Best ticket deals going on now for spring

[pmanko]

I am seeing Buy 2 park to park and two park to park free at UT for $226.88 I am not seeing that deal on Universal - but, I know it's available in their package deal - I am thinking of ala carte buying so I can split my stay between CB and RP (for 2 days of express pass)...
Any other places to check for ticket deals - is this B2G2 the best deal (seems pretty good to me!?) or will there be better deals before we go in March?

The one downer of buying tickets from a discounter supplier is we will miss out on the AMEX lounge which we can utilize if we buy our tickets through Universal and use our AMEX card. Not a big deal - but, free water and snacks and a place to charge up phones and take a breather.... Also, I believe we get a coupon booklet ($150 value) if we buy w/ Universal. Anything else I am missing or not thinking of? I am going to check AAA prices too.

Has anyone used the AMEX lounge to comment??

The UT special of 2 days free has an expiration date of March 2017
Think last day for usage of buy 2 days, get 2 days free tickets is the 31


Amex lounge is small
Water and soda and a simple snack was all that was offered earlier this year

It is not a game changer

No charger provided anymore to charge phones. You have to bring your own charger.

ok - thanks - we are driving so water and snacks won't be a big deal - normally we are flying in and have limited space w/ luggage, etc. But, now we live in Alabama and will make the drive over so we'll have plenty of water and snacks we can bring. I don't think the AMEX lounge sounds like we are missing much.

As for the special for BOG2 and the expiration date - yeah, we leave 4/1 so that should work for us... I should probably buy them - but, we are trying to figure out our first part of the week when we are offsite - I think we are going to SeaWorld one day and maybe a water park (if the weather permits ) - so the Universal Flex ticket looks appealing too!?

The Amex lounge is nice but not a deal breaker

Lounge is on the smaller side

Check out the flex ticket
Figure out the total costs of tickets for the three places you will go

Then see how the universal
Flex tickets will cost

Compare the two figures and go with what is best for you and family

I have never been asked to prove that I bought my tickets with my AE card when I have used the lounge. Just showed the card on entry and all was good!
