Sounds like a great deal

My family will be going to US/IOA next year and also plan on going to DC/SW/BG. On the DC site it says that when you buy the DC ticket you also get unlimited admission to SW/Aquatica and BG (with a small upgrade). Is there any catch to this? We plan on going to all of these places and I had priced tickets prior to seeing the info on the discovery cove site. I just wanted to be sure I was understanding right before I buy this. We plan on doing 3 days at US/IOA staying on site at RPR or PBH and then moving to the Hilton Grand Vacation for 4 nights and going one day at each of the other parks - SW/BG/DC as well as a stop at the waterpark at some point. Does this plan sound OK?

With the upgrade fee, the only catch is the time limit (think it's 14 days, might be 7-either way, less than you'd need for your plans). It is a great deal-have fun!

And, since you are doing DC, call them and ask to add a parking pass. You can pick it up at DC and it gives you free parking at all the Busch parks in FLA for 14 days from date of issue, for about $25 plus tax. That's a savings if you go to more than 1 park, as parking is now around $15 at each park.

If you don't get the pass, say you pay for parking at Aquadica, then want to go to SW in the evening. Save your parking receipt, it should be good for parking at SW that evening.

Have a great time. We enjoyed all those parks with the same deal, though when we went 2 years ago, I had to pay extra for 2 parks. Now you only have to pay extra for 1.

Thanks for the parking info. I wasn't even thinking about having to pay for parking in all the different parks! I guess I need to factor in parking for the 3 nights at the onsite Universal hotel, the 5 nights at the SW partner hotel and the parking for the different parks!! More to think about - Thanks!!!

Make sure when you are checking out online and buying your tickets that you do not skip the step to "upgrade" to the ultimate tickets. It is right at the end.

Also you can use your DC tickets at the other parks BEFORE you go to DC.

Once you buy the tickets and print them off they are your actual tickets. You do not have to go trade them for anything else. They have a bar code on them and when you go to each park you get in the regular line to get in and hand them your paper ticket and they scan it.
