Bit of a long shot
We go to orlando on Sat, and I've left everything till the last minute( had a funeral to cope with).

Is there anywhere we can get tickets - (orlando flex plus and the go orlando card) either special delivery so I get them tomorrow or where can I buy them easily in the international drive area

thanks a million

Hi both of these I think you can purchase locally. I know I have seen the flexticket for sale at wet and wild and seaworld, but also places like Walmart will do them as well.

Hi there we travel on the 19th June to Orlando and obviously will be wanting to visit the new Harry Potter ride, after reading on here about people booking for it, is this something you need to book seperate tickets for. We have already bought out Universal passses and our Disney passes so Im a bit confused. Thanks

No, no seperate tickets AFAIK, we have been booking to get the free breakfast and early admission offer that Virgin Holidays are offering when you book with them.

Pleeeeasee come back and let us know how the Forbidden Journey ride is and what age it would be suitable for. Thanks.

Hi,
We are going to Orlando next Tuesday (6th April), have booked everything last minute. I am getting very confused as to what tkts to get and whether I can get them before we go (because of the bank holidays).
We are staying for 10 days and would be looking at going to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot, Kennedy Space Centre and maybe one of the water parks.
Could anyone please help point me in the direction of which tkt bundle (if any) to get and where from?
Thanks very much

Everywhere you go on Orlando you can pick up books of vouchers and they all have kids eat free vouchers in them so I would save your money and head for a supermarket and get the vouchers in those. Depending on where you are staying the hotels usually have them in the foyer too.

Depending on ages/appetites of child/ren it is perfectly acceptable to share a meal- you just ask for an extra plate. In most places you would be left with more than enough for yourself.

Only thing is they would like the tip to be as if the child had their own meal.

( hope that doesn't spark the whole tipping debate again!)

Also if anyone has come back recently can you recommend the best places for Twilight stuff. DD is saving like mad to fill her own shipping container with Twilight goodies and send it back!

Hi Fruity

There is Twilight stuff for sale in a shop called Hot Topic. The closest I can compare it to over here is the Blue Banana chain (if you know it?). It's perfect for metal / emo fans.

I am sure Twilight stuff is available elsewhere so keep your eyes peeled in the supermarkets

Hi debbiep.
we've been 7 times over the past 20 years my grandson is going this time next week with his 'other family' i bought tickets for them from an internet site 'attraction world' they seemed pretty reasonable to me. if youre only going to be there for 10 days i wouldnt waste a day at space kennedy unles there is someone in your party really really interested in it i wouldnt miss bush gardens either and sea world and both those parks are affiliated (part of same group) and there is a new water park belonging to sea world across the road from there and you can buy a ticket to do all 3 and free bus to bush gardens the rides in bush are about the best anywhere if your children are young pace yourselves have a quiet day after 2 days quiet is like sea world or water park
hope you enjoy

For those looking to book tickets, i recently booked mine (on 2nd March) with Theme park tickets direct. i had read some good things about them but wish i had discovered this thread earlier!

My tickets finally arrived yesterday while i was at work and i picked them up today. I go on holiday tomorrow so im disappointed they cut it so close on the delivery.

To make matters worse however several of the vouchers have the incorrect dates on.. one quoting 23rd December 2010 for a trip to Kennedy space centre and now im extremely distressed as i cant get anyone to assist with my problem until after 9am tomorrow.

I will not say do not book with this company as problems will & do occur in most industries however i will say *buyer beware*
