OK, where is THE BEST for tickets?

[MrsB-tobe]

Hello :wavey:

We're travelling on 21 February so I'd like to book our park tickets this week.

We're going for 3 weeks and want WDW, SeaWorld, Universal etc. I had previously priced them up on Cheapest Park Tickets, as least costly option, but have seen they've gone out of business?

So who do you recommend we go with instead? Any v good recommendations, or warnings to avoid a particular co?

Thanks in advance

Have a look at the DIBB Sponsors (http://www.thedibb.co.uk/index.php?option=com_weblinks&catid=91&Itemid=22), these offer great prices and come with many reccomendations from DIBB Members.
Check out their prices and select what suits your requirements.

Please note that Disney doesn't like ticket retailers applying heavy discounts so you will probably find most of the ticket sellers are within a couple of pounds of each other. They also fluctuate, some will have a great deal on one type of ticket but be more expensive on another type. So it's worth checking what they have against what you require.

Also be aware of any hidden extra charges like credit card charges or postage as this can make a cheap deal less of a bargain.

Any of the sites below will supply tickets but at varying cost and postage/ credit card charges. Its worth looking about and knowing if you want your tickets when you pay for them or a couple of weeks before you go. If the later option some tell the ticket vendoe that they are going a couple of weeks before they actually go - a saftey margin.

I just bought WDW 14 Day Ultimate tickets and Seaworld from themepark tickets , if you go to the web site you will see on the left as you look at the screen 'Managers Speciials' with lower prices and a £5 delivery - you get ther tickets just before you go

i just ordered mine from atraction tickets direct but found out today that 365 tickets were £45 cheaper on overall cost

I checked everywhere and Themepark tickets are definitely cheapest for the 14 Day ultimate WDW tickets. Look at their Manager's Special, book by 31st over the phone and that is a great price.

We have also just ordered our tickets from themeparktickets as they were definately the cheapest and i did lots of research.;)

I also found 365tickets to be the cheapest for the 5 park flexis so i ordered those as well.

I will obviously report back if i have any problems with receiving the tickets. I used cheapest park tickets for my last holiday but it seems they have gone out of business.

I would say for overall service lots of Dibb members seem to like Attraction Tickets Direct as their customer service is excellent, they may be a little dearer but for the level of service you receive it seems it is worth the extra expense ( if you can afford it!!;) )

From my point of view i would advise you to avoid Best for Attractions as i would imagine a lot of Dibbers would. When you are parting with a lot of money you expect a certain level of customer care. I certainly didnt recieve this as was the case with many others. But as i say this is my personal opinion.

Let us know who you decide to go with as i am very nosey.:grin:

Thank you all for your suggestions.

In the end we went with Attraction Tickets Direct. I spoke to them (to do the Discovery Cove booking) and they were really efficient and friendly. The 21 day Disney tickets we bought were also £20 cheaper from them than from 365tickets.

So in total it was £858 (aghhhhh!) for ...

21 days Disney
2 swims at DC and 14 days Seaworld/Busch Gardens
14 days Universal/IoA

I had to book the DC swims in my married name, as that's what's on my passport when we travel ... feels v odd to be giving it out now, we still have almost 8 weeks to go! x

booked mine from themparktickets.com - the cheapest i could find anywhere. usually use attraction tickets direct, and am just hoping that them park tickets are as good and efficient as them.
