Wanting to put a deposit on tickets for this year but haven't booked holiday yet! Any advice?

[jandwilk1]

If I purchase via florida tix and pay a deposit, then travel earlier than expected were deposit won't be available, can I just pay my balance and get my tickets sooner?
For example, I've put on the website that I am travelling in October and am allowed to pay a deposit but I have seen a fab deal for May, hubby is just trying to secure time off work. If I put ths the May date in deposit payment becomes unavailable, however I can't confirm anything yet andespite just want to secure tickets

I can't see why not, Jan. You'd still be purchasing the same tickets for the same year, but changing the date you settle the balance and require them. Best to verify with the seller first though. I find Orlando Attractions fantastic to deal with, but who ever you purchase from can confirm.

The reason that it doesn't allow you to pay a deposit for a May date is because you have to pay the full amount at least 5 weeks before your date. And the start of May is 5 weeks away. So, you'd have to pay the full amount straight away anyway.

If you put in an October date but paid off the balance next week, I don't know whether FloridaTix would immediately send out the tickets or wait until closer to October. Mind you, you'd think that they would send them out at least 60 days before the holiday to allow onsite guests to book fastpasses. So, if you put a June date I'd expect the tickets to be sent out in April, maybe.
