Anyone bought Hopper tickets from Disney online?

[Daisy57b]

I need to buy hopper passes. I went to the Disney Store today to get them and they said the system is down due to the weather (we had horrible rain here today). Now I just heard that prices may be increasing.

So has anyone bought tickets from Disney online before? You can buy them from disneyworld.com. I'm just wondering how reliable it is - as far as shipping. It says 14 days. I have 30 days before we leave.

I should get them in time??? Can someone tell me their experience with buying tickets online from Disney???
Thanks!

Yes, I have purchased hopper tickets from Disney.com before. Everything went fine and I had them in just a few days. I really don't do it anymore because you can't swing a suitcase in the Orlando area without hitting a place that sells tickets for the same price, so I don't see any big reason to tie the money up ahead of time.

But if you are the type that feels better by having that taken care of before you go, that is a good place to do it.

I bought them last year and they didn't take 14 days to arrive. It was more like 4 or 5! I was really surprised they got here so fast. You can also have them hold them for you at either a Disney resort (if you're staying on-site) or at a ticket center. This would save you the shipping cost too.

You can purchase them from Disney and opt to use the "will call" system. This avoids worry about the mail, losing them and they are there at Guest services for you to pick up when you get there.
I used it for my annual passes and it was great.

Yes, you will get them in time. I ordered my passes on January 14th, and I received them on January 20th. I didn't request express shipping....just the regular $3.00 shipping.

I've purchaced ours from the link below the last few years, most recently 2 weeks ago. Tix arrive in 3 - 4 days and they're about 7 percent less than Disney charges. We've saved big $$ over time. Can't understand why anyone would buy from Disney.

I bought PAP's so I had to get them through Disney (that's the only place I've found them since the DC) and I wanted to use them for the resort AP rate. I had to get them before we went so I could get them activated and then check into my resort for the savings.
