For those who have bought WDW tickets from Undercover Tourist

[MissViv]

I have bought tickets twice from Undercover Tourist and had them mailed to me with no problem. Has anyone bought the e-tickets?

Just wondering if I should bother having them mailed?

I have bought e-tickets. I prefer it because it's instant and more secure to me than the mail.

Etickets are easy-can link to MDE right away as you have the numbers quicker than waiting for snail mail

I did the e ticket for my last trip. So much easier that way.

Is there a significant difference between booking from UT and directly from Disney? Curious.

Well it will depend on what offers UT have on. Recently (not sure if it's finished) they were offering 7 day park hoppers for the price of a 4 day ticket. That has to be worth getting!

I live in Canada so I couldn't get them mailed. E-tickets worked, no problems.

I'm surprised - I live in Europe and have had UT tickets mailed to me on several occasions, as did a friend of mine.

Used them recently for WDW and used the eMail option. No problem linking them and getting my FP+'s. Used them last year for Universal and had them mailed and had no issues there.

Great way to save a few bucks to be used on an Extra Dole Whip Float.

My brother had no problem linking my e ticket to my magic band.

I use Touring Plans' ticket calculator tool to find the lowest price on tickets. They check UT and other ticket discounters.

I have always found some savings. Even if you just save $15 bucks, that's $15 bucks you can spend somewhere else. I just ran a search for 5 day tickets for 3 people, and the savings would be more like $140 from a discounter.

I also had awesome savings using Undercover Tourist.

 

[MissViv]

We are saving around $45 per ticket for a 5 day park hopper, that's quite a savings!

how do they get tickets? Also how do the people that sell tickets outside the park or buy your unused tickets work? I thought you only had a few days to use them and they were attached to magic bands now. But its been a few years maybe this doesn't happen any more?

I used them last Fall and chose the e-ticket option because I wanted to make my FP+ reservations asap. It was a simple process and I received the email immediately. I actually prefer the hard ticket though for souvenir purposes but I suppose the Fastpasses were more important.

Undercover Tourist buys their tickets from Disney (at a reduced rate) and can then sell them at a reduced rate. They also sell Disney hotels.

I would be very wary of buying unused tickets from an individual. They do expire 14 days after first use and Disney is putting an expiration rate on unused tickets now.

thank you I was curious, I remember you used to see people buying your unused tickets and I couldn't understand how that would work in todays environment
