Buy one day pass and get a second visit free tix ?

[jm106]

I bought my SW pass and it was a second free day pass. I printed from home but it doesnt say anything on it about a second day admission. I emailed seaworld but no on replied. Can Anyone confirm that I will have 2 days to use liek I was purchasing? I plan to get a few hours in our first day(we are at Hilton GVC across from sw) to see a few thinsg and lighten our load on our full SW day. Thanks
This is from SW site as to what I was purchasing
"Take advantage of select tickets at kids' prices when you pre-purchase on our Web site at least 7 days in advance.

* Enjoy one visit to SeaWorld anytime within one year of purchase.
* 2nd Visit Free offers the flexibility to return a second day so you can experience SeaWorld on your schedule.
* 2nd Visit Free is valid for one additional visit to SeaWorld during regularly scheduled park hours for up to 7 consecutive days from the date of the first visit at no extra charge."

Not sure exactly how it is done either - but I believe once you first enter the park with your ticket & at some time before you leave the park that day, you need to have your ticket activated for the 2nd day of use. I am sure somebody will be able to tell you the place or places in the park where this can be done.

Yes the 2nd day option has to be activated before you leave the park for the day and requires a stop at a window on the right (I think) as you leave the park. In the past they used to take your picture and apply it to the card, I'm not sure if that is still the case or if they use your finger for biometrics. It's to insure that the original purchaser is the one using the ticket again on the
2nd day, as this option is nontransferable.

They really should have printed it on the voucher you printed from home, but these tickets do indeed qualify for the 2nd day free. You won't have any problems.

They don't take pictures anymore but use biometrics.

Thanks everyone. I would also think they would print it on your ticket but glad to know there wont be an issue. Also glad to know where i need to go before we leave the first day. I cant wait, ds is totally excited and I thought it would be a great way to begin our trip.

We just returned last week and here's how it worked out:

We had gotten our SW tix as part of a Universal Orlando package. When we went through the turnstiles on our first day, the girl told us she needed to keep our tickets but then directed us to the queue for the second day free tix. (It's to the left of the turnstiles as you walk in.) I was worried they'd question my not having anything to prove that we were eligible (though my guess is ANYONE is eligible) but the worry was unfounded. When I got to the window, I told the woman that I was there for the 2nd day tix. She asked how many, had me write down our names on a list, entered our names into the computer and printed us two tix, one each (with the names on them). Easy as pie.

I will say this, the line was long-ish and they only had 2 windows open and the women weren't the speediest in the world. It's also really loud there, particularly first thing in the morning as the park is filling, so there was a lot of "Could you repeat that?" going back and forth. A little frustrating in terms of starting your day, but we just wanted to get it done with.

We actually didn't get a chance to use the tix, unfortunately.

When we were there in January I just waited until mid-day to go to the window. I happen to notice signs around that said something like enjoy us all year long. The person at the window assumed I was looking for the 2nd day free and started to process when I asked her what the signs ment. She said for $10 I could get a pass good for the rest of 2009. Well now - THAT is a bargain. Sign me up!

We went up to the window at the end of the day. After shamu rocks. We were almost the last people in the parks. (My sister and I) There was no wait, we were the only ones there to get the 2nd day free. It does take awhile to give the names to the person. (we had 11 names) My husband and brother- in- law had taken the kids back to our rental home to swim after dinner at sea world so the kids missed the shamu rocks night show and the dolphin show. I really wanted them to see these shows. (my sister and I saw the shows-they were awesome) That's why we got the 2nd day free pass to come back for the kids to see them. Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to get back-we jam a lot into our vacations. (we go every other year) This was in 2007 and now this May we are going to go back to see those shows.(and of course my favorite ride-Journey to Atlantis) I would have just stayed all day the first day to fit it in but my husband doesn't like to stay at the parks from open to close. Plus the kids do enjoy the pool at the house. So my suggestion is to go to the window only if the line is short or no line as it will take awhile. But the 2nd day is indeed free.
