Bonus Pass or Separate Tickets??

[disneyfan21]

I am planning to go to Universal Orlando for five days but I know that I would like to take some days off to go to Sea World and Wet N Wild. Is it better to buy the Orlando Bonus Pass which is good for the 4 parks or buy the tickets separately?

I feel that if I buy the Orlando Bonus Pass I will be overwhelmed since I am going to actually force myself to go to the other parks for the sole reason of not losing money. What do you think?

Have you done a price comparison? Is the "Orlando bonus pass" the same as the 4-park flex ticket? If so, it cost $180 (per Ticketmania) and includes 14 consecutive days at all 4 parks. If you priced it separately, it would come to $174 (with tax)

5-day pass for Universal = 81.95 plus tax
2-day for Seaworld (buy 1, get 2nd day free) = 52.50
1 day at Wet & Wild = 31.00

Based on these figures, it would probably make sense going with the 4-park flex ticket. I really though it would come out a better deal pricing things separately, but as you can see, there's not much price difference. For $180, you get up to 14 days in the parks. For $174, you get 8 days in the parks. That is, if my math is right Something else you need to factor in.....are you going to want a lot of "down" days during your vacation or will you be looking to do a park pretty much every day?
