that, the email will be sent a second later...but I had a delay of a matter of hours if memory serves, and it made me just nervous enough that I would want to give myself a couple days in the future...just in case.

Flight Centre Canada sells Disney tickets in Canadian dollars.

If you are staying onsite you can pick them up from the desk at the hotel. If you are staying offsite you can pick them up at the main entrance guest services at the park. hth

I buy mine from getawaytoday and I find them to be a bit cheaper. You pick-up your tickets at the DL booth but it is really easy.
