We haven't been back since 2008. This is just another disincentive for us. But as long as the parks remain packed I fear these huge price increases will remain inevitable.

Originally Posted By alphabetmom I don't like price increases either and don't live near Disneyland to go very often. But how I justify it, I went to 3 plays last year. All 3 cost more than a single park single day at Disneyland. Plus we had to pay to park.
Originally Posted By CuriousConstance It's still easily justifiable. So people will still pay it. One day to Universal is $77. Compared that to one day one park at DL, and it's only $10 less than DL. And the two can't really be compared, IMO.
Originally Posted By Manfried "It's still easily justifiable. So people will still pay it." Yep, I bet nearly 1 million people will pay the increase. If you want to complain, complain the way it actually makes a business listen. Don't buy the product. Otherwise, kwitcherbellyachin.
Originally Posted By schnebs One thing about ticket prices at Uni, or most of the other Southern California parks: The stated price at the gate may be only $10 less than DL, but Uni and all the other parks are always running discount offers (buy a day, get the year free, AAA, coupons, etc.) If you're paying full price at the other SoCal parks, you're a fool or a tourist (but I repeat myself). If you're paying full price at Disney, that's the norm more often than not.

" If I'm from out of state coming early next year, and want to visit Universal one day only, how can I get it cheaper than the $77? I seriously want to know because my son has never been and it's been about 6 or 7 years since we've been there, and might be interested in checking out the new Transformers ride. Haven't decided but it would be something new to throw in the vacation mix.

Originally Posted By CuriousConstance I was thinking about that, I have no interest in SeaWorld though, and might need a 4 day hopper. I wish it was flexible in your options.
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Sea World is actually a very nice park and you don't need to run it commando style, so it's not bad for a "rest" day. But you're right, they should offer more options like a 4 day PH or 2 Uni days. As a So Cal local I've never used a CP myself, but at some point I may go for the Florida version of it when visiting Orlando.

Originally Posted By CuriousConstance We went to SeaWorld one time a few years ago. I think it was a combo of factors involved made the trip kinda miserable. It was so hot and it seemed like there was no escape from the heat, we had a toddler and an infant, I didn't know anything about the park beforehand etc, etc.
Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt I've never been to Sea World, but I've been to similar parks and I hate that there's not much to do besides programmed animal shows. Once you've seen a whale jump out of a pool, a bird talk or stroll through an aquarium, the whole experience gets kind of boring.
