Universal tickets through US webiste

We are looking at pooping over to Universal for a couple of days when we at Disney this summer. As we are only going a couple of days, the 14 day tickets you seem to get on all the UK sites seem to be overkill a little.

The Official universal website (american version) seems to be one of the only places you can get single day or two day tickets. After taxes, and foreign currency fees the tickets seem to come out at £183 per ticket for two days.

Has anyone got any experience of ordering from the US site? is it as simple as getting an email with your e-ticket and you're done?

At check-out you'll be given several options for how you want to receive your tickets, i.e. collect at will call, print at home or delivery (at a cost). I'd look into undercovertourist as they were slightly cheaper than Universal when I was looking for tickets a week ago and they have free delivery. There was a discount code a few people on here have been able to use on musement as well that got you 20% off, but it seems the code is no longer being accepted.

The US website is offering 2 days free with their 2 day passes so 4 days for 2.

Those tickets have to be used by 31 May though, but if you go before then that is a great deal for sure.

Don't forget if you want to ride the Hogwarts Express you will need the Park to Park ticket. If you want a 2 Day Park to Park ticket try orlandoattractions.com, link below. I should mention that these will be E-Tickets from this site.

orlandoattractions/t...o-park-tickets

If you want the Base tickets try undercovertourist. You can either have the tickets mailed to you or have them sent as an E-Ticket. They also do the 2 Day Park to Park ticket but they are dearer than orlandoattractions.com.

I bought my annual pass from the us website. Very easy.

Undercover tourist is also good, especially if you have a Halifax clarity card or similar
