Best 3/4 day ticket deals for DL?

[esc38372]

It says the adult and child parkhoppers are $172.00 Canadian for a 3 day hopper which comes out to US $138.40 with the current exchange rate. That's a pretty good deal.

4 days are US $147.25 for adults and kids. Thanks for the tip to all our Dis friends to the North!

One thing to keep in mind is that you may be charged a "foreign transaction fee" by your credit card. This fee ranges from 0% (Capitol One, I believe) to 3%. You can take a look at these links for more info, but the bottom line is to call your credit card and ask about the foreign transaction fee.

ETA: I tried to add links to articles from the NY Times Practical Traveler blog and a Wikipedia article, complete with a chart of credit cards & their foreign transaction fees, but I don't have enough posts to add links yet. Sorry!

Good reminder! I was wondering about that.

I have budgeted $616 for 2 adult and 2 kids 3 day PH's. With this deal, it would be more like $553 and even if I did pay 3%, I would still come out ahead! The only bummer part is having to turn the print out confirmation into tickets at DLR. We probably won't even get to the park until 1pm on our first day and I don't want to waste time standing in a line I could have avoided....I will need to think about this.

Does anyone know if I bought my tickets thru Getaway Today, do they ship "real" tickets or would I have to stand in line to switch them at the park too?

I would like to try to purchase my tickets through the flightcenter.ca site. However, it doesn't let my get tickets for May.....am I doing something wrong? Looks like it only goes up to 4/28.

The "Everyone Pays Kids Prices" promotion is only good through the last day of April, 2009.

Thanks for the reply!

I realize I didn't word my question very well! We are going in May and I would like to take advantage of the exchange rate and buy tickets from this Canadian company. Unfortunately, I am aware that we will miss the kids price tickets...

I will give them a call tomorrow and ask them directly (they are closed today).

All 3+ day PH have one MM, no matter where you buy them from.

WRONG!

Convention tickets are the most common, but there are others (including, I think the complimentary military ones) that do not offer any Magic Morning admissions.
