? about Flexticket +

[arielrocks]

Hi,

I need to book my Flextickets soon, on Virgin Holidays website the price jumps up after 28th Feb!

I am going in May for 2 weeks.

Do I need to put my travel dates in as May when I book them? or could I be sneaky and get the cheaper Feb prices?

you could get a better price from other ticket suppliers floridatix is a good one to use, they supply proper tickets were virgin issue vouchers that you exchange at one of the parks on the flexticket. There shouldnt be any date on them when you order them, normally tickets will expire 14 days after first use.

Floridatix £183, Virgin Holidays £165!!!!

For once Virign are cheaper - plus I get 5% for flying club discount!!!!!

I'd like to know the answer to the OP's questions, as we're going in April.

Anyone know?

As far as I know, these park tickets don't have dates on them, and they expire 14 days after the first day of use. I don't see why getting them in February will be a problem for May. It's strange how the price shoots up.

Is there a price rise for tickets going on?

Although you can get them for £159 here...

Virgin have been just about cheapest around for tickets since before Xmas, especially if you can get the FVC 10% discount, we bought 7 day Premium from them at Xmas, over £50 cheaper than ATD just for 1 ticket. Other companies have put prices up a lot Virgin haven't (yet)

Just got copy of voucher I used at Xmas. we bought 7 day Premium for DMIL, said on Virgin's website for travel upto 31st Dec, on the voucher it says This voucher expires 60 days from the voucher commencement date (which was 25th Nov) so I would expect Disney to honour the voucher until 24th Jan NOT 31st Dec.
Don't know if this is standard.

I believe its the Flex ticket plus, £189 with ATD.

Just read FAQ's
All their vouchers are only valid 60 days.

I thought the OP wanted the Flexticket? That is £159. I didn't look at the plus one on ATD, or anywhere else lol.

Confusing all these different tickets.

 

[madmumof2]

lol!

 

[arielrocks]

No - I want Flexticket+

Virgin Holidays is the cheapest place - and I will miss the 60 day voucher window by 4 days!!!!!

I got my vouchers from Premier Travel, both Disney and Flexticket plus and the lady there said that if we wanted them early she could put an earlier date, so we did. However on receiving the vouchers the Disney one has a 60 day expiry on it but the Universal one has no expiry on it. Unfortunately the date the lady put means our 60 days runs out before we get there, so she has asked for them to be re-issued.

So for the flexticket I would think you would be ok.
