So for hotel guests, you have to check in to the hotel and then presumably hope that tickets are still available once you're there? And it would be a purchase on top of the ticket you presumably already bought for the two existing parks? That's... something.

Got a ticket for April 27th! It's nice to have two days on the docket, takes some of the pressure off my Memorial Day visit.

Do we think parking will be free for APs? If it's not, I'll probably end up parking at the main garage in the morning, taking the bus to Stella Nova, and walking in, which is the sort of thing I assume they want to avoid.

No. The demand is there to facilitate the price. If you don't want to be at previews just wait until the opening.

Is it? All the days are still available. I get it is popular here, but I know many AP holders and not a single one is paying this price. Most are shocked at the price. So is the demand there for every day APs or just diehard fans? I guess we will find out. I can say personally I was shocked when selling Girl Scout cookies the difference in Central Florida last year at this time and this year. Way less people are out shopping in general, cookie sales TANKED compared to prior years. This was across the board. Same with PTA fundraising. I know for me I am not spending less, so it was a shock to see the large number of people spending much less than prior years.

They must be feeling pretty confident that things will fun fairly normally. At least that's what I'm hoping

They have warnings when you purchase, so not sure they are. They probably have fingers crossed.

tm preview tickets had verbiage on the tix that parking was included. I was going to ask if there is similar verbiage on these 'preview' tickets? If it does show parking included, that might be them trying to say that the ticket is discounted since it includes parking. If not, who knows?!?

Does anyone know if express will be offered for Previews?

 

[JohnHammondsCane]

Been in queue for 30 minutes past my expected time. Now the line is paused.

And NOW I see that it's $123/ticket for a preview where Ministry and DK could be down? Man, that's a gamble

 

[rhino4evr]

Kinda crappy they opened this to hotel guests and AP holders at the same time. So much for an added benefit for being an AP holder

Yup, purchased at the park.

 

[RFRees]

Would love to know Express pricing if anyone has seen it.

It is on the website. We purchased the 3 park one express ride a day for 4 days in December. I believe it was like? $400 a person.

You got first dibs on one-day tickets and an exclusive window that other guests can’t access from 5/22 - 5/31 unless they bought a vacation package. You’re still part of an exclusive group for previews. I don't know what else you want…because you have to share the spotlight with on-site guests who have to wait til their stay to get a ticket?

 

[Tyc00n96]

Out of curiosity, what do you need to actually walk in for the preview. My email mentioned having an ID and the pass itself but do I have to will call the actual ticket?

 

[tyro]

Ugh, the weekend I would be able to go is weekend of May 9 and 10 hopefully those open soon. Or I guess I will have to wait until Sept. The onsite hotel guest preview availability is a pleasant surprise though.

 

[RFRees]

Anyone else not get an email confirmation?

Edit: I just spoke with Customer Service and they said it could take up to 24 hours, so I guess I'm trying again tomorrow.

 

[Brian G.]

I just bought mine for the 17th and got it immediately.

Did not get a confirmation email yet

 

[JohnHammondsCane]

Bought mine for May 4th and got my confirmation immediately. I believe all dates were open as of 2:40 PM CST, FYI
