Question about Ordering Tickets

[Zomp]

Hey guys!

I think I know the answer to this, but not sure and everyone was helpful last time I started a thread I figured I'd start another one...

I have to buy Disney tickets this week. Looks like the cheapest way to do it is to buy through AAA for us. If I buy tickets online, will I receive the barcode right away so I can link them to my Disney Magic account or do I have to wait for AAA to ship tickets?

Since it says E-Tickets (electronic tickets, not the old ride tickets!), will they even ship me anything or do I just print something out to bring something to the park to exchange for a card? We're staying offsite so no bands.

Thanks for reading!

Many who buy from AAA go to an office and pick up the actual tickets.

If it's an e-ticket, you will not be sent anything.
You can put the e-ticket number directly into your MDE account and make FP+ reservations on your correct date.
If you don't have or won't be getting MagicBands, you can pick up plastic tickets at any WDW ticket booth or Guest Relations on-property with your legal ID and ticket numbers.
