Hello,
We haven't been to Universal in several years but now my "little kids" are "big kids" and like to ride thrill rides, I am thinking about it a trip. We live 15 minutes from Bush Gardens and the kids have now rode both Sheikra and Cheetah Hunt. So I think they have graduated from little kid coasters to big coasters.
They are 10 and 11 years old.
Are there any current promotions for FL resident or military? I am not sure what day we will go, if we will just make it a day trip, or stay overnight. I guess I need to start reading this board over the Disney pages to see what the current promos are.
DH doesn't ride thrill rides at all, so he says he will just sit out and wait for us. If it's a day trip maybe we will just leave him at home and I can take the kids out of school for a day to go on a less crowded day?
In the past we had annual passes (when my 21 and 19 year old were the little kids age) and ended up going maybe twice the entire year. After a cheer competition at Universal, I paid extra to upgrade my ticket and DD ticket to annual passes for the two older boys and they ended up never using them at all. If I recall correctly, the annual passes we bought for the entire family was a promo that you got off a fast food (Burger King?) cup and was like $99 for FL residents.
