Print @ Home or Kiosk?

When ordering tickets from Universal site, which would/have you choose? Do you get actual plasic credit card sized tickets from the kiosk? Are the waits long at the kiosk early before the parks open?

I would choose the kiosk since you would get the regular size tickets instead of a sheet of paper. Just a reminder...the only tickets that are plastic is the Premier AP...all others are the regular park-type tickets.

Another vote for the kiosk. Just make sure you have the credit card used to charge the tickets and it will be fast and painless. As mentioned, the alternative is an 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper for each person that you'll need to keep throughout the week.

I've done both and other than having a smaller piece of paper to carry around if you use the kiosk I don't really see a big deal of difference between the two. I've heard the argument that the print-at-home tickets "could" get wet or "could" get ripped but I've never experienced that when I've printed multi-day tickets. If that's a concern then you can always print out more than one copy of each paper ticket.

So I think it comes down to whether you want to have your ticket in hand before you go to Orlando (pick print at home for that) or you really want a "regular sized" ticket (kiosk). Either way they work well.

Yep, that's exactly the difference. Not sure why someone would prefer a ticket the size of a whole sheet of paper.

I like the kiosk, one less thing to forget before our flight (the print at home tix), and I've never had a problem with the kiosks

If you print at home and then take the A4 sheet to the kiosk and ask them to change it for a proper ticket, they should do this. I did this last year with the Frequent Fear pass for HHN. I am sure it will be the same for the multi day passes.

You don't exchange them at the kiosk...you have to take them to Guest Services for exchange.

If you print at home and you are staying at the PBH can they exchange the printed tickets for the regular ones or do you have to do that at the park? If you are staying in a club level room does that help?

Thanks

They would have to be exchanged at Guest Services at the parks.
