Prices have jumped immediately to $75.00 a ticket. That's a $4.00 increase." <a href="http://www.wftv.com/news/17108831/detail.html" target="_blank">http://www.wftv.com/news/17108...ail.html</a>
Originally Posted By Mr X ***But they have actually dropped the price of the 7/day,2parks+waterpark $4.01 from $99.00 to $94.99*** Is this still true though? 95 bucks for 7 days of both parks plus a waterpark (which waterpark, I wonder?). If so, GREAT deal. That's cheaper than it cost for my three year old to buy a one day ticket at Disney over Christmas (pretty pathetic, how much they're trying to charge over there I think!).

We might concentrate our money elsewhere, given the extreme price hikes in Orlando these days (Tokyo Disneyland still costs only about fifty dollars per person, per park, for adults).
Originally Posted By Mr X Sorry...closer to sixty dollars actually (it's difficult to figure the exchange rate...a couple of months ago the actual cost was closer to fifty, but now the exchange rate is a little better for the dollar...so about sixty bucks for an adult).
