When/where to buy tickets?

[pjtm]

Do I buy tickets when I get there? Somewhere online? We are going for 4 days in May - Memorial Day week. I also need to look into buying the 5 for 3 parkhoppers? We are staying at the Hojo so I don't need the 5 for 3 hotel

By them ahead of time. Either on line or AAA or Disney store to name a few places. Be sure to check that they have the deal. You do not want to stand in another line at the ticket booth when you could be in line to go into the park.

 

[pjtm]

are there any better deals that I should know about before I buy my tix?

 

[pixiewings71]

Nope, the 5 for 3 is currently the best deal out there.

Bad news - You can't get the 5 for 3 without buying the full package.

What that means is that you would have to go to either Dreams Unlimited (the agency owned by this website) or straight to Disney to book rooms at HoJo or any other hotel (some folks are getting very inexpensive upgrades into the DLR hotels right now). Then, once you are set, I would cancel your other reservation at HoJo.

REally? It looks like you can from the website. I haven't tried to complete the transaction yet. Perhaps I need to go and try it.....

I looked for a Hojo's deal. It's telling me it can't find anything. Actually for most of those hotels on HArbor, it's not pulling anything up. So it appears that for July either they aren't offering many rooms, or they are all gone. Seems odd to me, because through Hojo's site, I can find plenty of rooms. but for the 5 for 3 deal, there aren't any.

The "Good Neighbor Hotels" reserve the right to limit the number of rooms they give Disney to include packages - after all - they can't/won't give all their business plan to Disney..... I would say those are long gone.

The terms of service state that it is a package deal.

I've pulled the fine print off the official Disneyland website...

I can now confirm that you can purchase the 5 for 3 park passes without a reservation for a hotel or any kind of package deal.

Try this link: http://disneyland.disney.go.com/disneyland/en_US/reserve/ticketListing?name=TicketListingPage&bhcp=1

If you go to Disney's website and directly to "tickets only". It's listed as a 2009 special offer.

Our Safeway grocery stores carry Disneyland park hopper passes.
Hope you can find the best deal! Have fun, cuz you're going to Disneyland!

I thought I had seen the tickets only link of their site, I was just going to search for it. OP, you can buy the 5 for 3 tickets only, just follow the link above.
