Am planning to buy the "2-park unlimited admission" 7-day universal ticket, online via Universal.
Can anyone tell me - how does this work - do I get sent a ticket, or do I just print off the confirmation, take it to the turnstile with ID, and they turn it into a ticket?
Many thanks

Hi
Yes you can do that(print at home) or go to the electronic ticket booth near entrance and swipe the card you used to pay with and collect tickets from the machine.

Thanks Deana. And from where, which ride should we run to??? Is Back to the Future still there or am I showing my age and lack of recent experience ...

We use electronic pick-up, just go to the machine at the park entrance, swipe your credit card and enter the confirmation number and your tickets will print.
BTTF closed last year, the Simpsons ride will replace it, opening soon.

If you print at home you just take confirmation to guest services with photo ID or the machines are located just before entry point. Unfortunately Back To The Future has gone and has been replaced with the new Simpsons ride.

Thanks all. Gutted about BTTF, was my favourite ride, but I am quite sure that won't put a dampener on it. The trip is a surprise for my daughter, she doesn't know yet, although she can probably tell that I am currently The Most Excited Mummy Around !

Hope you have a lovely time - we are out there for my daughter's 21st and she knows and is still really excited about it and counting the days!
We haven't been since 2003 so it will be interesting to see what else has changed or gone.

Do children also need photo id for collection ???

No just the person who booked the tickets - I think! I am sure another Dibber will correct me if I'm wrong.

when you print your ticket at home - you go straight to the turnstiles - there is no need to go and pick up whilst you are there, the ticket you print at home is your ticket to get into the park.
I would bring photo id's for all people as their name is on each individual ticket and also make sure you take the credit card you booked the tickets with.

I emailed guest services about this recently in relation to annual passes. They require all adults to have photo ID but not children.
If you elect to collect by electronic collection then you will not require any id as you simply collect the tickets from an ATM at the gates......oh and make sure you have the card you ordered the tickets with and don't use a card which expires before you go like me :blush:
we also have decided to get the 7-day ticket for $86.98. Am I correct in thinking that the 7-days are from the first day of use?
Thanks
Yes you are correct. The 7 day tickets expire 6 days after the first day of use.
