Mousesavers is recommending purchasing now.just wondering is it better to buy a multi day ticket now before the prices change
im looking o go next nov 2019 during the days before turkey day
Yes. Buy your ticket now if at all possible. If buying from Undercover Tourist, make sure you purchase an e ticket, as it won't expire until Dec 2019.just wondering is it better to buy a multi day ticket now before the prices change

LOL - yes! It's hard to tell what they're going to do as I can't see them suddenly charging $150/day for each day of our tickets.
I would anticipate like it is now, the more days purchased, the lesser the price per day is.
E.g. even using the lowest priced day in the pic, the price is $81/day. I have 9 day tickets on our current reservation. If I was to take the $81 and multiply it by 9 that's a total of: $729.00. The current price of a 9 day adult ticket is $435.00. There is absolutely no way they are going to almost double the price of their longer tickets. (And if they do, I'll be priced out of Disney just as I have been priced out of Disney cruises. )
I guess all we can do right now is wait until Oct 16th and then take bets on how long it takes all of us to crash their system as we run our numbers! I give it less than 5 minutes from release before Stitch and Donald are everywhere!!!
It's been discussed off and on and no one knows but I personally feel that they'll apply the same parameters to the ticketsOkay, forgive me, I read the first 20 pages and I've seen this asked but not answered:
How does the "onsite packaging" guidelines apply to DVC members? Anyone know yet?
Consensus from everyone is buy nowjust wondering is it better to buy a multi day ticket now before the prices change

They are static not dynamicHave they said how many times through out the year they will adjust the prices on the calendar? Is it once a year or will they change periodically? sorry if already asked.
Wherever you wishcan you buy tickets from under cover tourist or can they be brought from disney
Good question. Personally, I would purchase a gift card in the amount closer towards the higher end of the range and then leave it to them to purchase the ticket.What happens if after the policy change someone wants to give you park tickets as a gift but you don't know when you're going, especially if it involves someone not staying on Disney property? Do you have to just pay a difference if you go at a different pricier range period?
I think they released the ticket pricing news to generate more of a frenzy for their January Stay/Play/Dine packages. To announce ticket pricing one day before releasing resort packages is amazing timing.I wonder if Walt Disney World released this news as early as they did to generate some ticket sales late in the quarter. I'm not exactly sure how they'd book this accounting-wise - whether it would be revenue now or if they defer it until people use the tickets. Either way it either strengthens their balance sheet or their income statement at the end of the quarter if they were looking for a little push in ticket sales... Just a thought...
Obviously they also released it early to avoid negative backlash if they didn't provide a heads up as major changes like this could freak people out.
Guests will be able to alter/modify any purchased tickets at will via their MDX account. Guests will have control of their tickets whether bought from a third-party or from Disney.Do you think the $50 flexible fee could be added on at any time (for example, if deciding at the last minute to make the trip later).
If so, it would seem there would be no incentive to buy the flexible ticket initially.
If not, it would seem very foolhardy to buy a non-flexible ticket if there was any doubt at all about the exact travel dates.
I find it interesting that Disney currently has 3 tiers of park pricing: value, moderate and peak (not positive about names). The video clearly shows many more pricing options so it appears the pricing may vary day to day and week to week a lot more than it does currently.
That's because the calendar prices are based on the number of days of tickets a guest chooses, and your start day of your days is an AVERAGE of the value, reg., peak days within your window of days.
SEE the Miusesavers article. The multi-day ticket discount is already factored into each day of EACH multi-day calendar.
The computerized system has TEN different calendars, one for each ticket length from 1- day to 10-days, ALL based on length of ticket window averages of value/reg./peak prices.

I think it is possible that, if you don't add the flexible option, a ticket you buy after Oct 16 may be less than a ticket you buy now.
Good catch!
I am a DVC member and definitely don’t do annual passes. We switch between DL, DW and Aulani. Our flight to Florida are 900 + tax, so I am definitely not going down more than once a year.I know we don't have all the information yet but from what others have posted it sure looks like Disney is focusing on packages as being able to use the tickets for length of stay - nothing has been said so far about room only with tickets purchased directly from Disney.
Not really sure of the numbers but I think there are a fair amount of DVC members that do not purchase the DVC AP. Many DVCers only take 1 trip a year or every other year depending on how many points they have. Before moving to Florida the only time I had a AP was if we knew in advance we were doing multiple trips in a year. If we were only doing 1 trip or before DVC got a discount on APs we always purchased tickets for the number of days we were there.
I looked at the dates I am going. They are currently Value and Regular days. If I had Peak days, I would definitely be buying now. There won't be a decrease for Peak days. Now, in my case, I can't see even the Value days being much cheaper than now. If I wait, I can't go back in time to get today's tickets, but if I buy now, I could possibly save those tickets for another trip (next year) or sell them to someone going on Peak days. I'll probably just use them.Hmm... I was just getting ready to pull the trigger on purchasing 7-day tickets for our March 2019 trip.
But do I want to gamble that the price might be lower if I wait and purchase the non-flexible option? Does anyone think that would be a good gamble?
A ticket, whether it’s an eticket or plastic, is still a ticket linked to your MDX account.Does anyone know if an e-ticket purchased through UT can be upgraded to an AP (at park)? I’ve always had an actual ticket to upgrade. I realize all the rules may change, but calculating my risk for buying a park hopper now for my March trip with plan of upgrading to a Platinum pass for a second trip in December.
