2 questions about purchasing park tix online

[drinkme]

1. Do you know how long the rate special will last? I see online at DL's website that the 4 day hopper is $161 for adults & kids. I'm wondering if I can wait a couple of more weeks to purchase these.

2. If I opt to choose the etickets, do we trade in the paper for a real park hopper ticket? I don't want to walk around the parks all week with ticket printouts. Not to mention that my dh would want to hold his own ticket in case he comes to the park later in the day than the rest of us.

TIA!

1. It seems to say
Valid January 5, 2010 thru April 29, 2010, but they might stop selling them before then.
2. Yep, they scan the printout at the entrance and you get the normal tickets that you can use for fastpass and all that stuff.

They won't stop selling them before then. You can buy a hopper at that special price up to and including April 29, as long as your first day of use is on or before April 29.

when you say "at the entrance" does that mean i take the printout to the ticket booth to get a real ticket?

the E ticket you print online is taken directly to the turnstiles...it is scanned and the machine spits out a real live cardboard ticket with the magnetic strip on the back so you can get Fast Passes
