Need advice on tkt purchase for 2 days?

[2xcited4wrds]

We are going again next May(me,dh,dd10dd11ds6) but have decided to do Discovery Cove and Seaworld for 2 days. With the expense of that we are only going to do the Disney parks for 2 days and hang out at hotel the rest of the time for some down time. What would be the most economical way for tickets? Is there a 2 day pass? I haven't seen one. If we did just one day passes, can you come and go to that one park for one day? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

There are no two day passes. You will have to buy a One Day/One Park pass for each member of your family for each of the days you will be at the parks.

Yes, You can leave the park and come back to the same park the same day. You can not hop from park to park with the One Day/One Park ticket. Before you leave the park, YOU MUST GET YOUR HAND STAMPED if you want to return.

Another option for purchasing tickets, would be to buy one of the various Multi-Day Park Hopper passes. This will allow you to hop from park to park within the same day and any days you do not use off the pass can be saved for a later visit. This is because unused days of the Multi-Day Park Hopper passes never expire. This will save $$$$ off of future visits because WDW ticket prices tend to go up about 3%-5% per year.

Hope This Helps,
Bruce

And, if you decide to go with the 1-Day/1-Park tickets, you can save $5 off of each 2nd day pass by buying the 2nd day the same time that you buy the 1st day.

Try www.discountorlandovacation.com You may have to call and check for actual availability, but we got 2 day parkhoppers through them....they are legit Disney tickets and included one admission to Pleasure Island or Disneyquest as well. They do have an expiration date, though. So call for details.

ACTUALLY, there is a legitimate 2-day park hopper pass available from www.discountorlandovacation.com (under their newsletter specials) and it even includes a plus for PI or DQ. Mary Waring of Mousesavers highly recommends them. At this time, their 2-day pass expires at the end of this year (and only valid for a certain amount of days after first use), but someone e-mailed them and they said they should be getting ones for next year pretty soon. I have it under my "favorites", so it goes directly to their newsletter specials. When you go to their website, search for 2 day pass and it should come up. In the past, most of us thought this was not a valid ticket, but it actually is, per Mary Waring who recently advised us of this. (Who, I personally trust 100%) That's why most of us very knowledgable disers don't know about it. Good luck.

Oops, Ironz beat me to it.

WOW!

I learn something new everyday on the DIS.

That being said, I still purchase Multi-Day Passes knowing I will not use all the days on a particular trip. I know they never expire and I can use them on future trips.

There are three truths in life; Death, Taxes and the fact that Disney will raise their ticket prices.... A LOT!

Have Fun,
Bruce

I will say that BCVBRUCE has a good point. I would also buy the regular park-hoppers for myself, and save the extra days for future visits, because I know I'll be back.

For this most recent visit, however, I had an AP, but my two travelling companions needed park-hopping tickets, but did not want to spend the extra money to buy the 4-day Parkhoppers at this time, not knowing when they would return in the future. So the 2 day hoppers were just right.

I also was concerned about the legitimacy of these tickets at first...but they were used this past weekend with no problems whatsoever.

Central Florida Tickets and Travel also had two day passes (and three day passes - some with plus features, some not) for a time. You can call and ask if they have any still available: 407 932-2080

Thanks for the info! I checked out Discount Orlando and emailed them. They emailed me back immediately and told me how to keep checking for next year. This will be our best option since this will be out last year for a couple of years(Husband burnout). The price is excellent as well. Thanks!
