[nun69]

can you guys help me? I need to buy 2 tickets for my daughter and her best friend to buy Disneyworld tickets for 2-3 days...they are leaving on Saturday....thanks

Undercover Tourist is usually one the cheapest places online to buy them. Will they be driving/renting a car? It is a little too late to order them and have them delivered in time, but they can go pick them up if they have a car.

MY DD's best friend's mom is going along so they will have a rental car if they need to pick them up

Sorry. Deleted my prior post until I reviewed the information a little more.

I noticed you need a 2-3 day ticket. Please note that UT does not sell a 2 day ticket. They sell a 3 day ticket with a 4th day free, which is still cheaper than WDW 3 day ticket. Not by much. The savings is minimal and would probably almost be worth buying at the parks, or ordering online through WDW and letting them pick them up at Will Call.

If you only need a 2 day ticket, then it would probably be best if they bought them over there or again, order them through WDW site and let them pick them up Will Call.

Your daughter will need a credit card to pick up the tickets. So if she has a credit card (or even debit card with visa/MC logo) in her name, then I would use that to buy the tickets.

Not sure where you live, but in most areas, most AAA offices sell tickets. You can buy them there even if you aren't a member, but if you are (or if you bring someone with you who is), you will get a slight discount for buying 3 days or longer. They will load the tickets with whatever options you pick (park hopper, water parks, etc) and you will leave the office with them in hand. They stock they actual tickets and are able to load them through the disney travel agents web site, which I presume is what UT does too but they mail them to you.

Because of the price increase a couple of days ago all of the discount resellers have been swamped. Someone from Undercover Tourist said right now they are not accepting any telephone orders and are trying to catch up.

At this point to be able to get something by early next week is problematical at best. Also since Disney does not discount one or two day tickets at all, if the resellers carry them they charge a premium over gate. And a three day ticket would have very little discount.

So you may as well have them buy them from Disney at the Gate or buy them online and set up for will-call.
