The Laud Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 buy your tickets online before you go.Its alot cheaper and you just walk straight in while others will be in long queues waiting to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimstroma Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Will be a busy time visiting all theme parks in 10 days. We normally do all Disney parks one year and Universal/ Seaworld/ Busch the next. You can buy combo tickets on UK websites such as Attractions Tickets Direct or Florida Tickets.

they've_been_suckered Posted January 20, 2015 Author Share Posted January 20, 2015 Don't see any tickets for less than 7days on the Disney/universal websites. Surprising how poor their web pages are actually. Not going with any kids so may cover a bit more ground skipping some of the attractions for little people?

BMan Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 We have the Ultimate Disney Passes which allows you to use Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom. It also allows you to also use the two Disney Water Parks. Wit us having young family the majority of our holiday will be spent at these parks. However would like to go and see Universal Studios as well and spend 1 or 2 days there but I cant find anywhere to buy day passes etc. It just seems to be 7 or 14 day passes which is not really worth buying if we only want to go for 1 or 2 days. Any advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aff2rehab Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Bman when we were over for the game in 2012, we got 2 day park to park passes which let you go in both universal islands of adventure & universal studios think we added a water park as well. All booked on universal website. https://www.universalorlando.com/Theme-Park-Tickets/General-Admission.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartandon Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 For anybody heading to Disney, make sure you reserve your return times for rides using the My Disney Experience site http://mydisneyexperience.com/ If you want to avoid hour long queues for some of the more popular rides, it's a necessity. You can reserve up to 3 'Fastpasses' per day. To give you a rough idea of how long the queues can be, the meet and greet with Anna & Elsa is usually 90 mins and has been known to be over 3 hours during busier periods such as summer and Christmas. Also, if you want to have a sit-down meal at any of the Disney restaurants, you really do need to book these in advance. Restaurants can be booked 180 days in advance, and some of the most popular ones do actually fully book out at the 180 day mark. But it's always good to keep checking if there's somewhere you really want to eat because people will cancel due to the fact that Disney do levy a no-show charge on people who don't turn up. I'm an annual passholder at Walt Disney World, so if anybody has any trip planning questions, feel free to drop me a PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
