1 day at Universal??

[foxymum]

we have 14 day Ultimate Disney tickets & are also planning to go to Seaworld, but now i am thinking i want to go to Universal aswell! we may never go back to Florida so as we are there why not (!)
as we are only there for 2 weeks we cannot buy the 14 day Universal tickets (too much money & would be a complete waste) so is there any chance we could go for the day pay gate price? or is this going to be VERY Expensive?
many thanks in advance

Unfortunately you don't get any discounts for 1 day tickets.
A 1 day 1 park ticket is $89.48 incl tax = £57
A 1 day 2 park ticket is $121.43 incl tax = £77

If you wanted to go between the 2 parks the cost is £77, the 14 day tickets cost only £3 more at £80, so you can see why very few people buy a day ticket and go for the 14 day ticket.

Wayne's right about the price dif between the 14day ticket it's why we are missing out on it this time even though we really want to go and see Harry Potter Land. We will do it next year when we are there longer and can go twice or more!

If you think this may be your only trip though I would say it's a must do. Is their any parks other than seaworld your thinking of doing ? that are also on the Orlando Flex ticket as this may be an option for you.

thankyou both for your answers, well in an ideal world i would love to do them all!!!
we can get in to Seaworld half price as our friends have AP'S, they are out there when we are, we would love to go to Aquatica, def Seaworld though, but am worried time will run away with us!

Do your friends have Universal AP's? Not all year but some times Universal give us offers to take friends & family in at 50% off with our AP's.

Just tried logging into my account to see if there are any offers on but I can't access the site. Sent Universal an email to sort out my log in but that could take days for them to reply.
The standard discount for pass holders is 10% (15% for mutiday tix) but as I say we sometimes get 50% off.
•10% savings on 1-day and 15% savings on multi-day theme park tickets purchased at the front gate (up to 6 people)

17 years ago I said I wasn't really too bothered about going to Florida but I will do anything once. Now been 24 times and can't wait to go again. You may never go back but chances are you will and Universal will still be there.

wow hope one day we will get to go again! you're very lucky going that many times, i will ask my friend how many times shes been, i reckon shes been 13 times since i've known her!! 4 years or so!!

Only 12 times in last 4 years for us. (14 if you add Cali & Vegas)The next year will be very hard for us, DS has just started A levels added to awkward holiday dates we are struggling to get away, could be next August
