Discounted WDW tix and MORE through your employer benefits

[crazymomof4]

Something I never knew about so maybe will help someone else here.
If I hadn't opened an email from the health insurer my husband's employer switched to (Aetna) I'd have missed this.
The plan we get through Aetna offers "Life Mart" which in turn is associated with several discount programs. Our son (who works with DH) got $10/mo off his gym membership.
So the other day, I got an email from Aetna saying "discounts to Theme Parks, Museums and more". I figured by theme parks they probably meant ones like Six Flags.... but no! Life Mart works with "Tickets at Work" and they have DLR, WDW and Universal tix. They say it's a "corporate discount".. We already have our tix for our next trip but we do need one day tix to Blizzard Beach for this trip. Found out the tix for our Oct date is $14/ticket less than buying through WDW. Not a shabby discount! I won't gripe *as much* about the health insurance now! LOL
I googled Tickets at Work to make sure they're legit and found this. More info if you need it:

Tickets at Work I've found to be hit or miss and not worth the time one has to invest to figure out how to use it. If I think about it and have downtime at work I'll look, but I don't think it's worth the hassle to save $5-10 and have to figure out how to make it all work.

I've found that Tickets at Work is usually more than Undercover Tourist when you add in taxes.

I too have never had luck with Tickets at Work. I just prefer to buy tix through Disney anymore in case we have to cancel for whatever reason.

I've had issues with kids tickets pricing the same as adult. Hidden fees that don't show up until you check out, unintuitive ways of choosing dates and times for things. I bought tickets through them for my extended family for Kennedy Space Center, the $2/ticket I saved just wasn't worth the time I had to put into buying them online, printing out all the confirmations, going to a specific ticket booth to change the confirmations for tickets.

The one time I bought my Disney tixs from Tickets at Work, I found it pretty straight forward. They emailed me the tix numbers and I was able to put it into MDE very easily.

From reading the fine print, it seems it would work the same with BB tix. Add to MDE. Once it's there, it's on your MB so I would assume you just scan in as usual.

I HAVE read that too. I plan on calling to ask what the final total will be before preceding online

I have found Under cover Tourist much cheaper than the Tickets at Work. I use the link through Mousesavers.

Do they sell free-standing BB tix.? I looked but didn't see them. Might not be looking in the right spot.

Also remember you are purchasing tickets through a 3rd party. If you have problems, you have to contact Tickets at Work. They are usually not open on weekends and hours may be different from where your at for your trip.
