Help getting cheapest tickets

[horsegirl]

Normally my brain functions okay, but for some reason, I am doing a terrible job finding the cheapest 2 adult, 3 kid 10 day, nonexpiring, hopper plus tix. I have the mousesaver code from the Nov newsletter. Every time I search and put the tickets in my cart, I don't go through with it out of worry that I haven't found the best deal. I am driving myself nuts! Oh, and I have considered APs as next year we will be going feb 2006 and jan 2007, so that factors in. Only problem is that if something we to happen and we couldn't go on one or both trip, we'd lose any savings, so am thinking we better stick to MYW tix...do folks agree with that?

Anyone willing to give me the bottom line on what they find? Does anyone else ever doubt their prowess? Thanks!

I had the SAME problem when I bought our tickets a few months ago! I was buying 4 adult tickets, the ultimate park hoppers, non-expiring with options. The total was $1400 or so and I just coudln't push that final button. We had the money for it, hubby said fine, I just had this fear. Here is what I did. In the middle of the transaction (this was a Saturday morning) I called Ticketmania. Got a person immediately, no hold, they answered my question and I felt at that point that if I could call and talk to them whenever I wanted then I would be o.k. My husband finally yelled at me "just do it!" so I did. I had checked and re-checked that others had never had any problems with their order, it's just a lot of money I guess. The tickets came exactly when they said they would, along with all kinds of extra Orlando coupons, maps and info. We just got back from our trip and had no problem with the tickets whatsoever and even enjoyed Disneyquest for the first time as one of our options.

You sound like me. I can check and recheck but its really hard for me to pull the trigger.

AP's may be the best way to go this trip if you are sure you are going in Feb 06. You had mentioned that something could come up but would you more likely forgo the 06 trip or the 07 trip? I think that the savings with an AP are greater than the risk of not going. Plus you get the opprtunities that passholders get ie. DDE, Room discounts.

You can also just buy one AP, take advantage of the discounts and get regular passes for the rest of the family. That way you don't risk so much.

I am not sure, but can you save much by not getting 10 day passes non-expiry? maybe you can get them expiry, use the days you need and then pay to upgrade and convert the remaining days to non-expiry. That way you could pay for fewer non-expiry days?

The fee to add no-expiration is based on the original number of days on the ticket, not the number of leftover days.
