Is Universal really going to cost me £1700 for 2 days?

If one of you (and it only has to be one) had a Universal Orlando Annual Pass (Preferred), you can sometimes get room discounts at the three with FOLP, you get reduced parking, 15% off merchandise and food in City Walk and the Parks and can buy reduced tickets for the remainder of your party.

Can’t get over how much it’s gone up. We went in 2015 and it was £119 per person for a 14 day park tickets that is. I know it’s got a water park now and I guess the ROE has a lot to do with it too. We got 1.56 in 2015 !

Wow! Our 2 day trip is going to cost us a fortune. If it wasn't our HP-mad daughter's birthday while we're there, I'd be seriously considering not doing it at all!

We are going to Orlando before we get a cruise at Fort Lauderdale Nd it’s all DH, DD16,DD21 want to do... well maybe epcot world showcase too. So for us it’s a must. I don’t think you will regret it. But I say that about pretty much everything I have done in Orlando. 😀

I can decide to add universal or not. People give out about disney increases all the time. With topcash back and the 300 usd at POFQ Disney comes at 338 euro a night for food, theme park tickets and accommodation.

I have 140 euro hotels.com credit and including this the cheapest I can get universal is 912 euro for night and 2 day base tickets. This does not include parking or food, but forgetting parking 912 euro for universal hotel is 460 a day, excluding food... actually this is not crazy bad I think. Not sure.

we may look at seaworld prices.

It has become so expensive to do a couple of days at Universal. The cost of the tickets for Universal have increased so much. When I priced up for next summer the tickets are coming up £1,108 for 4. When I priced out this time last year for 2019 they were £857.68. In 2015 I paid £478.80 for the same tickets. In 2015 we stayed the first night at the Fairfield Inn, Universal and then one night at Hard Rock Hotel getting the two days of express passes. My son is really keen to go back to universal so may bite the bullet.
