Waterpark & More Details?

[txdisneyfanatic]

We are considering adding the Waterpark & More option to our tickets this year for the very first time. If we have 5-day tickets, does this mean that we could visit one place each day or the same place for 2 days, etc? We noticed that the options are Blizzard Beach, DisneyQuest, Typhoon Lagoon, Wide World of Sports, etc...but we just aren't sure how this works. Thanks 4 any advice!

Your 5 day admission with the Water Park & More option will get you 5 admissinos to the water parks, etc. I'm not sure if upgrading to the Park Hopper option would increase that, but I'm pretty sure you will find the 5 to be enough anyhow.

This information can be confirmed at the official WDW site under Tickets and Packages FAQ.

We are going to be adding this to our tickets, as well, in August. My understanding is that for however many days you have park tickets, that is how many times you can use the upgrade for the various venues.

So, if you have 5 day tickets, you will have 5 opportunities to visit either the waterparks, DQ, play golf at Oak Trail golf course or gain admission to the WWofS complex. You could go to the waterparks part of one day, and DQ at night... but that would count as two uses of the WPF&M pass... or you could go to the waterparks 5 days in a row, etc.

I hope that makes sense... I do know that if you plan on going to the waterparks more than once in a trip, it's already a savings to add it to your tickets... anything you use the passes for above that is just extra savings.

I just added the waterparks and fun to my hopper, as we are going for nine days in August, and I agree with Blythe, for my family of 4 to go to a waterpark for a day, it's over $100, Myrtle Waves last summer was $140, so if I go twice in my nine days (which is HIGHLY LIKELY) it's a win!!!

Above posters are correct, but just to clarify, having park hopping on your theme park passes has NOTHING to do with the Water Parks & More options. Buying the water parks option gives you the same number of admissions as your base tickets, which you can use as you wish before they expire. Having a hopper option on your parks passes does not give you any more admissions. There is no hopping for the water parks and DQ.

The waterpark plus options are confusing.
They do not act quite the same as the park tickets. No multiple hops option.
1 visit to TL is 1 option
1 visit to TL, with DQ later that day is 2 options
2 visits to TL on 2 different days is 2 options
2nd visits on the same day to 1 place is merely a return and only takes 1 option
1 day short stops at TL, BB and DQ would be 3 options used up on that 1 day!
Enjoy your choices.

What if you bought 5 day base tickets with the water park add on...Can you go to BB the first part of the day and then MK for the evening? Or is this considered park hopping?

1. Theme Park admissions and the Water Park & more options (admissions) are completely separate. Neither has anything to do with the other, except for the number of WP&M you get for your money.

2. If you visit a water park, that uses up one of your WP&M options. To visit a theme park on the same day will use one of your days (of admission) form your base ticket. That is not park hopping.

3. Park hopping refers to visiting more than one of the main theme parks (MK, Epcot, DHS and AK) on the same day. The ONLY way you can do that is with a Park Hopper added to your base tickets.

4. There is no "hopping" option among the Waterparks, DQ or other places you can use the WP&M options. Any visit to more than one of those places on the same day requires the use separate admission from the total number of admissions you have available on your WP&M add-on.

Hope that makes sense.

Thank you... yes, this was helpful.
