Title: Discount ticket store
Post by: Jo68 on August 12, 2015, 05:00:17 PM
Hi just wondering if anyone has used discount-ticket-store to buy annual passes?
How did you get on?
They haven't any at the moment but we're suppose to be getting more today that are a good deal. Both fantasy and dream passes

We bought our son's Fantasy Pass from them and had no problems.

They sent a paper ticket that got him in the park, then we had to go to the passport office and get it converted to a proper pass.

They even took the trouble to send us a park map with the passport office marked on it.

We recommend them if they're cheap enough.

Hi thanks for the reply,
Got to ask did you already have your passes or did you buy them somewhere else?
I can't decide what to do save. A few pounds and buy off a site or just wait till we are there and buy in euros?!?!

We bought our (adult) passes at the park because we get 15% discount.

We bought our son's (child) pass online because they don't sell children's passes at the park.

Buying children's passes online usually works out cheaper. If you're comparing prices for adult passes, don't forget you may be able to get 10% discount if buying from the park and being sponsored.

They don't sell childrens passes at the park?

I was planning on using family discount and buying 5, now I'm confused. Will I have to get the children's passes online before we go?

Children have to pay the same prices as adults for passes at the park. The only way to get a reduced rate child's pass is to buy them online from a third party seller, either individually or as a combo adult/child deal from the likes of supertrips or the discount ticket store.
How many adults / children are you buying for, and what type of pass are you buying? Someone here will work out the optimum deal for you!

With the exchange rate the way it is it's almost certainly cheaper to buy in euro. Most companies selling in sterling set their prices at the start of the season and don't really change it much unless something big happens.

The Euro rate is definitely in the pounds favour. However £80 for a child's ticket bought in the UK is cheaper than the 179 Euros you'd have to pay at the park.

If you're looking to buy annual passports - do your homework. Look at prices if you buy before travel. Look at buying children's passes before you go. Look at getting 10% discount if you do decide to buy at the park. Look at what exchange rate you will get if paying in Euros, against paying in sterling before you travel.
