Change in plans, we now will be getting tix seperate...Ticket mania?

[FINFAN]

Long, LOOOOOOONG story, but looks like we will now be better off getting the tickets for our upcoming trip seperate. We have ALWAYS bought from our local Disney store, but they only go up to a 7 day...looking for a 10 day hopper ( 4 adult) so, I feel pretty comfortable going w/TicketMania....and looking for feedback from others who have used them. I have the Mousesavers letter for the best deal that I can find...so, please share your experiences. tips...and we are now doing a split stay, so to me it may be less confusing to just keep out TicketMania tickets OFF the room key, due to resort switch, DDP part of our stay etc..any opinions on this? Do they tend to demagnetize like the KTTW ones do? ANY info will be greatly appreciated!


Thanks,


Pam

We used them - got a nice deal using the Mousesavers newsletter link. Quick shipping. No problem whatsoever. They were the paper tickets, but when we checked into Pop - I asked the CM if she could put them on our room keys (didn't need one more thing to hold onto and risk misplacing!) - she did it no problem at all. Not sure about all those changes - but I'm sure they can make those notations on there. I know with the DDP you'll need to have to purchase at least a day's admission from Disney itself - but from what I've read (and how I understand it) - you don't have to activate it - so you could use your TIcketmania pass this time - and set aside that separate ticket (the one day admission from Disney) to use at a future time (or to redeem as a credit when you purchase a longer ticket from Disney for future trips)

That is the plan...to hold onto the the 1 day base tix we need for DDP package, and to cut costs we are now using Award travel miles for more days of our trip than planned and eating cheap on that part, then enjoying the DDP on the latter part. Ends up saving us a bit and we get to stay at the places we like, and do not have to wait until the 13th to activate our park tix ( we arrive 2 days before) So...I tried to do a search, but keep getting a "service unavailble 503" message... never saw that before...but really do need a search as I am wondering about the demagnetixing issue....I think we will keep our tix seperate anyway....DH always has them as he is the FP "Dash" in our household....but DS is gaining on him!
