Best place to buy a 1 day ticket?

[las3888]

Hi all, I just checked with Undercover Tourist and it doesn't look like they discount for a 1 day 1 park ticket. Does anybody know if anybody does? We would probably like to have tickets in hand given the craziness of getting there early to see WWoHP. What's the best place to get them from (if any)?

I know you asked about a one day ticket, but if you think you will be at Universal 3X between now and Dec 31, 2014 you may want to look into the ticket that COSTCO is selling.

It is $139.99 (they didn't charge in any tax here in Ohio) and you get to any 3 days until 12/31/14. You get access to both parks per day and it doesn't have that must use all the days within 14 days of first use.

That is less than $47 a day, so thought I'd throw it out there.

Would LOVE to buy some from Costco - but Ohio is too far away from New Hampshire!
If anyone spots them closer to me (in NH or Mass), let me know. I unfortunately won't need them 'till November so I'm hoping to find them before I go.

This is a good deal and really what I was looking for. UT doesn't sell any tickets that I can tell with no expiration. I don't belong at Costco, but I am checking with a friend to see if she would buy them. Do you think they are at all Costcos? I can always call to check. I don't need to be a member to USE the ticket down at US, do I?

Thanks for the great info!

I see you are from Chicago area and this was posted yesterday on another Universal thread

For anyone in the Chicago area, as of yesterday, there were still tickets at the Oak Brook Costco. Hopefully, the display has not been removed. Good luck!

so I assume that means that as of Sat, Oak Brook Costco still had them.

Nothing on ticket indicates that you must be a Costco member to use them. Just gives you a place to print your name and then signature box below that with fine print saying you will be asked for ID and to sign each time you use the ticket. Same person must use for all visits.

Hope this works for you.

About the only ticket specials you're going to find are for multiple days...single day tickets are not usually discounted. You can go through a timeshare spiel to get a reduced cost ticket but it's not worth it. If you want just the single day ticket, purchase it from the Universal website...it's cheaper than buying at the gate. You can do electronic pickup and use the kiosk to get the tickets or you can print at home and have the "sheet of paper" tickets when you arrive.

Hi. Some credit cards from Chase have a feature called Ultimate Rewards wherein you redeem the points for cash, gift cards, etc. One of the items available is a 1 day 2 park ticket for Universal Studios Florida. The redemption amount is 5000 points, which gives them a cash equivalent cost of $50 each, as you can redeem the points for cash at an exchange rate of $100 for every 10,000 points.

Hi,

I just got my Universal tickets from Costco today - a friend let me come with her. They were $139.99 and no tax. This ended up being the perfect solution for us - just what we were looking for plus we can park hop!

Thanks!

AWESOME! Glad I could pass along the info I had picked up from another thread!
