Fastest timeshare presentation for Disney tix?

[staceywj]

This year we would like to do a combo with Universal. I am wondering if there are any specific timeshare presentations to do so we can get free tickets to the parks. I am looking for the fastest presentation or the one that offers the most amount of days into the parks...

Not very likely to get away in less than two hours.

Most timeshares will state a 90 minute requirement to get whatever they are offering

However... When you get there you will be invited to go into a lounge for snacks, coffee, etc.

When you are finally taken to the salesperson is when the clock starts. You will be invited, after a movie or something, to tour the property. Ths will be in a golf cart. You will be far from the sales office when the 90 minutes is up.

Once you get back you will still have more to go through, possibly a "manager" coming in to offer a better deal than the original salesperson.

Actual total time from arrival to departure will be closer to 2.5 hours rather than 90 minutes. Add in travel time both ways and how much time will you be spending?

Calculate your vacation time and hourly cost.

Take the total number of hours from the time you leave home until the time you return. Then subtract out the time sleeping or otherwise spent in your room. This gives you actual vacation time in hours.

Then take the total cost of your trip, transportation, tickets, lodging, meals, etc. Divide this by the number of hours. This gives you a cost per hour for your actual vacation time.

Now look at what you are getting, and consider how much it is really costing you.

BTW, almost any Disney ticket you get from a timeshare promotion (especially if you get a voucher) cannot be upgraded or modified in any way.

You will find that timeshares have stopped giving free tickets unless you book a stay at that timeshare and attend the 90 minute presentation.

Of if you are not staying at the timeshare resort they offer discounted tickets for attending the presentation.

They will give free tickets if you purchase a timeshare.

The day of getting free tickets is far and few between.

*** not to mention they say its 90 minutes but often times it is much longer. I would plan on a minumum of 3 hours for a tour.

Thanks so much for both of your replies and after taking your posts into consideration it is not worth it to attend one. Thanks again!
