Tickets At Work question

[highlander]

Does anyone have experience purchasing park tickets thru Tickets at Work? My company offers this perk and the price is below UT and direct from WDW. I have seen mixed reviews so wanted to see if any fellow DVCer has used the service and had a good experience. Nice savings compared with WDW pricing for 6 days with Park Hopper. To anticipate some questions, yes I'm a DVC member for over 10 years, staying at WL/Boulder Ridge, no I don't want an annual pass since we are not sure when the next trip will be, and price is also less than UT for 4 adult tickets. Going July 4th week and yes, we are not right in the head.

I bought two tickets from Tickets at Work a couple of years ago and it was a breeze to attach to MDE. They came to my email within a half hour or so.

Good to hear. No issues with making Fastpasses in advance? I am assuming not since you could attach to MDE.

Just remember to do the math. Whenever I looked at tickets from there, after you add in taxes and fees, it cost more than UT. I haven't looked since the ticket change last year. YMMV.

+1 after I added taxes and fees the savings vanished.
I believe tickets at work has different pricing for different groups.

Thanks all. It looked like taxes were listed, but I will confirm.

I've used them for both WDW and Universal tix. No issues ever.

Bought them last year for a friend and her family. No problem at all.

Thanks for your responses!

Definitely double check the pricing - when I was researching ticket prices for our trip I looked at TaW also through our corporate benefits site. The price appeared to be lower than all the other resellers I had checked out, but it was because the taxes didn't add in until I got all the way to the payment page.

I used Tickets at Work to buy our tickets for our January 2019 and February 2018 tripos. It was easy and I saved a little each time. You will get 2 emails. THe 2nd one takes about 30 minutes to come through and you use the number int eh 2nd email to link to MDE...very easy - We made our FPs 60 days in advance with no problems.

I appreciate the confirmation.

You were right. I saw the initial price and they show what a ticket plus tax would be from WDW. However, at checkout is when they add in the tax to the quoted price and the savings is very little. It is more than UT. I've always purchased my tickets from Disney and will probably continue.

I guess it depends on the season you are going. For tickets right now in February, UT was $1272, TAW came in (after taxes) at $1168. This is for (5) day non-park hopper.
YMMV, but whenever Disney opens up Jan 2020, I am buying through TAW unless Disney or UT run a discount.

Bumping because I am buying a ticket for DL right now and noticed the same thing. The T@W offer does not discount the DL ticket but does give you a $25 Restaurant.com gift card that we would use. However, when you figure in the $15 taxes and fees T@W adds on (really just fees, CA has not found a way to tax park admission - yet), that's a savings of only $10. I can get a 5% discount on Disney gift cards @ Target using my red card, so the savings is actually more like $2.50. Sorry, that's not worth the hassle.
