Last minute travel tickets cheaper?

[ckmiller]

Hi. I've been checking so many sights for great deals to Disney for this March. I saw what I think is downtown Hilton and Hilton Bonnet Creek for pretty good prices on last minute travel. The park tickets are also a good deal. They appear to be even less than undercover tourist. Any one have any experience with buying their park tickets through them? Thanks for all your help!

I can't comment on these vendors except to say that you should make certain of two things:

1: tax is included in price. Lots of time tax is not included in the posted price, also some other hadnling fees. UT prices include ALL tax (which is substantial) and free shipping. They also come with a photocopy of the code numbers onthe back, which you need if the tickets also get lost. They also give you a refund if the bag they arrive in is unopened (or at least they used to have this policy,I think they still do)- all policies I like.

2: Make sure you are not signing up for a vacation club tour.



If the Hilton you are looking at is downtown - then downtown Orlando is pretty far from WDW. Not to mention that if you try to go to WDW in the morning, there's a good deal of traffic. Orlando is a good size city. Disney is technically in Lake Buena Vista. I don't know the downtown Hilton specifically. Bonney Creek is located basically inside WDW property - though not on WDW property (there was once parcel of land that Disney didn't buy up.)

I'm pretty sure the OP meant the Downtown Disney Hilton. I saw it on LMT, too, for about $1 less than the HBC. I booked the HBC off the site, too.

OP - can't help w/ the ticket question as I am only hitting the parks for one day using a leftover ticket. I would do like the PP said and verify what the pric eis with tax so you're comapring apples to apples.

Very good things to think about! I am always afraid things aren't what they seem so I will probably get tickets through undercover. I know people are always pleased with their services. Thank you for your tips and advice!

Yes, I was thinking about the Downtown Disney Hilton. This is the one with the EMH, right? Thanks for your help! Enjoy your trip!
