Undercover Tourist best place for DC tickets?

We are planning a last minute trip at the end of July. Is it too late to get DC tickets? Is UC the cheapest option? Also, how does that work with UC - how do you indicate which day you want to go? TIA for any info - we've never been to DC or BG and hoping to try both this summer.

I didn't even know UT had DC tickets, so I looked it up. It is a $4 savings off the gate price (for the non-dolphin swim package), and says it is valid only for the day reserved, so you must have to tell them what day when you buy them. I didn't bother to go through the mousesavers link; you could save another dollar that way.

I wouldn't think it is too late to buy from them, since it is an e-ticket.

The one thing to consider is UT tickets don't qualify for the Discovery Cove one free date change. I emailed UT about this ahead of time and they refused to confirm this, which is a bad sign. Discovery Cove directly purchased tickets can be moved once for free, up to the day before as long as they have availability. After that the move costs $50 and I think UT tickets would be subject to that fee. We had to move our date as the weather just for our day looked bad all week and ultimately was an awful day. If we had to go to Discovery Cove that day it would have sucked.

Hadn't thought of that!
