Get Away Today vs Last Minute Travel

GAT won't allow just a ticket purchase online, you have to call. Anyone done this recently and are they going to try and hassle me into a package with them?

And LMT, do they send actual tickets? Or is this the one you have to pick up at the window at DL? Is it a hassle? I'd rather not wait in a long ticketing line, KWIM?

Not sure about GAT, but you do pick up your tickets from LMT at the ticket booths with a special voucher that LMT emails you.

GAT gives a voucher too.

I have purchased tickets only online through GAT several times. Never an issue. What I like about them over other places is that you can return your tickets (for a $15 fee) if your trip has to be canceled. I like that kind of insurance when buying 5 tickets for our family.

LMT there is no cancellation fee before pickup.

Right now the online purchase without a package is unavailable.


Either way you will have to go to the ticket booth to pick up your tickets.

Can you pick up GAT tickets at at DL hotel if you are staying in one? That might be a way to avoid ticket lines, right?

Yep! I just bought our 5-day parkhoppers and Goofy's Kitchen vouchers today over the phone from GAT. They were very helpful and it was really quick and simple. They told me I could pick up my tickets at the DLH desk when we check in, and I received my email receipt within a few minutes.

AND, I saved about $140 total!

How far in advanced do you have to make your purchase through LMT?

Is it cheaper to buy Goofy"s kitchen from GAT?

My sister's friend just did a ticket-only purchase over the phone a few days ago and it was fine.

I've used both LMT and GAT for tickets only. Had good experiences with each. I used GAT most recently (April) and you actually don't need a voucher to pick up tickets. Just your ID, then they look it up in the computer.
