Discounts at Universal Orlando
Universal Orlando provides discounts on tickets, dining and lodging to members of many travel organizations, including automobile clubs such as the American Automobile Association (AAA) and its sister organization in Canada, the CAA. Discounts are also available to Universal Orlando annual passholders. This section is a guide to finding the best discounts for members of these groups and the general public
Admission Discounts
The least expensive admission options are generally found through ticket wholesalers such as UndercoverTourist.com and The Official Ticket Center. Those prices are usually better than Universal offers either on its website or at the park's ticket windows, and often better than those available from travel organizations.
Resort Discounts
- Annual passholders receive discounts of up to 30% on resort lodging, depending on availability. If you're staying at a Universal resort for 2 or more days, you may save enough on lodging to offset the cost of an annual pass for the adult booking the room. Tip: If you're trying to book a room on the Universal Orlando website with an annual pass discount, enter promo code APH on the search screen to see passholder rates.
