$ v Ł Tickets prices.

TimP · 16 Aug 09, 07:13 PM

Having looked through four different site looking for the best deals, I can only find Orlando Attractions that gives tickets in both currencies.

I am wanting MYW Base 6 days, Universal 2 park and Seaworld & Aquatica at present the Ł price is Ł1092 for 4 of us.

If I buy from a US site in $ what rate of exchange can I assume,? is the bank rates different from those of FairFX, Thomas Ex, etc ?

Cos' if I but MYW from Orlando attractions and the rest from another site @ 1.63 I can save Ł59.

My question is really, how much differnce is there between the rates my CC will charge and that of the Tourist rates ?

If the dollar should reach 1.75 then the tickets I want will be Ł1009 a Ł93 saving !

Most credit cards factor in a conversion 'fee' of 2.5% - 3%

If you have an Abbey Zero or Post Office card you should get close to the bank rate - Nationwide is about 1% I think
