Thanks ladyshopper
They arrived via email this evening - like others said appears through Expedia, paid for 3 days got 4

The small print at bottom says any 4 days in 14 day period.

Best price for a good few years, now just that wait at the ticket window to endure.

This offer is just too good to be true! In all my years of going to Florida I have never heard of a ticket like this
The price is so much less then Universals price that it must be unsustainable.

Remember you do not have tickets, all you have is a piece of paper saying you will get a ticket when you visit.

GOOD LUCK !

Yup always one

I would like to point out that I have had many bargains over my many years of visiting USA many "too good to be true" and no issues.

Like a lot of folks in here I do my homework

I bit the bullet and ordered this weekend got my vouchers today. Everything looks right with them but not sure how they are so cheap when Expedia.com charge more themselves and the vouchers are from them. We don't go until August if someone is going before then please let me know of any problems! I'm keeping fingers crossed for a genuine bargain.

All I am doing is pointing out that any company selling tickets at 20% less than all their competitors is going to go bust. It may be that they are doing it as a loss leader and I hope that that is the case.
Incidently since I joined this site a ticket company, a car hire broker and a currency broker have all gone bust leaving hundreds of people without their hard earned cash.
SO YOU CAN MOCK ME ALL YOU LIKE!

He has a point though, even if the point is kinda negative.

One of the reasons that vouchers are sometimes avoided is that if the company that issued the voucher gets into financial trouble before you collect your tickets, you *may* find that the voucher is no longer valid.

Some companies ask for the date of your holiday. They will then send a voucher to you immediately but may not actually buy the "ticket" (= pay the theme park company) until a few days or weeks before the start of the holiday. That way they can keep hold of your money for longer.

Of course, for the vast majority of cases there are no issues and everything works out fine. And there is nothing to suggest that these particular vouchers won't be valid.

Expedia make a profit on the vouchers they sell. They also sub-supply them to smaller companies (by the look of this arrangement). As long as they still make a small profit by sub-supplying then they're still making money and also increasing their buying power.
