Need Orbitz Help - June 2015

[DCTM]

I need some Orbitz help pls!
We already have a condo booked in Orlando - May 30th - June 4th
Me, husband, 17 yr old and 7yr old
We were planning on checking into a WDW hotel on June 5th and out on June 9th (4 nights)
and purchasing 4 days tickets.

Our travel agent quoted us the following price for 4 nights/4 day tickets:
$437.40 (includes tax) at POP for the 4 nights
Plus we were going to purchase 4 day base tickets $1108.03

What is the % back from Ebates if I book tickets or do I have to book the room and/or tickets from Ebates to get bash back?

Orbitz; looks like I can book a room at POP using promo code TRAVELHAPPY for 15% off.
The cost is different if I just put in 2 adults vs. 2 adults and 2 children.
If I book 2 adults can I add the children later to the reservation at no cost?

Orbitz; Tickets - have the buy 3 get 2 days free tickets w/ park hopper. $1355.76
The cost is more than the tickets above but include an extra day and park hoppers.
BUT if we purchased these could we use them on June 4th even though we are not checking into a disney hotel until June 5?

Confused!!! Any help is appreciated!!

Right now the cash back for ebates is only 1 or 2% for tickets and room (in past 2 years it has been 20% for a short time around presidents day-but rumor is ticket prices going up too). Only book the 2 adults, then call or use chat feature to ask orbitz to add kids - I did this last week for CBR for the extra day we needed-I waited a few days after original booking to call and have kids added-the orbits CS gave me my Disney confirmation number then as well-it can take 48 hours before the kids show up in MDE though.

And yes- you can use tix before checking into WDW-just be aware that the days expire 14 days after 1st use...and you will only be able to book fastpasses 30 days out from offsite stay, but 60 days out from onsite stay (just to complicate things)

We are doing the opposite of your trip-onsite first then off LOL.
