Hi,

Help needed!

I have read lots of threads re who to buy tickets from and who is the cheapest etc. and came to the conclusion that Sunstyle are cheapest but am concerned that as we are not going until Sept 06 that they will take our money now and not send the tickets until Aug 06.

Can we lie and say we are going in Dec 05 in order to get our tickets early or will we receive tickets that expire in Jan 06?

Also has anyone ordered from Sunstyle in advance but got their tickets early? Can we request early release of the tickets?

Thanks
Sue

No. I gave earlier dates out and had tickets well in advance of traveling.
Tell them your going in January so you make sure they dont send you any discounted old tickets that miht die at the end of the year as you wouldnt know untill you went.

We used Best4Attractions earlier this year and were concerned about 'tight' delivery dates so we gave them a travel date that was about a month early, so we received the tickets in plenty of time. I wouldn't want them too early, I'm likely to lose 'em!

We ordered ours from Best4attractions too and our tickets arrived several months before we are due to leave. The guy on the phone said I could set an earlier date if I wanted to. I didn't but still got them months before hand.

You could also say that you are planning on going last minute between such and such dates so they would then send them for the earlier date. Say between Feb and Aug 05.
They would then have to be valid for the later date too.

I'd order them for whatever date suits you best.
Tickets for the main parks shouldnt have an expiry date anyway,and the ones that do expire only do so after they have been activated on your first visit.Some people buy tickets well in advance to beat any upcoming price increases.

Thank you everyone for your advice, Where would we be without the DIBB!?!?!?! I know I'd be lost and totally unprepared!

Thanks again
