We use Attraction Tickets Direct (www.attraction-tickets-direct.co.uk (http://www.attraction-tickets-direct.co.uk)) . They're extremely competitive with their prices and will deliver real tickets, not vouchers, within 7 working days.

Would fairly confidently say that the disney store would not be the cheapest place to buy them.

I don't think the Disney stores in the UK sell park tickets any more, but you will find plenty of places online. Check out the Dibb sponsors to start with, but do shop around as prices can vary.

Do you just plan to visit WDW or will you take in other parks as well?

I would recommend the 21 day Ultimate tickets as these give the maximum flexibility to come and go to any park for each day of your trip, allowing lots of leeway for changes to your plans or just going back again to see your favourite things. This would only cost around £10 per person more than a 2 week ticket. You can hop to more than one park each day, use Disney transport and also visit the water parks and DisneyQuest.

As mentioned both ATD and themeparkticketsdirect are good.:wavey:

You can get a 21 day ultimate for just a little more than the 14 day one.

Def buy in UK before you go (not from Disney store though).

If you are planning to do non Disney parks then the Orlando five park flex ticket is a good buy, It covers Universal Studios, Islands of adventure, Seaworld, Busch Gardens and Wet N Wild water park, currently around £130 for an adult ticket.

Hi,
I queued in the DS in Plymouth and despite a long line of people behind me tutting very rudely because I was holding up the line they did sell tickets for all Disney locations.
For a guide the 14 day Ultimate Ticket was
Adult £180 and Child £150

So it is a fair bit more expensive that some of the places mentioned above.
On a personal note we priced up the DYW options (very confusing way if you ask me) and the UK tickets are much more affordable for most options.

We are going in June so will be buying the tickets in March.

Me & DW, DD 6, DS 3
Can't wait.

we have used maple leaf tickets www.mapleleaftickets.com (10 days expiring base ticket for around £130) we found them to be the cheapest especially if you get base tickets rather than those that allow you to hop between parks, www.undercovertourist.com are also cheaper

the seaworld bush gardens combo ticket is a good value option for 21 days if you intend to go over to bush gardens

Hi, also recommending the 21 day ultimate ticket for all the disney parks.
But also the 4 or 5 park flexticket to other attractions such as seaworld/ universal studios etc.

We bought ours through mercurytravel.net (same company as tickets4fun.com). They offer packages of tickets called 'Freedom Tickets which can work out cheaper than buying the tickets separately...they did for us! (we bought a 2 week disney pass and a 4 park flexticket).

Their prices on separate tickets are also competitive.
Hope this helps!

some times the disney stores do offers on the tickets they did last year so you never know they might this year:o:

Tinkerbell did you have to pay a credit card charge with Mercury Travel, I looked the other day and whilst their prices were really good there is a c.c. charge.

Hi again.

I didn't pay by credit card, sorry if i had known that i would have mentioned it. We had been saving so paid by direct debit.

Hope they still have a good deal for you!

Hi ~Tinkerbell,

Got my `simple head on` today, did I understand right, if you pasy by debit card with Mercury then there are no extra charges?

Do you get the tickets or vouchers.

Many thanks

Hi nuggs...If your staying on-site - would definately get the 21 day Disney ticket, there is nothing worse than it being right on your doorstep and not being able to visit a park, even if it is only for a couple of hours in the morning or evening..as for the other parks either the 5 park flex (if you plan to go to busch) or the 4 park if not...best prices currently for the flex is TPTD
another option is buying the a) Seaworld/busch and then b) Universal/IOA seperately works out about £10 a ticket cheaper doing it this way..
