4 day ticket deal?

[vinotinto]

Ugh, just came here to say how annoying it is that there isn’t a 4-day ticket deal.

I just did the math, if I purchase the 3-ticket deal plus a 1-day at MK, I save $80 over a regular 4-day base ticket in my package. I have 3 people, so $240. But, I’m within 2 weeks of checking in, so would that trigger a fee since I’m “downgrading” packages? Not sure I have it in my to do all that for $200. LOL.

Since you currently have a package with tickets and it’s with 30 days of check-in, yes you should expect a fee for removing the tickets now.

Well, no $89 ticket for me!! My date is $111 so while it does save me roughly $85 a ticket, (based on a 3 day ticket and 1 one day MK ticket) it still isn’t the deal I was hoping for. I suppose I should be grateful for any discount. I am hoping to at least save some more money by getting tickets through undercover tourist once their site is updated. Still, it’s a hassle having to purchase 2 different tickets

This is my thought process as well. I’d rather not buy 2 tickets for multiple reasons, but the main one for me is that if for any reason we decide to upgrade the ticket, we can only apply the value of 1 ticket (you cannot combine the value of 2 tickets).

Just quick question - if you buy tickets separately (not in a package) they are non refundable right?

Sweet I guess right that the 3 day would be $119/day for our dates. Forgot to add in tax when I did the maths before but still works out overall to saving us $635 vs just 4 day base tickets for all 5.

It’s right around what the difference was last year with the 4 park vs 4 day ticket difference from what I remember, was around $700 cheaper last year, same time of year.

Having to buy singles and triples is annoying but whatever.

Usually. Tickets purchased outside of a package must be paid for in full at the time of purchase. WDW does not accept returns/refunds, though I believe at least one of the third-party authorized resellers has a return policy. Fully-unused expired tickets still carry a credit value towards a future ticket purchase.

FWIW, if I am correct, it looks like it is cheaper to buy the 3 day ticket through a 3rd party seller and the one day ticket to MK through Disney.

Pretty sure Undercover Tourist will refund 95% of your ticket price if something happens.

Do we think they will come out with a 4 day deal later? And you'll be able t upgrade if you brought the 3 day?

I was really hoping for the 4 day deal!

I wonder if they are doing the 3 day without MK this year because they are seeing that with EPIC opening they are getting higher 1 day MK tickets so they aren't expecting lower than normal MK attendance.

I am curious why the kids ticket 50% off deal is through 9/20 and the 3 day 3 park deal is through 9/22

The 3 day 3 parks plus MK won’t work for us so we have decided to just do 2 days MK and Epcot.. for our dates, it is cheaper than 3 parks (trading 2 parks for the one we want most). Ideally, they would have offered the 4 day 4 park option. When you consider how much most of us spend once in the park, I think it would have been a win win to offer the 4 day 4 park option at $99/day across the calendar.

I actually am staying at Ft Wilderness for 7 nights so I would have enjoyed it if there was a longer ticket deal. Instead of spending money on LL, I would have done a couple more partial days in the parks( got to have some down time) but it seems like Disney only wants visitors to stay a few days, and pay a premium if you want to go to MK.

I think there’s greater than a 50% chance the four day Park ticket is going to be offered after Easter

I am not so sure. It would be a huge pain for Disney because a lot of people who bought the 3 day would try and upgrade it to a 4 day and we all know the speed and reliability of Disney IT. And they don't really have any issues with MK attendance. Even with Epic opening, if people split their time, the one park most will still visit is the MK. Epic may even increase MK attendance, with a lot of people coming to Orlando to go to Epic, I still think they will save one day for Disney and for many, that one day will be the MK. I could see them doing a 4 day ticket with more strict date restrictions if one is offered. But not the same dates as the 3 day. But who knows? You may be right!

Just for fun, I priced out ONE day at EPIC for family of four in July


With Fast Passes….


Cost: $1700

ARE THEY STOOPID?! For ONE DAY. And their express pass doesn’t even include every ride.


If this is where Theme Parks are headed….. HERE I COME DOLLYWOOOOOOD

The EP more than doubles the cost. What's the cost for one day at MK with LLPP? Bet it's considerably more...

I love when people complain about the cost while quoting absolutely the most expensive option (one day with EP).

One day Epic tickets are actually fairly reasonable, especially for a brand spankin' new park.

Just for reference…

A 3 night DISNEY CRUISE for family of 4 (food/enterntainment) is $2863


ONE day at Epic with EP’s (that don’t include every ride, food, or hotel) is $1700+



Once you include hotel and food, they are the same price. FOR ONE DAY

 

[CAPSLOCK]

And a day at a museum is $0-$100+ for a family of 4, what's your point?

For 1 day in July, family of 4:
Epic $706
MK $706

For 1 day EP/LLPP in July:
Epic $230
MK not out yet, likely $399

I'm not saying either is cheap, but calling Epic/Universal stupid expensive because you're including EP is disingenuous. The EP/LL at either park is optional, and buying a 1 day ticket is the most expensive per-day option.
