Best price 7 day hopper plus dvcmember

[PHILCT]

Hi Everyone

The Disney Store had adult 7 Day Hopper Plus Tickets available for $336.00 which included the Florida Sales Tax.
Without tax it was 316 I think.

What is the cheapest you can get the same tickets from Disney with the DVC discount and advance sales?
I believe you can not get the discount at the Resort anylonger, but I am not sure if that is true or not.
I am not interested in Ultimate Hopper information, just Hopper Plus.

Does DVC perks withs advance sales offer the same Disney Store price plus a 5 percent discount, or do they offer a full price plus a percent discount kind of thing?

I know I can buy these tickets online for as low as $320 but I wanted to know if Disney was giving DVC members a better break than a percentage off full price, by doing a break off the Disney Store price to anyone.

Last year they were about 300.00 online, but the prices went up around March this year again.

I wish Disney would offer just DVC members a 10 Day Hopper Pluss kind of thing, with 5 Plusses for under 400.00 with tax.
If anyone was coming back to Disney with unused park hopper passes it is surely DVC members who could use a quantity kind of Hopper Pass if they were not into the annual pass.


Thanks,

Phil

There is no DVC discount on park hoppers or annual passes. The only pass discount DVC offers is 10% off the ultimate park hopper (length of stay). The 10% off is off the regular price, not the advance price, so the discount is really very little. But you can drop the first or last day at the front desk.

The best price I have gotten for 7 day PHP is from Hotwire Savings Club at $302.05 give or take a few cents. This is the total price including shipping unless you want it shipped faster. I usually get items from them in 5-7 days with the free shipping. You can join free and cancel once you get the tickets or keep the membership for $7.95 a month if you find the offers worhtwhile. DVC discount is only the UPH pass.

Before you buy from Hotwire, check out the Budget Board. Hotwire is a sales outlet for Connections - there are many reports of problems. IMHO, it's not worth the hassle/risk to join since they have had so many reported incidents of poor customer service and incorrect credit card charging. JMHO. YMMV. Check it out first.

FWIW, if you post your question on the budget board, you'll get more responses regarding in inexpensive park tickets and the brokers that sell them.

Best wishes -

I have bought in the past from paramount international travel and from florida orlando tickets.

Both were cheaper on the 7 day PHP than the Disneystore, even with the Disney club discount (which is no longer offered)

Also, Paramount included a breakfast voucher with each ticket, which we used at a character breakfast. So, that came out to a $20 savings (with tax and tip included on the voucher) per ticket.

Good luck!

Just bought (2) 7 day hopper plus passes from Paramount for $321 a piece. Both passes included a bonus of a day at Disneyquest. We paid $321 a piece for the passes and $15.00 shipping. So a total of $657 for two. Not bad considering we got that extra day of Disneyquest for each ticket.

In the past when I bought from Paramount they gave the free character breakfast vouchers, but the last ones we purchased a few weeks ago included the free Disneyquest admission.

Hopefully DVC will offer some type of discounts on hopper passes to their members in the future. Every family member I have that isn't a member is shocked that we don't get a pass discount. I think it would be a great selling point for DVC for new members to join.

What is Paramount International Travel?

Here's the link to order tickets from Paramount:

http://www.gopitravel.com/OrderTickets.asp?saleto=D

Their office is in Orlando and they say you can pick up tickets there instead of paying shipping, but we purchased ours ahead of time and had them sent to us.

HTH!

Thanks for all the information everyone.

I did use Paramount Travel or Florida Orlando Tickets last time, based on the prices on Mousesavers site.
I can't remember which one.
This beat TICKETMANIA prices, when the price of a $15.00 buffet per ticket is considered.

I did get the bonus Breakfast Vouchers also, which I used at Chef Mickey's, what a deal.

I am just amazed that disney can't beat the discounts directly for its own DVC members.

Maybe some day they will offer us a discount for Hopper Plus Tickets.


Thanks Everyone,

Phil

I used paramount last year and got the free breakfast vouchers. They arived in a couple of days after ordering. I then picked up universal tickets at Paramount while I was in Orlando. They are just off I 4, near the holy city place. (a couple miles from Univ).
This year I just needed one more hopper pass. I called Paramount and they had one. I drove right there and picked it up so I paid no shipping. I do not think they have alot of tickets on hand so better to call ahead. Rosa, is the lady who took all my orders, she is great. I did get a 7 day with Disney quest printed on the back.

If you are a AAA member, you can get these passes through them for $325, either through the website, or at one of their offices.

I did talk to Rosa also last year, and she was great.

Thanks for helping me remember, I was very pleased with her help. I thought it was Paramount.

Hmm, Disney Quest sounds pretty nice this year, I will definitely order through them.

Thanks for your advice.
