Discounted Park tickets

[MeganMango]

Where can I find Disney park tickets that are lower cost than listed on the website? I'm going for 5 days in the parks.

If I buy them from the website, they'll cost $335 for standard admission. No park hopping.

I saw park savers has tickets for 5 days including park hopping for 368. Is it worth it to go through that website? Any other sites have them cheaper than either of those? I ask because animal kingdom closes at 6pm, and might want to do MK from then til 11pm. Which park is best to see twice?

I like rides and characters. I'm going solo and LOVE Disney. It'll be my second time but my first time I only got to do two days in the park.

I've never heard of park savers. We've used Undercover Tourist for several years. They are reliable, and you can add the tickets to your MDE account. If you subscribe to the Mousesavers newsletter, they have an additional small discount on the UT tickets.

ETA: You might want to hold off on the park hoppers. AK may extend their hours, especially if ROL opens before your trip. Or you may find yourself changing your mind about going to MK. You can always go to any resort concierge desk or ticket window, or Guest Relations and add the PH feature if you find that you want to use it.

Park Savers is a reputable site. I ordered tickets with them about 2 months ago and received them within 4-5 days. It saved us about $120 on 4 - 9 day tickets over UT which was already cheaper than Disney official. Also, I was able to activate the tickets via MDE without issues, so they're legit.

You think it's worth it to park hop through them? It's only an additional $30 or so. Hmmm. Also, my trip is the 6th-11th of March. Too late to purchase? Fast pass stuff?

Just book through Disney - you know your tickets are secret safe and can book your fast passes accordingly.

There's not much in savings IMO unless you want to listen to a timeshare...

If you are an AAA member they sell them at a discount.

There is no timeshare presentation. ParkSavers is a legit site. They use vouchers from places like Expedia. OP, you don't get the ticket numbers to link to MDE right away. I ordered from them a few weeks back on a Thursday, and got the ticket numbers on the following Monday.

Yes, if you think you want to PH go on and get them with Park Savers. They are very legit, the best deal for the ticket brokers. The only issue you have is you've missed your FP window by far. But since you've missed it already a few days won't make a difference. You can purchase your tickets now and get the codes to link to MDE in a couple of days and then book your FP. At least those that are left. You'll be out of luck for some choices.

Do they mail the tickets? Or send out a code? I'll go ahead and buy tonight.

They will email you a code, which you will link to MDE. It's a "will call" voucher that you can pick up with an ID, although you don't really need to.

They do a 2 step process

You will receive a voucher within a few hours of your purchase.
If you are local or traveling that day you can print the voucher, take it with your ID to a ticket counter and get plastic ticket.
or
You can wait 2-3 days and you will get a 2nd email with a code to enter in to MDE so you can link the ticket to your account, assign it to a member and book FP. At that point you no longer need the voucher and will not need to pick up tickets

Yes..as AngiTN says..it is a two step process. She explained it much more thoroughly than I did.

 

[PatMcDuck]

Park hopping over 5 days, for $30 a person, is worth it. (to me).

We used Undercover last time and they are legit and are super fast. Disney sometimes can have specials but lately they are always more than the discounters.

Another source that people often overlook is their HR department or organizations to which they belong. My brother works for Siemens and he gets a better discount than any of the places that are usually mentioned on the disboards. My health insurance company offers membership in lifecare, which offers discounts thru Tickets at Work.

Something else to think about: If you can manage to get a good discount on Disney gift cards (I'm talking ≥15%), you're better off buying directly from Disney and paying with those gift cards in most cases.

Only if the OP has a MB, or will be getting one before trying to enter a park for the first time. Otherwise, she'll need the plastic ticket from 'will call".

I'm a nanny, no discounts for me

Just purchased the tickets from Park Savers!

Good point. I tend to forget that not everyone has them

What's an MB? What do I need to have?
