Last year's 4/3 offer - days or nights?

[Jen12573]

I'm all sorts of confused, probably because I shouldn't be doing math in my head on a Friday - but with last year's 4/3 deal, it was purchase 4 nights, get 3 nights free, right? Which means you're there for 8-days, 7 nights total? (for flight planning)

If that's the case, and say they do it this year but you must purchase MYW tickets for every DAY you are there, you have to do an 8-day park ticket, right? (again, math on a Friday, bad move!!)

Last year, did they do something similar with park tickets too (buy 4 days, get 3 free) or am I imaging things?

I'm just trying to plan in hopes that there's a deal like this soon...

Thanks,
Jen

It is for 7 nights hotel, and 7 day tickets. You pay for 4 nights and a 4 day base ticket, and get 7 nights in the hotel & a 7 day base ticket.

If you wanted 8 days, I'm thinking you could add that extra day once you get there, for only $3 a ticket.

Thank you so much - that makes perfect sense to me now. Basically you'd be there 7 nights, 8 days, but get 7 days of tickets for the price of 4. That makes much more sense to me now. Whew, I thought my math was fuzzy today!

The terms of last year's offer were only that you had to buy one day tickets. If you bought a four day ticket you got three more days for free. The bulk of the cost of a seven day ticket is in the first four days. ($239 vs. $249 = $10 difference in 2010)The one other aspect of the deal was that if you wanted extra ticket features. Hopping and the water park pluses option are both a flat rate of $55.40 with tax. Normally when you buy a four day ticket you get 4 visits, buta seven day ticket gets 7visits. Also to make that seven day tickt a no expire, you only paid the no-expire fee for a four day ticket: $55.40 instead of $122.

So in some ways the best deal was if you bought the extra options on your park ticket. If you bought a ticket that was less than four days, you didn't get any free days.

Was this available in Aug last year or only spring?

Can I also ask if the full free dining is expected to be offered with value resorts for Aug 2010?

thanks
