Has anyone used way.com or get away today.com I came across both and found pretty good deals for our 2 day park hopper/universal studios and hotel. I am scarred its to good to be true! Any hidden coast ect.... :confused3
 
I've used getaway today many times. And I know many have used way.
 
I want to book right now but afraid of hidden coast so on and so forth. The 2day park hopper is like $50 cheaper on way.com and Disney Hotel is like $200.00 cheaper (just hotel) on Get Away Today.com
 

Question, on Get Away Today when you choose a hotel and it gives you the total is that before taxes (before you start filling the info out)?

Taxes are included but there is a $20 processing fee at the end and you can also add their "Peace of Mind Plan" that lets you make changes up to 72 hrs. before your trip for $30 (the cost of the different types of changes vary and are usually more than the $30, but if you are pretty confident in the dates, etc. it may not be worth it).

We have used Get Away Today a bunch of times for Disney and other Southern CA vacations and so far everything has been great. I have tried to piece together other discounts/deals through places like employee discount, AAA, etc. and have never been able to put together a deal that beats it. They also have a layaway plan now that lets you make payments up to the date of your trip rather than having to pay it all in one lump sum. I have never done it that way before so I can't say how well it works but it might be an option some are interested in. Good luck!:thumbsup2
 
can you use getaway.com for tickets only? on the website, I keep trying to buy tickets, and it keeps asking me which days I want and goign back to the hotel section

Yes, you can. Go to the Tickets dropdown and select Tickets. From there you can choose your tickets (ignore the "HOTELS" box that asks you to pick a hotel) and then Continue. The deals aren't as good, however, if you are not selecting a hotel. If you are member of AAA or some other discount program you would probably do better on just tickets.
 
Just a note, have you checked cheaptickets.com for your hotel? I looked up the Disneyland Hotel using my dates in December and cheaptickets.com was about $200 cheaper. I ended up booking the GCH through cheaptickets.com and my park hopper tickets with way.com. Saved a lot!

When you go to cheaptickets.com use promo code "cheapie" and that will get you 20% off.
 
I use Getaway Today every year for my DL trip. What I like is there are no hidden costs and I can make payments on my trip. I wouldn't go any other way.
 
How does their payment plan work?

This is from their FAQ

Can I make payments on your website?
Yes! Our vacation layaway plans are available for all Get Away Today Disneyland® Resort, San Diego, Carlsbad, Universal Studios Hollywood, and Ogden Ski Packages. Our layaway plans allow you to make as many payments as you would like on your vacation for up to three weeks before your departure date for a one-time $50 fee. Your first payment requires a minimum payment of $125, which includes the non-refundable $50 Layaway Plan fee. You decide how many payments you'd like to make, and how much you'd like them to be. The remaining amount will be applied to your total purchase price and will hold your entire vacation until final payment is made. Just select the Layaway Plan option at check out!

Hope it helps.:)
 
Ok so I just booked are hotel through Get Away today! 5nights king size bed guest bedroom (hopefully we can get a pool view) $200 cheaper than anywhere else I could find!,:thumbsup2
 
Can I use the Way.com tickets even if I live outside the US? Is it a Print At Home type of system?
 
From what I've read there have been many great reviews about way.com here on the disboards, but many seem skeptical.


I still need to purchase my tickets for my trip next Tuesday and am strongly considering ordering them from way.com. I called and spoke to an agent who assured me they are official tickets and I will have no problems. It just seems so good to be true as its not easy to find such significant discounts on disney tickets. I would hate to get there and have to repurchase tickets after already paying for them.

Can someone reassure me that it will all be fine and I should just go ahead and order them already? Lol

I keep promoting way.com because I have used them twice now with no problem. They have the best price that I have found. I used them In July 2013 and just recently for our Dec 2013 trip. Just make sure you read the info tab so you know if your tickets have magic morning and when they expire. They have been nothing but great for me and I love to save money. They are real tickets and I will continue to use them in the future until I find a better deal.
 
Get Away Today is a Utah based company and when I was doing my research on tickets myself, I noticed that they are actually located very close to my house. So I decided to go over there myself yesterday and investigate their office. I know they are legit, but I wanted to talk to the agent face to face because I had a TON of questions.

Let me tell you, they are MORE than legit. I am super impressed with them. Very nice offices. Great Agents. They gave me great information and helped me decide what was right for us. I am going to buy our DL PH passes from them for this upcoming DL trip, but I didn't book my hotel through them and now I am regretting it! They probably could of got us a great deal. I will definitely use them for a future vacation though!

I used way.com a few weeks ago and have nothing but good things to say about them! I was worried that I would have issues since I'm Canadian but I just had to order the APs over the phone and I got them e-mailed to me within 20 minutes!
