    DAY TICKETS v 14 DAY FLEXI ???

    We want to visit Wet n Wild, Epcot and Universal Studios but really aren't sure what other attractions we want to go see, Busch gardens etc don't appeal to us at this stage (but who knows how we'll feel when we get there). Here's the question......

    Because we don't intend this to be a 'theme park only' kind of trip, can anybody tell us whether it would be better to buy individual tickets or bulk buy. If bulk buy is the answer, is there anywhere you can 'customise' which parks you buy tickets for. All we've found so far are packages that include tickets for places we don't really want to go to.

    If you check out the park tickets link above, they have a fun in the sun ticket package, that might well suit your needs.

    If you DM me a list of parks and the amount of days you want in each, I will put a package together for you

    Don't buy off ebay, I have weekly sob stories about that. Tickets with nothing on them (you have no way of telling until you try them at the entrance), tickets with an few days left but fingerprinted to the original owner. Tickets do not turn up. No valid agent will sell on ebay and it is illegal to resell Disney tickets.....For what you will actually save it is not worth the risk.

    Good advice indeed, looks like we won't win the auction anyway - thanks.

    Couldn't agree more with Martin-I have trawled many, many sites looking for a "cheap" option but the truth is the best prices and service and reliability are on here.

    Norrie, don't take the risk. You will not get a better deal than on here and believe me we tried twice. This time we didn't even bother spending hours trawling the net trying to get a cheaper price. I have no axe to grind either way, if I could have got cheaper elsewhere I would have. In addition to the price is the service Martin provides. You only have to see some of the previous postings of that Martin has sorted so speedily; someone who had a problem at Cirque de Soleil recently, on the door I think and Martin had it sorted (problem was Cirque not Martin!) Obviously you probably won't have a problem but it's nice to know the backup is there just in case.

    I wouldn't buy from ebay either. There are plenty of places to buy tickets which will not rip you off. There would be nothing worse than turning up with invalid tickets which cost you money.

    We like the 14 day flexi ticket but everyone is different. We like to pop in and out the parks and never stay even close to a full day so a smaller ticket would not suit our needs. Think about what sort of day you want to have and then buy what suits your needs. We have young children so a half day or just an evening suits us better. We spread our visits through the holiday instead of doing everything in a day.

    Please remember that when you get to the gate at disney with your ticket they take a digital reading of your fingerprint so only you can use that ticket. Its a big risk to take.

    Sorry just realised you meant the universal 14 day not disney but I guess the same idea applies. I think Universal and SeaWorld also check your fingerprints - i can't remember and it was only a month ago!!!
