If you're like many people, the most difficult part of planning a trip to Orlando is trying to decipher the myriad of theme park tickets available.What's the best deal? Why are there so many different ticket combinations?
Obviously, there's no one answer. Only you can determine the best ticket for you depending on your budget, your preferences and the amount of time you'd like to spend in a park.
If you plan to visit a park more than once, multi-day and multi-park tickets can save you money while providing greater flexibility and added convenience. Why stand in a variety of lines every day if you can purchase tickets once in advance? You'll save time, and usually save a little money, as well.
Plus, a multi-park ticket allows you an opportunity to visit parks that may not have originally been on your itinerary without making a major investment in cost. Or, if you have already visited each of the parks on a multi-park ticket, and you already know your preferred activities, you can maximize your time and move more quickly from park to park to catch all of your favorites.
When buying multi-day and multi-park tickets, you'll also want to consider the duration and rules of the ticket.
The length of valid duration varies by ticket, but most set specific time frames and expiration dates - such as up to so many consecutive days. Each ticket has its own restrictions and it is a good idea to read the restrictions carefully before you purchase. Can you hop from one park to another during a given day? Does the ticket expire this week? Or can you come back and use it again a year from now? Or three years from now?
Typically, the more days or parks your ticket covers, the larger the savings. So the more you go, the more you can save. But if you won't be able to use the features of a multi-park ticket enough to justify its cost, forget it.
Or, if you feel pressured to visit the parks provided on a certain multi-park ticket to justify its cost and have to forego parks you'd really rather see, then it's best to find another ticket. This is your vacation . . . and you'll want to make the most of it.
An Orlando vacation can be ideal for the entire family. There are enough parks and attractions to satisfy everyone. Think about what's best for you, then take ample time to research the ticket options available to you.
