Couple of Questions

[Seeker615]

First time going to Universal without a package. I usually find it easier to just book a package but it was so much much cheaper this time to buy annual passes and get the cheap rate for Royal Pacific.

Here are my questions:

Where do I pick up the passes? Can we do it at the hotel or do we have to go to the ticket window at the parks?

Transportation- In the past we used Superstar Shuttle to get to the resort. Is this still an option even though we did not book a package?

Last thing...I don't know if anyone can help me with this but we are going on cruise after our Universal stay. Any reasonable and reliable recommendations for getting to the pier and then back to the airport?

Park tickets can be bought online ahead of time and delivered to your home or you print them from your computer. That eliminates any time in line at ticket windows.

You can book all of your transportation needs by using one of the local Orlando taxi services. I recall the name Meers Shuttle. Get a quote for each trip you need right on their website.

Since you are picking up annual passes you will need to go to the ticket window or guest services and show your id.

I recommend Tony Hinds for your transportation. He will give you a good price for all legs of your trip. I think he charges $50 per leg so it would be around $150 to pick up from MCO to RPR then RPR to PC and PC to MCO. It might cost more since PC is a longer ride. There is a thread on transportation at the top of this forum where you can explore all your options.

Tony's email address is aobh607@gmailcom

You can pick up your Annual Passes at the ticket counter at the hotels now. They don't come out of the kiosk there but you need to have the attendant print them out for you.

Thank you for all of your quick replies.

My son is special needs and doesn't have a driver's license. Could we use his school id with picture for his annual pass redemption at Cabana Bay? He will be 19. Thx!
