buying tickets in uk

Hi
Do you have any website suggestions for good ticket prices (and reliable) for theme parks.

Thanks

Hi welshlady,

We always find the lowest price we can on a website and then take it to Thomas Cook or Thomson and they will always price match the cheapest ticket price! Just print out the price and take it along with you.

Then there is no need to worry about reliable ticket sites and also the travel agent you choose will normally let you put down a small deposit and then pay the rest of the ticket price a few weeks before departure

We always used orlando ticket deals (when staying offsite). Google them, they will be the first to come up, really reliable, posted the tickets to us and handled everything really well!

I've used Attraction Tickets Direct in the past with no trouble at all, will probably use them this year too for our Universal tickets

Try Kenny's thread above, he doesn't update it anymore but the links are there to check latest prices.
I have heard Floridatix have another sale tomorrow(Sun) they were the cheapest for Blue Man Group tickets I bought recently (used them last night)
I have bought a few from Travel Republic in recent years, always seem around the cheapest.

I've found that going direct can sometimes be just as cheap and with good perks. The Disney 14 day ticket deal is excellent £230 for 14 unlimited days including park hopping, dquest and water parks plus you can use all Disney transport. And you know you're getting genuine tickets!

I just looked direct and its showing £236, is there a link to get it to £230?
Same ticket elsewhere will be under £230, Floridatix are £227.05 after using code summer5
In all the years I have been on here I have never read of anyone not getting genuine tickets, there are some great ticket sellers out there. As I mentioned in first post I bought Blue Man Group recently, at £30pp, direct they were £45pp with AP discount £55 without discount.
Well worth shopping around

Hi Thank you all for your suggestions. I had planned to get the Orlando Combo ticket 8 parks for about £333 (4 disney, 2 water parks and 2 universal) was also planning Discovery, Sea World and Aquatica which will be 11 parks in 14 days ( rest for shopping or lazing by pool). Has anyone bought this ticket before - any drawbacks.

Hi Welshlady, fellow Welsh person here.
We have used both Attraction Tickets Direct and American Attractions - and Disney direct.
Prices are similar, but the main advantage of using a non-disney source is that you will often get real tickets. When we bought tickets from Disney (or in reality their UK appointed travel agent) - you receive a paper voucher that you can then exchange for tickets once you get to Florida. This works fine, but it does mean that on your first day you may need to go to a ticket booth and get the physical tickets.

Have fun on your holiday

there is also the option of getting them from the disney stores if you have one local. my store usually has to order them in for WDW which can take around 2-3 weeks but some of the larger stores keep them in stock. they are real tickets and it's nice to actually have them in your hand
