<p>So D1 is heading to Florida for a visit to Disney World as a grad present. Any one have suggestions for where to buy Disney tickets at the best price?</p>
<p>A local Costco near Disneyworld may offer tickets - do they have Costcos in Florida? They sometimes offer this in Costcos in California for Disneyland.</p>
<p>Go to Mousesavers.com. That site lists all the discounts out there.</p>
<p>I second the Mousesavers.com or the disboards.com Discouts and information all in one place.</p>
<p>holey moley…i work in Orange County CA, and live in LA. Your post prompted me to go online and see how much tickets currently run at Dland. $72.00!!!
Now I know why I haven’t been there for 12 years. WOAH.</p>
<p>Too funny missypie! I just joined Mousesavers last month so I could get their “secret code” in their newsletter!</p>
<p>Is your D willing to get up early in the morning to beat the crowds? If so I recommend tourguidemike.com. You have to pay a fee to use the site but it’s less than the cost of a guide book. (maybe $12?) There are great touring plans. We went for a week over Thanksgiving one year and never waited more than 12-15 minutes for any ride. There was one other family that I recognized as Tour Guide Mik-ers because they were at the same places we were every day.</p>
<p>OMG, I love to plan Disney vacations.</p>
<p>A few years ago my kids’ youth choir sang at Disneyland, then had from about noon on in the park. Of course, no getting there at rope drop because of the singing schedule. But each would text me where they were and I’d tell them what to do next, what to get a fast pass for, etc.</p>
<p>I did the Birnbaum(?) tour plans many years ago. Wonderful! I don’t know if she is as disciplined as I was back then!</p>
<p>another vote for mousesavers.com.</p>
<p>Sometimes tickets are combined with your hotel. Where will she be staying?</p>
<p>If she can wait until February, I can probably get her the package deal with my D’s cheer squad. ;)</p>
<p>If she’s staying on Disney property, and wants one of their meal plans, she will have to buy at least a one-day ticket to get the “package” rate. Since Disney “front-loads” the tickets so that the first 4 days are very expensive, and days 5-10 are only an additional $6 per day, it often makes sense just to buy the tickets with the package.</p>
<p>You can get a discount on the hotel part of the package through AAA, if you’re a member.</p>
<p>Mousesavers.com will list any package deals that come out as well.</p>
