Universal ticket question................?

[dkrauss]

Hello folks,

When you travel to Universal Orlando is it more convenient to purchase your tickets in advance or when you go to the park? Looking at a 1 day 2 park ticket(s) and wondering when I should get it them. Is there a penalty for buying at "the door"? Since I'll be at a Disney resort is the transportation add on a good deal?

Thank you in advance for your help with these questions.

You’ll pay more if you wait and you’ll waste time waiting in line. Buy ahead direct, on Undercover Tourist, through something like Costco or AAA- just buy ahead.
More than 1 person- Uber or Lyft is a heck of a lot cheaper. Even for 1, it probably is. And no need to schedule anything.

It really is a waste of time to buy tickets at the gate. Get them ahead of time.

Definitely buy them online in advance. it saves time and I think they are cheaper that way. I waited in line over 30 minutes one morning to upgrade my tickets........

They are more expensive at the park and then you waste time by waiting in line. I would purchase them in advance

I am adding a question. If I don't get a response I will do my own thread. The US page shows 1 day tickets at $109-$119. I know you have to choose your dates in advance. UT has one day tickets at $185. but flexible dates. Quite a difference! Are there better options? How far in advance do you need to buy the tickets? What is the best way to get 1 day park tickets?

Editing: I think I figured out the price discrepancy. The US website only offers a 1 park option. I am getting the park to park option. I don't see a park to park option on the US site. Am I missing it?

Editing again: I was on the US - Hollywood site. LOL Thanks goodness I didn't buy anything!
