Is there any reason to wait to get tickets when we get there?....

Or should I just order tickets now? We're planning on getting the Power Pass for one of us, and the other 5, the 2+1 park-to-park tickets. If this weren't so last-minute, I'd order from UT, but we're leaving on Wednesday, so they wouldn't arrive in time. Just wondering if they're more expensive at the park, or the same?

The powerpass will be the same. The other ticket might be more at the gate; does it say something about a discount for buying online on the UO site?

Get them Will Call if you order online. Go to a kiosk at the parks or in the onsite hotel lobbies and pick up the preordered tickets/pass that way. Easy.

You are supposed to be able to save $20 per ticket by ordering online from Universal, even if you do it on your phone on the way to the parks. I've read that in two different spots (Orlando Informer and a book that I got).

It says "Save $20 by ordering online", but I didn't know if there was a discount with the Power Pass. I think I'll just go ahead and order online, though. Is it easier to pick up at will call, as opposed to printing them?

order it online and it will be at the kiosk for pickup within 24 hours.

Don't wait and buy at gate. Depending on time and crowd you will regret it. Order online and do will call kiosk like others said.

With tickets, if you print at home you get a full sheet of paper that you get to show each time.

If you print at the Will Call kiosk you get a proper ticket.

I think you would have to stop at the kiosk for the Power Pass anyway (I did for my Preferred when I bought it online for WC pickup); might as well do it altogether. I'm not sure if the Power Pass gives you discounts on tickets. I'm not sure if the discount is better than the online ordering price. (it didn't used to be, but it might be now, I think that mac keeps track of that, though) BUT you have to have an *activated* pass to get the discount, so you would have to pick up the pass, go into a park with it to activate it, THEN buy the tickets for the rest of your party.
