Dear Sir or Madam,
My family are planning a visit to Hong Kong Disneyland
this vacation. I’ve got some information about the ticket
prices on the Internet and now I’m writing for some detailed
information.
I wonder whether children under 3 need to pay for a
ticket and what is the difference between a peak day and a
special day ticket. Is it possible for us to get a discount if we
buy tickets as a group? Can we book tickets through the
Internet? Besides, I’d like to know if we are allowed to
cancel our ticket bookings if we cannot make the trip for
personal reasons.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours, Li Hua.
