We are going to Florida from 19th to 29th March. Just read the new Aquatica park opens in March. Any idea where we can get best priced tickets and what the actual opening date is? Thanks

Aquatica opens on the 15 march--allegedly!

I have never brought my tickets from Seaworld, in fact never tried to.
I dont mean i would not, just have never tried, Always scout around and then get ATD to price match!
Did not know there were any Seaworld codes for a kick off.

Any advice re theme parks for an Orlando virgin.

Going for 3 weeks from 28th March 2008. Have already bought 21 day Disney Ultimate, Discovery Cove with 14 day access to Seaword, Busch Gardens and Aquatica (Got ATD to price match lowest online price thanks to advice on MSE).

Still want to do Universal, IOA and Wet N Wild. What is the best ticket to buy for this? Dont need flextickets as have already got Seaworld and Busch so not sure which to get.

Any advice please?

Also has anyone used the Itinerary Planner from Brits Guide? If so what is like? Is it worth £20?

Cheers

We used the Itinerary Planner for our first visit. We found it helped give an idea what to do, but in the end we went where we wanted when we felt like it. The busy days guide didn't seem to bear much resemblance to what we found at Universal.

think you'll have to be a litle more specific, is £1500 for the flights + hotel or car/tickets etc,
tickets alone will be over £500 (seaworld around £140, pay for one day get the rest of the year free for $67.95 each through the seaworld website, disney tickets are over £100 each for the basic 7-day magic your way card)
that will leave less than £250 per person for flights and accomodation, personally, i would try and up your budget another £1K at least.

Looking to visit Orlando for 1st time in April.

Any discount codes for any of the parks or help with getting the cheapest entry and where to book would be appreciated. Please PM codes, links etc if possible.

Regards, PJB

You could probably do it quite cheaply if you book late but its a bit more difficult with 4. We went for 12 days last June, flights were £250 each and hotel was £305 for the 12 days and in fact I saw late offers cheaper than doing it DIY after I had booked.

Year before was also a late booking for just a week and I went through teletext simply phoning all the free phone numbers til I found one, I think it was Sky Travel who got me a good deal on flights and hotel.

anyone else?

Generally the best ticket price for Seaworld is direct from the Seaworld website. I'll pm you a code when I find it.

Thanks for the quick reply the £1500 is for flights and hotel think i'll be limited to just the park or seaworld then,:eek: have had a few quotes for around £1600 - £1800 which included car but this is for a hotel with 2 double beds and can't seem to find anything that does a bed for me and my partner and twin room for my kids as i have 1 boy 1 girl.

Another question i have is where would the ideal place be to stay that is near to the attractions or would the price be a lot higher close to all ammenities etc
