What is the best ticket combination for us.

[kazd]

We have left in our sticky mits two days hopper pluse 1 entrance to Blizzard Beach.

We also want to visit. Seaworld, Typhoon Lagoon, Universal and Island of Adventure.

In your experience what would be the best ticket combination. We are going for 16 nights. We do not necessarily want to do the parks every day, probably every other. Although we would not mind a consecutive visit to Typhoon.

thanks for your input

Hello

So just to clarify, you want:

One day at Seaworld
One day at Universal
One at IOA
One day at BB
One Day at TL

Or do you see yourselves doing multiple visits to any of the above? Seaworld often do a buy one day get one free if that is of any help, and there have been some great Universal multi day deals recently.

How many days doing WDW parks do you think you would like?

You have one BB ticket & two WDW tickets already

Yes thats about the top and bottom of it.

If a one day universal is £30 for eg but a three day no expiry is £70 or so then I would probably go for the no expiry.

However, I don't want to go into the realms of a five day hopper.

We had decided not to even book a holiday this year as we spent over £8k last year in Florida and that was on the gulf coast. Then my neighbour booked and I caved in, however, would like to keep the costs down. Not easy with three kids

Well, Universal are doing a great deal!

You will receive one kid’s ticket (ages 3-9)† for FREE for every 2-Day/2-Park Ticket purchased online at the regular price of $99.95 plus tax.

Plus, when you buy online, you will also receive three (3) additional days of admission for FREE, for a total of five (5) consecutive days of admission for the whole family.

This exclusive online offer is not available at the gate and must be used by December 31, 2006.

Not sure how old your children are, but you might be able to get two of them in free with this deal

Here's some more info from the website:

Thanks for that.

Can you just confirm something for me.

Can you hop between the two parks. On the third day do you have to then make the decision of which park to spend the next three days at. It seems to say that only the first two days can be at different parks.

Also do they send you actual tickets or are you supposed to pick them up from the park.

Thanks

Karen

Hi Karen,

I must admit I assumed it was for both parks whenever?? i.e. you can hop.

I think you pick them up at the park, but there is an automated teller that recognises the tickets you have bought when you insert your credit card, sort of thing.

I have never done this myself so hopefully someone else will confirm?

Cheers

Karen

Thanks for the info regarding universal tickets. Does anyone know when the offer expires as we are not going until December? Of interest to people if my wife and I buy tickets our son gets one free. This means we will still have a spare child ticket? Can this be right?

 

[kazd]

I believe the tickets have to be used by the end of Dec this year. I think we also may end up with a spare because I think we will have to pay adult price for our 11 year old which will result in a free childs ticket.
