Orlando - Discounted Walt Disney World Tickets

Over the years, my impression has been that Disney does not discount on any of their tickets. This has changed recently as discounted tickets can be found on a global basis, albeit a marginal discount received.

Per Mary2e, I signed up for www.mousesavers.com newsletter and received my first mouse savers newsletter outlining Disney World ticket discounts. When checking the ticket prices at the recommended website, www.undercovertourist.com for discounted tickets, I discovered that the tickets offered to the public by www.undercovertourist.com and those to mousesaver newsletter members, the discount was exactly the same. Based on a 10 day Magic Your Way park hopper, water park fun & more ticket, the discount offered was $19 per ticket. Approximately $397 all in is the regular price.. This is not the largest discounted Disney World ticket offered though.

The largest discounted ticket offered for Disney World found to date so far that I've discovered is www.orlandoattractions.com, and the discount is $50 per ticket, selling for approximately $347 all in (10 day MYW park hopper, water park fun & more). www.orlandoattractions.com also offers discounted tickets for the 14 day and 21 day UK ultimate tickets. For $8 more per ticket regular price (at $405US after exchange of the pound, subject to exchange) you get the 21 day ultimate UK ticket. You can obtain the 14 day ultimate UK ticket for the same price as a 7 day ticket (get 7 free days). www.orlandoattractions.com, and www.undercovertourist.com sells the UK ticket at a similar discount.. although www.undercovertourist.com has a nicer refund policy. The Ultimate Ticket gets you into all of the theme parks, water parks fun & more, just like the regular ticket.. except you get twice as many days.. buy 7 get 7 for free, buy 10 get pretty much 10 for free. Confirmed by Disney, anyone can buy and use the UK ticket.. even Americans.

If anyone has better deals out there, please feel free to share..

Why don't you try the time share sales men? (Fits in with your "parking savings" IMHO :) )

CarolDisney1.. that's a good point actually.. I'm probably a timeshare expert having visited probably 15+ presentations over the past 8 years or so. I study real estate systems at these presentations.. my family owns commercial and residential real estate around Calgary and area.. so its my business to know systems.. and its nice getting a discount on tickets, free rounds of golf, etc.. while doing business.

As a note, the prices on my first post on this thread are prices WITHOUT a timeshare presentation.. so that means you can buy over the internet at www.orlandoattractions.com or www.undercovertourist.com. If you can wait until Orlando, and are willing to do a time share presentation, then buy your tickets when you arrive.. If you commit to a timeshare presentation, you can usually get around $150 off your ticket package.. At Crowne Plaza, October 2008, I negotiated $350 off our ticket packages that included Disney World, Universal, Cape Canaveral, etc. They quoted 90 minutes, but by the time we were picked up and dropped off it was 180 minutes.. my experience with Orlando timeshares is be prepared to spend more time what they quote, and not be upset over it.
