2 Park Days Hoppers?

[barbnbrian]

Don't think these really exist, but, are there any type of 2 day hoppers sold? We're having a short trip and will only have about 3 full days. We only want to do the parks for two days, but I want to be able to hop from park to park. I know about the single day tickets and the bounce back tickets, but we want to go to MK a majority of the time, Epcot for a few things, but also want to go in to MGM for a couple rides. I know we are going to have to compromise but would like to be able to flexibility to hop from one park to park.

If you're staying onsite, you can get the UPHs. Depending on when you order your passes and how your room ressies are set up, you could get by with a 2-day/1-night UPH for as little as $126.75/102.25 (adult/child).

If you're staying offsite, there are no 2-day park hopper options available. The best you'll be able to do is the 2-day/2-park passes, which were once referred to as the "Bounceback Passes".

Thanks for the idea, but I'm not sure if it would work out to be that cheap. Help me work this through please.

Arriving early a.m. on a Friday at POFQ. Staying 3 nights onsite. Leaveing early on Mon. We've been to WDW several times, so we know exactly what we want to see and do. A majority of the things are in the MK, but the girls want to go to MGM for RNRC and a couple other things, but I don't want to spend a lot of time there. Also want to go to Epcot and spend more time there than we have in the past, but there's a couple things we'd like to do at Animal Kingdom. This is why I feel we need hoppers vs. straight one park one day tickets.

If we get the unlimited park hoppers, wouldn't we have to pay for 3 days, 2 nights (Fri., Sat. Sun.)? I've read about having the last day removed from the UPH, so I think we could get the ticket to be good until midnight on Sun. Does anyone know what it would cost for this option vs. buying two day tickets? Our party consists of 2 adults and 2 children tickets. Thanks for the help.

Deb Wills' site, allears.net, has an excellent chart that you can use to compare the costs of various Disney admissions media. The costs compare Disney's prices, so if you're interested in the various ticket brokers' costs, you'll need to visit their individual sites.

One possible suggestion would be to divide your room ressie into two separate but linked ressies. The first ressie would be for Friday night and would be for the room only. The second ressie would be for Saturday thru Monday. You would have to checkout on Saturday morning and check back in again but ideally you would not have to change rooms.

When you check back in on Saturday, you could then purchase the UPHs for your family, but ask to leave off the last day (Monday). The cost for the 2 days/1 night passes would be $137.40/$110.77 each (adult/child), with taxes.

The same could be done by having a Fri-Sun ressie linked to a Sun-Mon ressie. You could then purchase the UPHs for Fri/Sat or Sat/Sun, leaving off either the last or first day of your stay.

The catch here is that you would have to do your park days on consecutive days.

This came up last year, and I just double-checked it and it's still there this year. There IS a way to get a two day hopper this time of year....

The site for Orlando Gay Days sells a two day hopper plus one night at PI for $135. The tickets have two limitations: they must be used by the end of 2004, and once you've used one day of the ticket, the rest must be used within the next ten days. If you're thinking about PI and only want two days in the parks, this is a fairly decent solution. A friend online used this option last year. Hint: if you go this option and don't want the Gay Days newsletter emailed periodically, check the box that says "don't send email."

Thanks for all your suggestions. I did take a look at the info for tickets through the Gay Days and everyone should know that these two day hopper passes do have a bonus of either admission to Pleasure Island or Disney Quest. I'm not planning to visit PI with my daughters so I figured it was cheaper to buy the single day tickets and just not be able to park hopper, but when I read their info more closely I saw that the extra bonus with PI or Disney Quest, which the kids would like.

you could also try to buy left over days from someone eles tickets on ebay-just make sure they have really good feedback.

That would be my suggestion as well. Make sure you check the feedback and click the links on previous auctions that person sold to see if park tickets are any of them. I have even emailed a previous buyer of park hoppers through ebay's "contact member" to see if they had used them and if they had any problems. I recommend doing that too just to be on the safe side!
