Need help with tickets

[jmpurdy]

Can someone give me advice on the best ticket package to get for us? Why is it so complicated now? Family of 6 adults. Staying Sun-Friday (7:00 PM flight home). Think we'll only need a 5 day hopper because we won't go to parks the day we leave (Friday). Also won't be going to water parks or any other place except the main parks. Will probably just hang out at the hotel or DTD the day we leave. Any suggestions on best place to purchase them. Is AAA still one of the less expensive? Also, will OKW allow us to use facilities after we check out? Thank you!

Yes you may use the facilities until midnight of day of check out except for facilities that close earlier (pools sometimes) and your room (refer to check out time). You may continue to enjoy theme parks until their closing, extra magic hours too if any.

If you decide at the last minute you want to go in the parks a sixth day you can just add that sixth day for about three dollars. If you stay in a park that is open past midnight you will not consume nor will you need another day on your pass.

Shop around for best advance purchase ticket prices, AAA, Mousesavers, Disney's own web site.

Non-expiring passes may not be worthwhile unless purchased with or expanded to 7 or 10 days (including days already used) and also you can foresee some future vacation that the remains will fully cover.

I've found Ticketmania to have the best prices.
Sounds like a 5 day hopper is what you want then. If you are looking to save more money, you can eliminate the hopper option ($35 per person)

I did see that people added an xtra day to their hoppers. This is a wonderful idea if we did decide to go into the parks the day we leave for 1/2 day. Is it definitely an option we can add on at the OKW desk? Thank you!
