We planned to go to the 3 parks on our next trip. They kept sending me emails that said hurry buy 2 get 2 days free ends on the 30th.... I was getting worried.
New Deal starting oct 1st
Buy 2 days get 3 days free

They raised the prices for it...I got the other deal on Sept 30...and 1 park per day, 2 park for 4 days was $218 and $208 before taxes and fees...same ticket now (for the 5 days - 2 + 3 free) is $243 and $233, so you're paying $25 for the 5th day vs the last deal...

They also shortened usage - new ticket is good through Aug 2021...last one was Dec 2021 (I needed flexibility, so I'm glad I jumped:)...
 


Ugh, I wish this new deal allowed for park hopping. :(

"2-Park 2-Day Base + 3-Days Free Promo Ticket entitles one (1) guest admission to EITHER Universal Studios Florida OR Universal’s Islands of Adventure per day"

Haven't been to Universal in a while, but isn't a park hopper required to the Hogwart's Express?
Also .. with crowd levels probably low (and staying low for a long time ) ... I don't know if I could spend 5 days at those two parks .. so 3 free extra days isn't really a "deal" to most, right?. But hey .. good for them to offer it. I find it odd Disney hasn't tried a ticket discount yet to start getting people committed to 2021 trips. *shrug* Guess they don't need to.

It is...I asked my kids if the one ride (which we've been on a lot in the past) was gonna be worth $60/each...they said no (we never hopped before, so it was the only reason to go 2-park)...

I was torn between a seasonal pass and the tickets, but with my health and unlikeliness to get back to Florida 2 years in a row, tickets it was - we tend to do 4-5 days when we go, since we don't go open to close, so the 4 day were perfect (and the 5 day would have been, too)...and the September deal was less than I expected to pay, so it was a win...

Our normal 5th day, we'll probably do the dinner and a movie deal to have a down day and an excuse to tour City Walk late...

I definitely do not need 5 days for two parks... but we did spend 1 day just in Harry potter on the Islands side... so for us more like 3 days.
The parking was $25 so "giving you 3 days" is also possibly collecting $75 in parking fees.

With the announcement of Volcano bay closing November 1st-March that's why three park tix were not offered

I am looking at this deal for a very much hoped for trip next June. I forgot about the need for park hoppers to ride the Hogwarts Express. Thanks! Two parks per day it is.
 
There was a park to park option this morning when I looked, but now it's gone.
