Online Ticket Purchases

[wicket2005]

Right I am in the process of deciding who to buy my tickets from. Usually I use a TA to buy the tickets but after looking through the net, I can save about £200 just by ordering direct. So I would be grateful if you could answer any of these questions for me.

1 Which company have you used to buy tickets online?

2 Have you actually used the tickets?

3 Would you recommend the company?

Many thanks for any help you can give.

We used Ticketmania this year for our Disney tickets as we couldn't get the tickets in the UK. I made a mistake on the form and the phone went within 5 minutes of me ordering. My mistake was sorted out without hassle and the tickets arrived quickly. I would definately recommend them.

We used onlineflorida for our flexitickets as they offered 1/2 price child tickets at the time. We didn't pay for the quick delivery as we had a few months. The tickets arrived OK but they took longer to arrive than the ones from America. Again the company was fine but if your in a rush I think you'd need to pay for the faster delivery.

I'd have a look through this forum as there are a few threads on online sellers. I think the companies you find on this site will be fine.

We ordered our tickets from attractionticketsdirect. We ordered 7 day Disney and 3 day Universal tickets. They arrived within the time specified. We have used them at Easter without any problems I would certainly use them again.

Thanks for you help. I will have a look at the sites you all mention.

Another vote for Ticketmania.

I got our Disney tickets for October throught them and they worked out the cheapest. They came through the post really quickly - didn't have to pay any extra for p&p and we've got the actual tickets rather than vouchers which is a bit plus point.

We used maple leaf as well and they were excellent we had them posted to us and they arrived within a week . The prices are in dollars but at the time they were much cheapear than any website in uk. Would highly reccomend even emailed to make sure they had arrived o.k.

 

[wicket2005]

That sounds good. I always like it when internet companies confirm things via email and it is an added touch to do a check up email.

Maple leaf premium 7 day pass is $279.00 with the exchange rate at the moment I think the £141 I paid with ATD is a better offer.

I've used Ticketmania & attraction tickets direct with no problems.
Mapleleaf were ok but I wouldn't use them again

As promised - I received our tickets today!! I ordered them online on Sunday evening and opted for the Gold option. So it's a big thumbs up for www.cheapest-park-tickets.co.uk from me! Getting more and more excited by the minute!
