I just check out mousesaver and they recommended Undercover Tourist, but I still think the ticket price is still too high there. Can anyone here tell me which websites that sell the tickets at cheaper price? I need 5 days MYW tickets or maybe non-expiration tix. This will be our 1st visit to Disney World.

If I plan to visit to Florida again in the next few years, do you think it will cheaper to buy Non-expiration tickets? I have one kid (5 years old).

In case we decide to non-expiration tickets, my daughter will have to use the remaining days before she reach 10 years old, is that correct?
 
Unfortunately there's not a lot of wiggle room in legitimate disney tix, and undercover seems to be the "best" deal for official tickets. You can certainly look at craigslist in orlando, or ebay, but it's very much caveat emptor when you go those routes, and if there are any problems with your tickets there is nowhere to turn as you will have bought unauthorized tickets.

I think the question of buying non - expiry tix is a personal choice. I'm not authorized to do it as we'll put them in the house and promptly lose them! :rotfl: Obviously a budget buster there for us :)

Undercovertourist is one of your cheapest safe options. Sign up for the mousesavers.com newletter. It emails out on the 15th of the month and usually has a link to undercovertourist. That link will have tickets at an even lower price. But don't expect a huge discount. It's a few dollars per ticket.

Maybe. It will really depend on how you plan to use the tickets. You will pay about the same amount for two 5 day trips as you would for a 10 day ticket that doesnt expire. But if you stretch that ticket out to two 3 day trips and a 4 day trip then it will be cheaper to get the 10 day pass.

Disney will not penalize a child for growing up. If she used the ticket when she was under 10 then you can bring the ticket and the child to guest services when she is older and they will issue an adult ticket with the same number of entitlements on it. No charge.
 
There really is no such thing as 'cheap' Disney tickets.

The BEST value in park tickets if you plan to visit more than once in a 12 month period is an annual pass.

We bought AP's last year and really got our $$$ out of them.
At the end of the year we ended up paying about $21 a day.

The no expiration option both 'IS' and 'ISNT' a good deal - as a previous poster said, it all depends on how much you can actually get out of them.

I definitely would NOT buy no expiration option tickets without the Park Hopper option - that way you can get more use out of the tickets on each visit.

Disney tickets are pricey - however - I feel they are fairly priced for what you get. PURE JOY AND HAPPINESS!

We did this one time and regretted it. I think in the end it cost us more. At the time we were not DVCers and liked to take advantage of the deals and most of them were for packages only which having existing tickets we didn't need. Now you *might* come out better since some of the deals have been for resort rooms only but then again it really depends as PPs have said because deals change from time to time and how you want to Disney can change too.

The Disney price lists, as well as the one in Post #18 of the sticky, do not include the 6.5% sales tax. When checking prices, see if tax is or is not included.

And any place where you are charged less than 90% of the Gate price is probably not legitimate and you have no guarantee if the tickets are valid.
 
and don't forget that Disney raises the ticket prices all the time...so for myself the no-expiration option, combined with park hoppers, is the BEST option.
I'm still got days left from my 2006 tix:cool1:

As others have said, use UT through the mousesavers link!
I'd never recommend buying e-bay, craigslist, etc.
 
I would not buy tickets from a stranger on Craiglist, ebay, etc. You would have absolutely no way of know if those tickets are valid or not UNTIL you tried to use them at WDW. If they don't work, WDW will not do anything about it, since you didn't get them from an authorized seller. You are taking a huge gamble.
 
If you haven't already, you need to get signed up for Mousesaver's E-newsletter today or tomorrow. They only send them out on the 15th and it has the link to the Undercover Tourist special deals just for their readers. They will NOT send it any other time. You can ask someone on here to forward it to you if you miss/delete it.

Thank you for all comments, I already get signed up for mousesaver's e-newsletter last week.

I have used TicketMania.com in the past. Have not compared their prices to UT, lately, however. Check them out, have base tickets, adding hopping, and adding non-expiry to them. Will give you a good comparison for UT.
