Purchasing Ticket - HELP!

[Kate and Pete]

Okay, DH and I are going to US/IOA 2/16-2/21. I went to the US site to buy the tickets (2 parks unlimited for 7 days) but reading the description, it sounds like the ticket goes active two days after it's purchased and then is valid for 7 days after that.

Is that correct? Is there a way to purchase tickets right now for Feb.?

The 2 park unlimited 7 day access tickets are good from the time your purchase until whenever you use them. Then they are activated and are good for 6 more consecutive days after the first day of use. I purchased them in like June 07 and we aren't going until April/May 08. I will pick them up when we arrive at the electronic kiosks using my confirmation/transaction number and the credit card I purchased with.

Wwessing is correct. The expiration isn't until 6 days after first use (not purchase.) So go ahead and purchase them for your Feb. trip.

I noticed the prices on the USO website went from 86 to 89....but it looks like DREAMS UNLIMITED is still selling them for 86.

I went to the website and it stated:

Advance Purchase- Must purchase at least 2 days in advance of your visit to UO Theme Parks.

So, you can purchase them now for use later as previous posters have mentioned. They are valid for 7 consecutive days including your first use.
So get them now, plan, plan, plan and have fun!

Yay! Thanks everyone - I'm buying them tonight - it's our first time there, so we're soooooo excited!

Yes...but sometimes they don't scan because of issues with the readers or if it's really crowded.
