Cheapst way to add day Ticket during HHN

[angel703]

DH and I will Be at HHN opening Weekend. We got the FFP and EP for Sat. Night. We had to give up AP this year due to a tighter budget. I have heard that people who are in the park when it closes can go to a waiting area as long as they have a valid HHN ticket and get a jump on the houses. I figured some of you experts might be able to tell me the cheapest way to add a day ticket. It would mainly be to take advantage of early entrance to the houses so I don't really want to spend too much on it.

Since you have to be in park before it closes to do S & S, I would purchase the FL resident tickets...if you're a FL resident.

i don't know the rate for floridians but anyone that has a day ticket can buy the ADD ON for $29.99 for opening weekend.

the ADD ON is the discounted hhn ticket.

don't leave the park when it closes at 5.
to to the stay and scream area.
wait there until you are released when the event begins.


stay and scream tickets, add ons......same thing

That's the problem...she doesn't have the day ticket but has the HHN ticket and EP for that night. Other than FL resident or AP discount, I don't know of any other way to get a cheaper day ticket.

you are right, i misread it.

maybe a time share tour would get them free tickets for UO.........

i think she might be in the general admission line then for hhn.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, we live in GA. ( we are 20 miles north of the FL border) I haven't found anything cheaper than a 1 day 1 park with AAA. $50

As much as I would like to be first in line ( and of course spend a few hours in IOA ) We do have EP for the second night. I may just stick with the original plan to just check everything out Fri. night at a slow pace. Besides, its hard to keep up a quick pace while wearing beer goggles.

That's probably a good plan...take it easy the first night and get a layout of the houses and then do what you missed the second night.
