Ive decided, I'm going Seaworld & Univ. Studios

[benziebbj]

I have decided, its going to be universal studios and seaworld. I will be going on March 11-14. I have listened to everybody and have gotten my Southwest Rapid Rewards card for Seaworld. Does my girlfriend need to get a card so she can get her ticket priced lowered? or does it one R.R card work for two people. Also, Is this the best way to save money off Seaworld admission. Is there any savings for Universal studios? thanks

You can get up to 4 tickets at the reduced price at Sea World when you use your Rapid Rewards card. So, your GF doesn't need one unless she wants to get one. So far, this is probably the best deal on the SW tickets.

The best price on tickets to Universal is atKraft/Universal Tickets Offer . For $81.95 + tax, you get a 5-day pass to both parks. The pass is good for 5 consecutive days of unlimited admission to USF/IOA and CityWalk. It expires 5 days after the first use.

The next best deal is the Universal 2-Park Annual Power Pass for $99.95 + tax. It is a 1-year AP without the perks of a premium AP like free parking, room and merchandise discounts and some blackout dates apply (summer weekends and holidays like Christmas season and Spring Break). If you can work around those and might be returning within a year, this might be worth purchasing.

Ok, So I use My rapid Rewards card at the seaworld gate? The universal studios is 81.00 for 1 person for 5 days? Thats weird that it's cheaper for 5 days then 2 days.

Mad for the mouse beat me, we've all been hanging out at the Universal boards. If you are staying onsite, call and get entertainment rates for the onsite hotels. You can buy a book anytime before you go to get the rate. I got mine for !!9/night in August but they vary based on the season. They are far cheaper than other rates and you get the Front of the line passes, so no waiting. For more info planning join us on the Universal boards. Those guys over there know everything about Universal and IOA and can help a lot with your planning.

Yes, you use your Rapid Rawards card at the gate for a 20% discount on your tickets at SW.

The USF/IOA 5-day bonus passes are $81.95 + 11% tax (making it closer to $91 per ticket) + $2.00 per order for electronic will-call (you order online and pick up at a kiosk at USF).

A 2-day/2-park pass is $96.00 (tax included and free shipping) at Ticketmania.com. However, the 2day/2park pass never expires. So you could go to both parks in a single day and save the remaining day for another trip.

The 5-day pass is a better bargain if you intend to spend at least 2 days at USF/IOA during this trip.

The Annual Power Pass is your best bet if you can work around the blackout dates and will return for another visit during the 365 days following the day you activate your pass.

The 2day/2park pass is only a better buy if you plan to spend only 1 day in USF/IOA this year and have no intentions of returning within the next 365 days.
