Annual Pass Question

[JessicaR]

I bought 2 preferred annual passes for myself and husband. I still need to get my boys either an AP or the bonus pass. Using my AP do I get any discount on either? Thanks for any help!

 

[the Dark Marauder]

You should be able to get a discount on them.

 

[JessicaR]

Okay thanks!

 

[USO2003]

You get 10% off Tickets.

Mike, do you know if they sell the 2 park power pass at the parks?

 

[chris mcfly]

There is no discount off of another annual pass if you have an annual pass.

The Power Pass is sold at the parks.

You can purchase an Annual Pass for someone with discount on your annual pass.

Actually- you can't. There is no official discount on annual passes for AP holders. Trust me.

If that was the case, then a family of 5 buying annual passes would only buy 1 and then get a discount on all the others.

Chris is correct. This is from the USO website:

"2 Park Preferred Annual Pass - Universal Orlando

The Universal Orlando 2 Park Annual Pass entitles one guest to the following:

Admission to both Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure for one calendar year beginning with the first day of use.
Park to park access in the same day
Complimentary self-parking in the main parking structure
Discounts at select Universal Orlando food and merchandise locations, Universal Orlando 1Day, 2Day & 3Day tickets, VIP Tours, and Halloween Horror Nights passes. "


Sorry Maria! Would've been nice.

Okay after feeling like a yo yo, yes I can No I cant but wait! Yes you can and then a definite NO you cant!

Thank you Chris and Renee for clearing it all up! It was worth a shot!

I'll trust you, but I know in 2002, when my brother got his I gave them my annual pass and he got a discount on his annual pass. So if that's changed I don't know. I just speak from experience.

I'm sorry, I don't see your point? The question has to do with a discount on annual passes, what am I missing?

I assume your talking to me,

""2 Park Preferred Annual Pass - Universal Orlando

Well since it was a question, I wanted to scan the AP Holder so people can see what you get.

That was the point.

Ok, well, I didn't see what it had to do with answering the question, I thought we were supposed to see "proof" somewhere in there that you were right about the AP giving a discount on additional AP's or something.

Don't mind me.

A new thread with AP benefits might be appropriate if you're trying to help people with that...IMO.
