If I order through Getaway Today or through Disneyland directly, will I get them on time?

    So no tax at the DLR

    On the other hand, Florida does tax amusement park tickets, so the $67 a day ticket is actually $71.37.

When I called the Disney Store here in Washington, the CM said that I would be charged the WA state sales tax on top of the $358 because "all things in the store are taxable", so that would add another $40 on the tickets! I re-called them and spoke to another CM and told her that it says "tax included" on the DL site and she said that is correct and the total for 2 hoppers would be $358 at the Disney Store. Thanks again for your help.
