Orlando/Disneyworld Thread (Part 3)

Finch

Disney-cjd and atro1- thank you so much for your helpful replies. I think I have found a villa (Champions Gate area) for £400 (ETA: damn it! this is near Davenport, isn't it? Is this a rough area?)

I am now looking to buy tickets for Disney and universal studios. Ideally we only want 3 days at Disney, so am really reluctant to fork out for a 5 or 7 day pass- they are too expensive.

I found this site: (not allowed to give a link!) wdisneyw dot co dot uk


which sells this "2 day Base Ticket (2 day base tickets include a $5.00 service fee. We offer them as a convenience for our customers)". It seems too good to be true (my understanding is it is for 14 visits to a park- only 1 disney park per day).

Has anyone used this website, or has any advice for me on buying Disney tickets for 2 adults and 2 children for only 3 days?

Many thanks

Finch, Im really interested to see your results on this one, we too have been in the 5 day dilemma,especially as It my birthday one of the days and I'll get in free. We are getting the 5 park orlando flex ticket, that definately seems like a great package, as opposed to grrr disney who seem to want to have you for 5 whole days all to themselves

Finch Champions Gate is a lovely area, bit far away for the purists from the 192 but everything is there.
The ticket you are talking about and the site you have posted i would imagine is the official Disney site. A two day base ticket gets you just that 2 days at a Disney park! No hopping and maybe the 14 day bit means it expires 14 days after you use the first visit.
Try this site http://www.ticketmania.com/ and pick up your tickets from Billy Boys opposite Medieval Times on the 192. Very good and reliable. They do Universal as well.

Finch You have plenty of time to get your tickets. Have a look around at some of the British sites. Also Travelzoo come up with some weird and wonderful deals. Hang back and watch because most deals are posted on Here!!

I would also try the Dibb villa section. But for me the Dibb is a little to big and impersonal. But that is my opinion! not held by many others.

No I agree completely. The people are really nice, but the sites information is not always correct. And lots and lots of repeated posts. But lots of villa owners there who you can ask for deals

hi, seen on a couple of posts that you can get into disney on your birthday fro free, is this true as it will be mine in september whilst we are in florida? do you have to buy a weekly ticket to get one day free entry?

Craig will be able to answer this better than I. But I believe you just turn up on the day with your passport and guest relations let you in!! Or if you have a ticket I believe they give you the like in Disney dollars to spend. But it is for just you the rest of your party will have to have tickets.:beer: have a great Birthday.

You can do eitther

You can either turn up with your passport and you get free entry or if you have a ticket already you can take a birthday fastpass or a $75 dollar gift card. Take a look at Disneyworld.com as it has lots of into

I hadn't heard of the birthday fastpass.
