etickets will get the info to you faster for input to your MyDisneyExperience account.
(Some need to book FP+ sooner.)
No need for actual hard tickets.

Today.

And (unless you are REQUIRED to buy tickets as part of a resort package,) buy from a ticket reseller (Undercovertourist.com, or Parksavers.com, or Mapleleaftickets.com, or...) not from Disney.

Thank you! I was going to purchase from undercovertourist.

FWIW - which isn't much since we don't even have a trip scheduled.

I used official ticket center - link from Touring Plans
3 adults
2 kids
4 day with 5th day free
total was 1659

40 bucks less than mousesavers link to UT.

I also used official ticket center last year as well.

If I purchase a 5-day hopper from undercovertourist today (2/11/17) and use it for the first time on 4/24/17, then upgrade it to an AP on 2/25/17, will the AP expire 2/11/18 or 4/24/18?

AP upgrades expire on the date that the original ticket was first used.
That's what makes it an UPGRADE of the original ticket.

In your example, the AP anniversary date would be 4/24/18.

If someone has time, I would love to have the link used in the latest mousesavers newsletter. I just checked and I haven't seen a newsletter or hot deals announcement since December.

 

[100AcreWood]

Thanks for the link. Tickets are ordered.

why buy from a reseller? I need 4-5 day base tickets but it seems to only be a few dollars cheaper than direct from Disney and I want to use my Disney rewards. Since we do not know the price pf multi-day tickets yet should I buy the tickets today?

I have been telling people this for a while, few listen and end up paying more
OTC and UT both are great but why pay more???

Are you taking into account tax and shipping?
It should be more then a few dollars

Tickets purchased from a reseller can be PRICE-BRIDGED if the guest decides he needs to UPGRADE
a ticket.
Stand-alone tickets bought from Disney will not be price-bridged.

But, if you have a specific REASON you want to buy from Disney, by all means...

It depends on WHEN you buy, and what tickets that you need.
The deals change at the various reseller sites.

Free enterprise and competition at work.

Just bought our tickets (4 day ph + 3 days free) from undercover tourist for our Oct trip. I couldn't remember how long their tickets usually last after price increases and wanted to be on the safe side.

When will these increases cease? My goodness we're not far removed from a $200.00 ticket to MK during peak season. I know it's a business but the prices are getting ridiculous.

IMO, we are VERY far removed from a $200 ticket to MK.

(But, I don't LIKE any increase, that's for sure.)

that makes sense.

Tickets are expensive but hotels are we're they really stick you imo

 

[RachaelA]

We don't know multi day increases yet correct?

 

[bluecastle]

I guess my buying tickets ahead of time and putting them away until I have my next trip planned will no longer be worthwhile. I have watched price increases happen, knowing that I have avoided them by getting mine early. This new policy puts an end to that.
