Another 4 day park hopper plus pass question please

[jjarman]

I am sometimes a little dubious of "good deals". I see this site has 4 day park hopper plus passes for about $216.00 or so a piece. How come these are cheaper than the passes on the Disney site? Has anyone ever bought them here and used them? This is a trip my DS and I have planned for June 2004 and I don't want anything to go wrong. I would hate to get to the gate the first day and the passes not work.

Also, can the resort (AS Sports) take my pass I buy here and put it on my room key or do I have to buy the pass at checkin to do that?

If they are a sponser on this board you can be assured that they are legit and if there were problems, they would not be here long.
No, you cannot have your ticket put on your room key. The only way to do that is to buy it at the resort.

Thanks so much for the reply. I hesitated to even ask because I didn't want to offend anyone. I have been reading these boards for 2 years now I guess and always found such good advice but I have never used any of the sponsors. How are they able to get the tickets cheaper though? Just curious.

The tickets are purchased from Disney, in bulk, at a wholesale rate. The vendor will upcharge at whatever level he chooses, which is why you will see varying prices on the 'net for the same pass.
