WALT DISNEY WORLD
Hollywood Studios starts their Star Wars Tours this week so if your guests appear to be big Star Wars fans, suggest this (7 hour) tour to them. Epcot starts their Art Festival on the 13th (weekends only) where they showcase Disney art and specialty foods. Explain all ticket options with your guests, who might not know about Park Hopping or the Water Park and More options. BLIZZARD BEACH CLOSED – Saturday 1/9 through Monday 1/11. WE ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO ACTIVATE FLORIDA RESIDENT TICKETS USING THE DISNEY FLORIDA RESIDENT SHELLS. Please read Rick’s message on When to Work. Remember we are currently in REGULAR ticket season for one day tickets.
UNIVERSAL STUDIOS
THE 1 DAY PTP PROMO TICKETS ARE NO LONGER VALID AND NOW MUST BE PRINTED ACCORDING TO SEASON. You must NOW sell and print them according to PEAK, VALUE, and REGULAR season. When printing tickets in Instant Ticket Wizard, the NEW TICKETS are all the way at the bottom of the ticket store and listed as “In Market Program 2017”. We now have special 2 Park 2 Day Base tickets that will give you MORE commission than before. MAKE SURE YOU READ ALL TICKETS OUT LOUD TO THE GUEST WHEN HANDING THEM OVER!
Did you know that guests enjoy FREE ADMISSION to select CityWalk® venues with their Blue Man Group ticket stub? Let your guests know this when selling your Blue Man Group tickets!

AQUATICA CLOSED – Saturday 1/9 and Sunday 1/10. Now is the time to really push Discovery Cove. January day packages are the lowest they are all year. Not only is it all inclusive (food, drinks, and wetsuits are all complimentary) but your guests also get UNLIMITED access for 14 days to Seaworld and Aquatica. Make sure to check the schedule because Discovery Cove is sometimes closed Tuesday-Thursdays. Try to add on the Dolphin Swim for more commissions. Sell, sell, sell!
