News: Disney surfs up with new water park pass

Posted at 9:13 PM EST (0213 GMT)

Feb. 22nd, 2007 -- Walt Disney World has announced that it is offering a new annual Water park pass for its Florida patrons.

On February 21, 2007, Walt Disney World announced that it has added a new offering to their admissions pallet. The new deal will offer Florida residents annual entry to the Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach water parks.

The only condition for this new deal is that the pass is only valid after 2 p.m. daily. The pass will cost Florida residents $59 plus tax for patrons 10 and older, while it will cost about $47 for children between the ages of 3 and 9.
Dave Herbst, Disney Spokesperson, said that the passes are directed towards those living nearby.

In addition, the parks are offering another deal allowing unlimited entry to both places costing $99.95, with $80.50 for children between the ages of 3 and 9.

A normal single-day ticket to one of the parks costs $39; however, Typhoon Lagoon is closed for refurbishments, but will reopen to Disney patrons March 18.

So you can get into the water park for a few hours in the after noon and cool down after a day of doing other things. You most likely aren't going to use a full day if it's a week day.

I love DW Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 1951 View Park/Ride Count	I think this is a good idea because some people may not want to spend the money for the Premium Annual Pass but still want to at least go to something Disney. This way they could go to the water parks instead if they don't have enough money for an all park pass.
