Park Tickets

[Katti Michele]

I couldn't figure out exactly where to ask this question, so please forgive me if I should of asked somewhere else.

I'm currently planning a Father/Daughter trip with my dear old dad. I'm trying to price out all of the options so I can make sure we are getting the best deal. Because of this, I'm trying to price it as a package, everything separately, etc. If we do a room-only reservation using the GP % off code, we are not required to buy park tickets.

My question is this: Has anyone ever bought their park tickets from someone besides Disney (like websites and such)? I priced them with a website (not sure if i'm allowed to say the name ) and they're almost $100 cheaper for the 6-day park hoppers. Just curious as to others' experience with this! Thanks for any help!

bought from Undercover Tourist a couple of times. Mousesavers has a link in their newsletter that provides a slightly larger discount than on their site. The service for the times I have used them has been excellent. Tickets have usually arrived three or four days after ordering them.

They are supposed to keep your ticket numbers in case there are issues. I would still photocopy the back to avoid the extra time.

Two things to keep in mind:

1) Buy from an authorized Disney reseller. There are a few of them out there.
Disney will treat these as if you bought from them

2) Be sure to read the fine print. Some sites quote without tax and/or shipping others quote an all inclusive rate.

If you have questions about ticket particulars, look through this thread. It's subdivided so you can find the different topics pretty easily. The author is a CM with ticketing experience.
