I'm a first-timer going to Sea World and Universal Studios. I have lots of questions

Hi!

My family is going to Sea World, Universal Studios and Medevil Times in June. We have NEVER been here.

I was wondering if anyone knew if any of the places mentioned above had things like a 'Photo Pass' where we buy a disk and the copy rights to the pictures and people in the parks take photos to store on a 'memory card' of sorts.

OR a 'Meal Ticket' to any of the parks to pay one fee and eat all day/night for that ONE price.

OR a 'Fast Pass' to go ahead in lines to the front (Or close to it) without waiting hours at a time for rides or shows.

Any information for these three parks would greatly appreciated.

Thank you TONS!

I'm going to move this to the regular forum. It was in trip reports which doesn't get as many replies.

Universal has photographers who will take pictures of you that you can buy later, but Photo Pass is a Disney thing.

They also have a meal ticket that allows you to go through the lines of participating restaurants (fast food mostly) as many times as you want for a main entree and a dessert. Not every restaurant participates, and the ones who do can get crowded, so eat at off-peak times to avoid long lines. This is a great deal if you have starving teenagers who want to eat Thanksgiving dinner four times a day. Drinks are separate, but you can buy a refillable cup to save money there. I think refills with a cup are something like .69 per refill.

Universal has the Express Pass you can buy that lets you into a short express line once for each attraction. Get there half an hour before the park opens, and hit the big attractions first before the crowds come. If it's not too crowded the day you go, you won't need to buy the Express Pass. If the crowds are really bad, you can always buy the pass later in the day. If you stay at an onsite hotel, you automatically get unlimited Express. Sea World doesn't have anything like this, but they only have a few rides. You'll probably get more info about Sea World on the Sea World forum. I've only been there once, so I don't know if they have photographers roaming the parks or some type of meal deal ticket like Universal does.

Medieval Times isn't a park, it's a dinner show. I haven't been yet, so I can't tell you anything at all about that.

Have fun planning your trip, and I hope you havea great time.
