1
Determine what type of tickets you need. You can choose from single-day tickets, multi-day tickets and tickets to the Extra Magic Hours at Walt Disney World parks. When you have your park plans in order, figure out how many days you'll be spending in them before purchasing the tickets.

Buy bulk passes before the end of the year. This is the best time to purchase before the annual price increases. Disney does honor unused tickets and passes purchased in the previous year.

Tips & Warnings
AAA members can buy tickets and passes at a 3% to 5% discount.
If you're a Disney Vacation Club member, you get an automatic discount of $100-$125 on all Annual Pass purchases.
Unused passes need to be used by the same person on the same days, according to Walt Disney World policy.
Steer clear of the timeshare offers that promise free and discounted tickets; these require you to become a part of a timeshare sales scheme that can end up costing you much more than you had planned.
Read all of the details of tickets, especially if an offer seems too good to be true.
Never buy a partially used card or pass from an unknown source; this is illegal and can cost you in fines and other expenses.
