Drop offs at parks

[cherry]

We shall be in Florida in 12 days and we have some relatives coming to our villa for the first time,not wanting to throw them in at the deep end we have rented a 7 seater van and I will do most of the driving unless they decide to want to have a go.Bearing in mind we have been visiting Florida for 17 yrs and do not need to see most of the tourist attractions we want to drop them off at a park and collect them later in the day so we can use the van ourselves to go elsewhere .Question is ,Where do you drop off at the parks without having to go through the car park entry systems ,I mean all disney parks and Seaworld .We are going to do the Universal one as we know there is a lot of new things there .
Any help appreciated .

You have to go through the normal car park pay booth system for all of the Parks except Universal and IOA. At Universal just follow the signs for guest drop off as this is separate to the normal car parks.

With the other Parks you just tell the attendant at the pay booth that you are dropping off only. You will not have to pay anything. At all of the Disney Parks & Busch Gardens you will be told to follow the blue line (disabled users parking area). At Seaworld they will give you a card that they put under the windscreen wiper which says "Drop Off Only" and then tell you to follow the blue line. It is not a problem at all.

Picking up is easy and you just go through the same process. If the Park is near to closing there will be no one at the pay booths so you just drive through to where you dropped them off.

it's a good idea to buy some two way radios-very cheap at walmart-and you can use them within a 2 mile radius of the parks.

You can then get in touch with them just as you approach-just in case there's been a problem, bit of a delay-someone's got lost-you, last minute dash to the loo etc you know the story-lol!
