Having tickets shipped to your house from Disney?

[klacey1]

I'm going to be in Orlando for a conference in late June and am going to do a day at AK/MK/Epcot (ambitious, but I've done it before and know we can do it ). For the first time ever, I'm ordering tickets online from the Disney website. With standard shipping, it says I'll get my tickets "after May 4th" if I order today. My 30 day for FP+ is May 20th. A few questions:

1. If I buy the Epcot/AK/DHS version of the one day ticket (with the plan of going to AK first and upgrading to a park hopper at the the there, before going to MK since I'll have saved up more Disney Rewards Dollars), will I be able to make FP+ for MK or will it block me?
2. Does it really take 14 days for the tickets to arrive? When would be the latest date to order tickets to be sure I'd have them in time to do FP+?

TIA!

You should just order tickets as "Will Call."

No need to wait for tickets' arrival as you can immediately put the ticket confirmation number in your MDE account and make FP+ reservations as soon as your window is open.

Oh, good to know! Hmm, I may still get them shipped as I'd prefer to have them in hand when we get to the first park since we'll be coming from offsite and I'll want to get in as soon as possible without waiting in line. But thanks for letting me know I don't need the physical tickets to do FP+. Thanks!
