Question GOING TO FLORIDA - ADVICE REQUIRED PLEASE..

DO I BUY PARK TICKETS IN THE UK OR OVER THERE??

Had mixed comments about both options and wondered if someone can help me decide.

* If I leave it until I get there is there any chance of not getting into any of the parks - sold out of tickets etc?
* Where can I buy the tickets from? Just the parks alone or other places to??
* Is it likely to be cheaper buying them there?

Any help/advice appreciated

Cheers

If you do a search, Florida's been done to death on here.
However..........

Chance of not getting in - No.

You can buy from other places too, some places sell genuine Disney tickets slightly discounted.
Other places sell them heavily discounted and sometimes you can get them for free - but it means giving up some of your time to attend some timesharing meeting.

Cheaper there - I wouldn't have thought so.

Been a long time since I was there, but I just got the tickets at the park.

But do have a search on here, because you'll probably want to purchase a hopper pass.

Have a look here, loads of good information.

Tickets - theDIBB

I bought the Disney 14 day pass before we went and was more than happy.

we use DisneyWorld - unofficial guide to your disneyworld vacation, resorts, parks, rides and dining get the tickets shipped over here on airmail for a small fee, but buy from the USA shop not the UK one it saved us about £200 on ours overall 2 adults and 2 children {although one is classed as an adult}

Also I have never heard of the parks being that full they will not let anyone in.

It depends on the age of people going and what they want to go to the parks for.
Disney usually the best bet is a 14 day pass for unlimited entry to every park anytime.Good for kids but not the greatest for thrill seekers
Busch gardens and seaworld are owned by Busch so you can a combined pass for both parks.Busch gardens has lots of rides and not as crowded as the orlando parks.
Universal and Islands of adventure are on the same site.The studios is a bit pants to be honest,all the rides are old as the new big rides are in Islands of adventure.Hulk,Spiderman and duelling dragons is a must.You have to buy the express passes here though to avoid lines
I would get them all over here as that way you do not have to budget for them when you are there.
