Hi,

Not sure if you know but the above company has ceased trading. I noticed that they had been recommmend a few times on here so thought I would let you know.

This is from there website

Cheapest Park Tickets has ceased to take bookings as of Monday 5th Dec 2005.
If you have an existing booking and are awaiting tickets, these will be dispatched before the end of 2005.

Sorry for any inconvenience and we thank you for your custom.

Thanks for the info

We would have purchased most of our tickets from CPT. Anyone care to recommend any alternatives??

Take a look at www.ticket-truth.co.uk - hope this helps.

I finally booked ours with attraction-tickets-direct.co.uk today, they price matched by £8 which was a bonus and you also get a few extras such as phone card, florida mall vouchers etc.

Not sure whether the american sites work out cheaper, there are various other posts on this one.

Glad to hear ATD price match as I was about to book with them as I've heard their very good - which company did you get them to price match against?

Orlando Ticket Deals - although Ive gotta say they were reluctant - depends who you speak to but if you push hard enough Im sure they wouldnt quibble over £8 in £1000

Sadly, there are quite a few cheap tickets outlets at the moment, all trying to cut each other's throats on being 'the cheapest.' Try to ensure you use your cc to book (as a safety guarantee) and check for an ABTA or similar type of bonding. ATD remain one of the soundest companies from what we've seen in the last year or so, and we know their people quite well, hence we have a good idea of how reliable they are.

Another vote here for ATD, bought from them twice now with no problems and they price matched for me the last time.

For anyone that has already purchaced their tickets from cheapest park tickets, fear not, We booked ours 4 days before they seized trading and they were in the post to us within days

Another vote for ATD - we used them this year and got the cheapest price plus we got the actual tickets (not vouchers) though really quickly!

I normaly user undercovertourist.com for my ticket needs, but last week I used the co-op travelcare.

I think the reason why ATD quibbled a bit about price matching with Orlando Ticket Deals is they are the same company. I bought tickets with Orlando Ticket deals and checked my online CC statement last night and it states the payee as ATD London SW

That always sounds a bit dodgy to me, I'm sure it's not and I have used ATD loads of times and would highly recommend them but i am always suspicious when a company runs two companies one that is more expensive and the other cheaper.....is this just me?

They are a great company though real quick with the tickets.

Having hunted around on the internet the cheapest prices I could find for 4 park flextickets (from a non-ebay seller) were from a company called Transolar holidays (£95 and £76).

I asked ATD to price match but they were only prepared to come down to the same price as Orlando Ticket Deals - reason being they offer freebies. I asked if they could price match and forget the freebies but they wouldn't do that.

Although I've never heard of Transolar holidays they looked genuine enough so went with them at the weekend - good service, real tickets arrived this morning by special delivery saving myself a few pounds
