Is this a good offer?

Attraction Tickets Direct have Universal 3 park 14 day tickets for 2020 at £278 each (the offer is adult tickets for child prices.)

I know there’s not a huge difference between adult and child prices anyway, but we’ll need 3 adult tickets and 1 child, so this would save us a fair bit in total. We were planning to wait and see if they had offers on Black Friday - what have the Black Friday offers been in the past? Would you just get these child prices now, or still wait for Black Friday?

Personally I would on the simple basis that there is rarely a discount from Universal other than the offers you get. You won't get a better offer than that and if Black Friday did give a great offer I very much doubt it be more than a couple of dollars better.

Also factor in this - a golden rule that never been wrong - always buy early as the prices always go up over the course of time.

At ths end of the day if is your personal choice. If you dont buy it now you may regret it. On the flip side you may regret buying now if there is a better offer later. But I doubt it and if so I cant see it being only a few dollars better.

That’s pretty much what I was thinking, so I’ve just bought our tickets.

I googled Black Friday deals to see what might have come up in the past and couldn’t see anything to beat this, so I’m happy with the price and it makes sense to get the deal. I just won’t look / listen if anyone shares a better deal later!

floridaescapes.co.uk are selling it for £273 adult, £265 child, but you need to pay in full at the time of booking. Link below.

floridaescapes/spe...20-flash-offer

Also kenwoodtravel.co.uk are selling it for £258 adult, £251 child [unless it's altered] but I think it's a voucher which you need to exchange over there.

I asked ATD about price matching floridaescapes.co.uk and they said that they would but you would need to pay in full at the time of booking, the same as you would with floridaescapes esapes.co.uk.

I don't think ATD will price match kenwoodtravel.co.uk [but I could be wrong] as Kenwood send a voucher whereas ATD send a real ticket and it says the following on the ATD site about price matching.

The ticket being a real ticket, not a voucher or “e-ticket” (in cases where we supply real tickets).
