I just got tickets for a trip in April and I got mine through www.workingadvantage.com. It was cheaper than AAA, Costco and the Disney site.

Check out Mousesavers.com. It is a site dedicated to finding ways to save at Disneyland resorts. It has information on shuttle services and hotels as well as tip from other travelers on the best places to go etc. I have found the site very helpful in planning our trip in May. I haven't been there in 20 years and am looking forward to rediscovering it with my three kids.

We just went in February with our 2 year old for her birthday and we looked on Craigslist. We also posted our own ad on CL that said we were looking for tickets. Someone who had tickets to sell responded to that ad and ended up meeting us at the entrance to the park and gave us the tickets. He also walked us to the gate and made sure we got in. We got 2 one day park hopper tickets for $90. It would have cost us double that. (our daughter was free). Just be sure they will meet you at the park and watch you get in so you know the tickets are good. He happened to be an employee who got free tickets and didnt need them. Good Luck!

Hi C. :O)

First, I noticed that you put "TIRED MOM OF 3" in your posting :O) Well, Disneyland will not be that relaxing for you. It will be cute and fun, but as the mommy, you will be very tired after your adventure.

To find tickets, I went onto www.disneyland.com to find the adventure. There are sooooooo many hotel choices, so you can narrow it down on this site.

If you're flying, most hotels have shuttle service for you from the airport. This info will on your hotels website.

For the Park, I would borrow a nice double-stroller if you don't have one, and rent one at the Park for your 3rd child. In the jogger styles, your kids can fall asleep in them and be comfortable, which keeps them less cranky :O) The less your kids walk, the happier they will be for a long day.

Have fun! I'm a little jealous :o)

Hi C., right now you can great deals for Disneyland. I think through April everyone goes as a kid. You pay the kid price. We have stayed right accross the street at the Marriott Fairfield Inn. Prices are great and location is perfect. There are also many places to eat within walking distance from that hotel. You can also get great packages through getawaytodayvacations.com. The prices are great and right now they are offering all sorts of free stuff. I think probably either the taxi or shuttle would be good. I believe all are kid friendly. Good luck and have fun.

I have found deals based on the time of year. The best having been in January - March. We stay at the Candycane Inn which we love. It has free continental breakfast and you can walk to the park or take the free shuttle. Have fun

He C.-
There are 3 things I know of: the first is to sign up on the birthday of one of your family members- they can get in free to the park. The other two are AAA Club, and Kern Schools Federal Credit Union. Usually you can get discount tickets, but regardless, if you have 5 people it's going to be pricey. THe food inside is pretty pricey, too, but it's a really fun trip. Make sure to budget for snacks, food, and a little shopping (just in case).
Hope this helps!

Hi C., You can get small discounts at AAA if you are a member there or sometimes frommCredu=it Unions if you are a member there. They are still just a slight discount. There is a place down there called the Disney Character Warehouse where you can buy low priced souveneirs. The stuff is the discontinued stuff so not current but still they have great stuff.

You can get in free on your birthday, so if you can plan to go on someone's birthday that would help out a lot!

We just got back from Disneyland in early March and had the best time! We stayed at the Anaheim Plaza Hotel which is within walking distance from the parks. Clean, cheap ($69/night), and we liked that the toilet/shower was separate from the double sinked vanity area. Beds were comfy but the water was a little chilly one morning so I would suggest showering at night. But for us, to save at least $40/night from other hotels it was worth it. Also, you can get free buffet for kids with each paying adult ($9.99) so we thought that was a good deal.

MUST SEE Small World if you have young ones. Also if you have girls, you must see the meet and greet princesses. OMG my children LOVE that. Even my 2-1/2 year old son. I would suggest getting there when the park opens, hopping on the train and taking it over to ToonTown. The princesses are there and you might get lucky and not have to wait too long in line. Also, Pirates of the Carribean.

There are a lot of restaurants within walking distance from the hotels in the area. Cheaper then the park. Good luck and have fun. We are planning our next trip for May 2009!!!

Look on Craigslist.org. There are always people that buy 5 day park hoppers, but only use 2 or 3 days. They usually sell the left overs pretty cheap. Or if you have a credit union, they usually have discount tickets. I think most hotels have shuttles to Disneyland, but I dont know about from the airport (We always drive there). Good luck and have fun! :)

You can try AAA. They have a travel service that has some pretty good prices on tickets. My husband and I have found some pretty good deals that way. If you belong to a credit union, they might have deals on tickets too. I know they do for places like Great America, Marine World. When I'm down there, I'm a HUGE fan of Medieval Times. They are a bit pricy, but it's a great show with some good food. You can even have your kids "knighted" or given the lord/lady treatment. It's a fun family show. There is also Knott's Berry Farm or Universal Studios. I hope this helps! Now I want to go!!

I have found that the cheapest tickets are purchased ahead on the disney website. I looked to see if i could find them chaper elsewhere, with no luck:(
Have fun on the trip!

hi, I know Cisco employees get discounts as well as anyone in the military. Dineyland website tickets cost less when multiple days are purchased. Getaway today packages are about $100 less than disney with a $20 process fee and different incentives, but nothing to really lose out on. Another differnce between the two is that if you ever need to make payments on your vacation package Disneys payment installments are of no charge, where as getaway today charges I think $25 per transaction. Have fun!

I went on Craig's list and shared tickets with someone. You have to be a trusting individual, but I saved a lot of money this way!!

I would take the shuttle from the airport and stay at a hotel within walking distance of the park. There are also shuttles and buses in the Disney area.
We stayed at a Travelodge on West Ball and easily walked to Disneyland. Check to see if you can find a package deal with them or Wyndham.
You can also check with anyone who works at a large company to see if they can get you discounts. If you know someone who lives in Southern California, they can get you discount tickets. The military is also a good place for discount tickets.

Costco and AAA have good deals if you want to a package deal.

Hi- We just got back from disneyland a couple of days ago. Shared 5 day hoppers with friends who used two days before us. That saves tons right there. I would not try to do it in one day, just too much to see. We brought EVERYTHING into the park. Water, snacks etc. and then ate one nice meal a day in downtown disney. Eat in the park and you'll pay at least $50 for a crummy meal for four. We got a hotel within walking distance went back and forth one day and the other two went in the afternoon and closed down disney at 11:00. It was late for my little one but at 10pm right after the fireworks all the fantasyland kiddy rides were totally empty. We were able to do them all in an hour. Most had waits of 30-45 minutes each throughout the day so this was big! Those are the rides I remember as a kid and a must see for little ones. Also utilize the fast pass system, check it out online first so you get it. We would just grab a fast pass on arrival and then check the board for rides with shorter wait times. Honestly, we never waited more than 30 min and that was only once. Finally, it really pays to check out tips online first. Stuff like go to the left line instead of right, tomorrowland is very quiet after dark and adventureland is most crowded first thing in the morning proved to be true and help save lots of wait time. My husband and I kept joking to just do the opposite of what seemed obvious or what everyone else would do and we had great luck and an awesome time. Ebay and craigslist are full of people selling discount tickets, but do be careful as it seems a little risky. Good luck and have fun!

Do you know anybody in the military? They have discounted tickets.

If you have Triple A you can get really good Hopper passes for both parks at a discounted rate. Plus, if you check into their concierge desk at the park you get coupons for inside both parks.
