No trip to a theme park is ever what you’d call cheap, and it seems like they’re getting more expensive every day. Disneyland and Walt Disney World seem to increase prices all the time, to the point that they seem to be intentionally trying to price people out of visiting. Perhaps as a result of prices going up at Disney World, we’ve seen attendance boosted at Universal Orlando Resort in the last year, but now a number of those new visitors may be in for a shock as prices have jumped significantly for Annual Pass holders.
On the same day that new Annual Passes were made available at Walt Disney World for the first time in months, prices jumped on the Annual Pass offerings at Universal Orlando Resort. Florida Residents saw the Preferred Pass go up from $439.99 to $529.99 and the top-of-the-line Premier Pass jump from $639.99 to $789.99. Out-of-state pass holders saw their Preferred Pass go from $539.99 to $629.99 and the Premier Pass go from $754.99 to $904.99.
