When should I buy?

[Delux]

We are arriving Jan 6th 2005 We are going to buy annual passes. Should I buy them now? or wait til we arrive and get them at the park?
And if I buy them now, online, will I get them in time?

Thanks

Bit risky buying now with busy christmas post!

given the post at christmas and the fact it will be international i would defo wait and buy them there :)

You could certainly order them now and have them hold them for you till you get there. They only send vouchers anyway so I would think if you ordered them online you would get some sort of instant confirmation.

You will get an online ticket confirmation when you do the 'will call' option that you can take with you, as well as a confirmation number. All you need is your confirmation number and a photo ID to pick them up (passports work well, if you don't have a state-issued photo ID.) It's also always best to buy your tickets as soon as you know you want them. Disney is changing their ticket options as of January 2, don't know when or if they are doing anything to the Annual Passes. They could raise them then or they could leave them alone. It's always better to err on the side of caution.

I believe Whitequeen has a trick for ordering them online from teh UK, too.

Good to know about will call. thanks! I have been wondering about the new tickets. (By the way, live in US, but I did not even think about the mail being delayed because of the Holidays! Thanks for the tip)
