Favourite place to order tickets?

[tinkerbell6]

Now that we're a month away from out trip (1 month from today, we'll be there! ) I'm about to order our tickets. We're going with either the 5 or 6 day (haven't decided which yet), with park hopping.

I think I've ordered direct from Disney before, and I know I've used another site before. What's been the best for you in terms of shipping? I'd hate to have to stand in the Will Call line at WDW to pick them up, though it would save the $10 shipping cost. And let's be honest....I can't wait to have the passes in my hands!

I always use Ticketmania and have had great service from them. I ordered my tickets online (Jan 26th) and we flew down to Orlando on Thursday and went and picked up out tickets right at the Ticketmania office without any problems.

I just used Discount Orlando Vacations. I ordered my WDW passes on Jan 28 and Universal tickets on the 29th. Both times I had problems with getting my credit card authorized through their system. A customer service rep called me within a short period of time after I e-mailed them witht the problem. It appeared to be a common problem they have with Canadian and British purchases. The rep said he would combine my orders into one. On Friday, I recieved an email that my tickets were processed and put in the mail. Now will see how quickly the postal service is.

The postal service appears to be reasonable, as I also order some spring training exhibition baseball game tickets from ticketmaster. Those were ordered on the 21st of January, printed on the 26, and I received them on the 1st.

Just an update. I received my tickets in the mail today from Discount Orlando Vacations. The order was put in the mail on Feb 3. I see that they also photocopied the back of the tickets.

We just ordered 10 day hoppers no expiry from maple leaf tickets and they seem to have good reviews and are very reputable and they were cheaper than getting them direct from Disney.

2nd vote for Maple Leaf Tickets.
We usually just pick the tickets up at their little nondescript office in the Maple Leaf Hotel on US192.
Dont be fooled by the fact that the office is little more than a coat closet in size....they are very professional ,friendly and give you a good deal.
I think you can order in advance online as well...if you want.

Well, I ended up ordering right from Disney....ordered on-line on Tuesday Feb 14th, and they arrived by courier right to our door on Friday Feb 17th!! They said when the order was placed that the expected arrival date would be Feb 26th! So that's some pretty fast service!

I will have to remember that Ticketmania for next time...I think I've maybe ordered from them once before? Anyway, next to do is the Seaworld at Par tickets in the next day or so.

Thanks for all the suggestions, everyone!

I found the cheapest tickets at Orlando/Orange County Convention & Visitors Bureau. Ordered on Monday and received them on Wednesday via Fedex (even with Fedex included still a little cheaper than the others).
