May 16th! Yeah, they should have later hours by then. I think 9 and 10pm or so. I'd say go. Get the 3 day, and save the 3rd day for later. By the way, if you know you 'll be going back, on the 3rd day, you can upgrade to an anual pass.
I would do this: 3 day pass is $10 more than 2 day. So, get the 3 day. Only use 2 days. the 3rd day never expires. If you visit again next year, or 3 yers from now, use the 3rd day, during the day, upgrade it to an anual pass (I think about 40 bucks). Then, if you are staying 2 or 3 days that trip, you've paid about 50 bucks total on top of the 2 days you inteneded to buy this year. You could make it 4 or 5 days for that 50 bucks, and go again 11 months later for free!
>>>> We were going to go for 2 days, and do this, but on the 3rd day, the town car never arrived to take us to the airport, so we had to reschedule our trip, and stayed an extra day. We used our 3rd day. Since I know I will be back in October, I will get another 3 day pass, use it in october, and then buy the a.p. to be used in my next spring trip. I forgot to get the ap this time. I could kick myself. <<< Both parks have a cust svc area near the enterance, where you can upgrade your tickets.
www.ticketmania sells 3 days for 98 bucks or so.
