Advice that's worth it's wait in gold.
I am always very careful, use the in-room safe, double check etc. but on our last trip we lost a ticket. We even knew where & when we must have lost it but nothing turned up. I had never thought to make a note of the numbers on the back so we phoned lost property-no joy. They said try again the next day & if nothing, go to a Park & ask for help at Guest Services. So we went to MGM and had to wait ages in the Queue, then were told that because we had bought them on-line from Ticketmania Disney were able to track the ticket & issue a new one while voiding the old one. BUT if we had bought the ticket in the UK they would have had no record & wouldn't have been able to help us.
Moral of the story is
Make a note of the numbers the minute your tickets arrive & if you buy them here from Keith Prowse etc. make DOUBLY sure you have the numbers somewhere safe.
