Am I missing something with ticket prices?

[cissy]

I checked Universal site, Maple leaf and Undercover and the tickets are cheaper on the Universal site. I feel like I am missing something because I am not sure why I would buy from any place other than the universal site but people do so what's up?

Be sure to factor which sites charge tax and shipping.

 

[cissy]

Taxes I need to check but the Universal site lets you print at home so I assume no shipping charge involved, right?

Undercover tourist prices already include tax and shipping..Universals DOES NOT

Ok. Again, thanks for the info. Love these boards!! Keeping us newbies on track and it is very much appreciated.

If you get them from universal I would do the kiosk pickup vs the print at home. The print at home stinks because it's printed full sheet of regular paper. The self kiosk gives you an actual ticket, easier to carry and scan vs the full sheet of paper. The self serve kiosks are at the resorts and outside the main gates.

Did the taxes answer the issue?

Or are you buying a 1-day ticket? That could be the answer.

 

[cissy]

Yes and maybe yes. Trying to decide on ticket day options so that could be another reason.

Is it possible to convert the print-at-home to a physical ticket once you get there?

One day tickets are going to be cheaper through Universal.

Yep.

It suddenly occurred last night to me that the OP was buying that one...
