Theme Park Ticket Sales location ?

[Hallo from Sweden]

When preordering tickets from abroad it seems like the best deal to have a "will call", pick them up at any "Theme Park Ticket Sales location". Anyone who has experience from this, is that only at the parks or is it also at the resorts ? Opening hours ? We´re staying at the dolphin and arrive rather late (8-9 PM) and plan on going to MK early the next morning.
I woould save 60 dollars on this (5-day parkhopper)

Hi,
I believe you can do "will call" at the guest services windows at any of the parks and the two at Downtown Disney. I don't think you can do this at the resorts.

Hello.
I´m in the same position.We are from Germany and arrive late in the afternoon next April.After a long flight and with the jetlag the last thing I want to worry about are the park hoppers.I decided to order them in advance(couple of days before the trip) from Ticketmania.com.They have good prices,even lower than Disney advanced and they deliver free to any Hotel in Orlando and at Disney world.Lots of nice folks from this board recommended them and their website sounds good.
just another option.
Hope,it helps.

Lots of greetings from Germany

Unfortunatly you cannot pick them up at the resorts. Only the Guest Service locations at the park entrances.

Ticketmania sounded so good with the delivery to your hotel. Unfortunately they don´t sell parkhopper tickets only parkhopper plus, I just got an e-mail from them telling me that.
We can´t use the plus since we´re only in Orlando for 5 days and I think we will have enough to do just visiting the main parks. My children are 10 and 12 and this is their first visit to the United States so we will have so much new to take in, just imagine watching television, going to a mall and so on. The plus seems so unnecessary especially when going in december and you just don´t know if the weather is going to permit you to swim in the hotelpool let alone go to any of the waterparks.

You can use that plus at Pleasure Island also.

Don´t forget that the unused plus options and unused days never expire and you can also use them for Disney quest.If your kids like Computer games,so I´m sure,that´s a nice option for an evening at DTD.
Just a thought.

No, you cannot use the plus option at Disney Quest. Only the water parks, wide world of sports and PI.

From Deb's site:
Park Hopper Plus Pass - Provides unlimited admission to the Magic Kingdom Park, Epcot, Disney-MGM Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. Freedom to go from theme park to theme park on the same day PLUS a choice of visits to the following: Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon, River Country (open seasonally), Pleasure Island, and Disney's Wide World of Sports Complex. Visits with multi-day passes do not need to be consecutive and unused days and the plus visits never expire. You cannot park hop at the minor parks when using your Plus options. Each admission to a minor park counts as one Plus option.


From this site:
5/6/7 day Plus Passes - These passes allow you to move from park to park for the specified number of days on your pass. Each day you use the ticket, it counts as one day off your pass and you may go to and from as many theme parks as you like that day. There are several "plus" admissions with each pass. Plus admissions include your choice of Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon, Pleasure Island and Disney's Wide World of Sports. With the 5 day pass you receive 2 "plus" admissions, with he 6 day you receive 3 "plus" admissions and you receive 4 "plus" admissions with a 7 day pass.Order Passes Now
