SeaWorld Parks and Entertainment Launch New Kids Ticket Campaign

[Delirium_Guy]

$5 kids ticket, with 100% going to fund non-profit groups working on conservation efforts. I think this is awesome!

Very cool! And also very strange! That means, for the next year, only people over the age of 13 need to pay (I consider $5.00 "not paying") to get into SeaWorld. I can't imagine that would help profits... But then again, maybe this will bring in a ton more families now that they save like $40 per kid. Haha. This is probably either the dumbest or smartest thing a park has done in years. We shall see!

Good move by Sea World Parks and Entertainment.

And I think when Holiday World started offering "free" soft drinks, many people thought they were crazy as well. Look how successful that park has become...

This will help Sea World's bottom line simply because they get to take all those donations off their taxes next year. The guests purchasing the tickets also get to choose which group the donation goes to, which makes them feel good. It will encourage more families to go, which means more people in the park spending money (though I've never been to a Sea World, so I have no clue how it compares to a park like KI or CP).

Thanks Todd for the heads up. Miss Rae will be 10 when we visit this fall. I do have a question for you if you don't mind. We plan to hit all Sea World parks including Aquatica, and as of now plan to do Discovery Cove on September 29. What ticket combo/discount code would work best in our case? Right now I think the Ultimate DC which includes admissions to all the other parks is our best bet with the code DCFAN which would give us $80.. off per person. ANy inside help from you would be great. tell the kids:P (dogs) hi for me thanks.
