New Universal Bonus Tickets For Week Long Admission???

[Disney Talker]

Does anyone know anymore about the week long Bonus Admission tickets being sold on line at the Universal site?? I have been to Universal many times and this is an awesome deal....Do you know if they have to be used right away or are they good forever once you purchase them as the regular admission tickets are..thanks in advance..

They are good for seven consecutive days from the first date of use, must be purchased by 2/23/02 and are good for two years, so if you do not get to US until 12/04 you can begin your seven days of use then. It was a great deal for us, I ordered 2 adult and 2 child and now they're burning a hole in my pocket. We're trying to decide between May, 2002 or November, 2002.

This is from the UO website. It says "Tickets have no expiration date for the first use ". Where did you see that they expire in two years?

I've also noticed that Universal is not selling their 3 day, 2 park "hopper" passes any more (price was more than the 7 day consecutive pass they are currently hocking).

The nice part about the 3 day, 2 park pass is that unused days never expired (like the WDW park hopper passes).

Oh well....

Hi Everybody,

I received an email from Universal with regards to their Bonus Pass however when I click on it on their Tickets and Vacations Page I receive an error. Not sure what is wrong. Has anybody had an success actually accessing the Bonus Pass online?

Thanks!

[ivanova]

yes. had no problems at all accessing it online. reader's digest version: passes good for admission to both parks for 7 consecutive days (clock starts ticking from 1st day of use) for $85.95 per adult (don't remember the 3-9 child price).

you can also access it online by going to www.universalstudios.com and going to their ticket info page, then clicking on "hot deals."

I bought these 7 day passes and received them Friday for our upcoming trip when we arrive next Friday.

We had bought 4 park flextickets the last two years, but being we don't really plan on going to either SeaWorld or Wet & Wild, it didn't make sense this time and this good deal popped up thanks to you folks.

The Orlando 7 and 14 consecutive day Flex Tix don't appear to be available this year either.

Ivanova,

Flextickets are available as I decided against them, but they are there.

[ivanova]

Thefoyboy,

Thanks - didn't see the flex tix on Universals site. After seeing your post I checked out SeaWorld's site, they offer 14 day 4 or 5 park tix (is the 7 day flex ticket gone?).

Since we already have 7 days at Sea World (courtesy of Discovery Cove) and we're planning on the 7 day pass at Universal, the flex ticket doesn't seem like much of an offer (don't plan on going to Busch Gardens or Wet N Wild this time around).

Again, thanks for the head's up!!

I tried ordering the tix online and had a problem which directed me to a 1-800 number. I ordered the tix through a live operator and he said the tix expire in 2 years. I don't have the tix yet but that is what he said.

I've been trying to purchase on-line since last Thursday.
No can do.

Keep getting an error.

Universal even e-mailed me, hawking the tickets.
But I can't get on their site.

What's the telephone #......is it 1-800-UESCAPE ???

I have e-mailed US on more than one occasion with ref to these tickets, they are only valid for 2 years from date of purchase - which must be before the 23rd Feb. and you require photo id when you arrive at the park, they have assured me that this is only required for those over 16 years.

I ordered my tickets late on Wednesday evenining, they were shipped on Thursday, and delivered Monday morning not bad as they had to come to London, England. The children are counting the days until we visit, in August.

I had trouble too - not sure if it was our firewall here at work or the Universal ticket site itself. After about 10-12 retries I finally got in and ordered my tickets. I actually have two days left on my 3 day pass, but this was too good a deal. Plus I needed to order for my friend and her daughter anyway. I opted for the next day shipping for an extra $3.00 - not sure why, we don't go until August... Guess I just wanna have them in hand ASAP...

I went to the Universal ticket store and the page loads pretty slow. You can also call 1-800-U-ESCAPE for tickets.
