New to Universal - Booking ?'s

[princesslondon]

We are huge Disney Fans, but have decided to take a short trip to FL to try out US and IOA!!
We are going for three nights, 2-3 days (have not decided for sure) and I have a few questions.
I went to book a package for the HRH club level with tickets (the $90 tix) and the price was around $1600. Then being a Disney fan, I decided just to ck the room and add the tickets sep. and the price is $200 cheaper. Is this correct and will I get paper like tickets in the mail in addition to room keys when we ck in if we book it sep. Is it all on the room key if I book the package. Does anyone know why it is $200 cheaper - the package has no extras?
Thanks everyone!!! - Just in case you need the info, it will be me, DH, and DD (6).

Thanks Again

The packages are for those who don't like to plan. Have you checked out the AAA rate? It may be even cheaper.

If you are getting the $90 tickets, you will have to pick them up at the kiosk in the park unless you go to your AAA office and get them there.

If you don't have AAA, it may be worth it to pay the $60 for it because you can save a bundle. Not only are rooms cheaper but you get food and merchandise discounts in the parks as well.

When were you planning on going?

I do not have AAA, but may be willing if it would help. We are going heading to Fl around May 19, staying at least one night at the Nick hotel, and three nights at Universal.

The AAA rates are at least $20 cheaper per night. I am seeing a $242/night at HRH but not club.
