Just when you thought that the tickets here in Orlando had reached a point of understanding, think again. I say this in a good way as Universal Studios Orlando Resort has come out with a very vacation friendly ticket line that is sure to please all vacationers here to central Florida. The line of Universal’s new, “Select Ticket Program” will be in effect on Monday, January 18th here at The Official Ticket Center. In a way, they are the same as the Walt Disney World tickets, minus the water parks. The first line of tickets will be the Universal Studios Base Tickets. These are just like the Disney base tickets that get you into one of their two parks for one visit a day. The base tickets are not hopper tickets and will not allow you to go from park to park.
The line will consist of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 Day Base Tickets. The 1-Day Base Ticket entitles one (1) guest admission to ONE (1) Universal Orlando Resort (UOR) theme park on any one (1) calendar day. The Multi-Day Base Tickets are good for one park a day within a 14-day period. For example, the 7-Day Base Ticket entitles one (1) guest admission to ONE (1) UOR theme park per day. Ticket is valid for any seven (7) calendar days during a fourteen (14) consecutive calendar day period which includes the first day any portion of the ticket is used. This ticket also includes fourteen (14) consecutive calendar days of admission to the paid entertainment venues of UniversalCityWalk® (“CityWalk“) which commences and includes the first day any portion of the ticket is used.
Now Universal Studios tickets also include the new Park to Park tickets as well. These are just like the Disney Hopper tickets that allow you to go from one park to another park in the same day, except there will be only 2 parks at Universal Studios. These 2 parks are Universal Studios Orlando and Islands of Adventure.
The Park to Park tickets include 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 day options. The 1-Day Park to Park Ticket entitles one (1) guest admission to BOTH UOR theme parks on any one (1) calendar day. The Multi-Day Park to Park Ticket allows the guest to hop from park to park for however many days the ticket allows for within a 14 day period. For exmaple, the 7 day Park to Park hopper ticket entitles one (1) guest admission to BOTH UOR theme parks on the same day for the duration of the ticket. Ticket is valid for any seven (7) calendar days during a fourteen (14) consecutive calendar day period which includes the first day any portion of the ticket is used. This ticket also includes fourteen (14) consecutive calendar days of admission to the paid entertainment venues of Universal CityWalk® (“CityWalk“) which commences and includes the first day any portion of the ticket is used.
