[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forgot to mention this in my last post.  What some regular US visitors say to do is to check how much it will be to get a one night at one of the on-site hotels, pick the cheapest rate, even if you are staying off site.  Make sure you actually check into the room.  And you will get your front of the line passes cheaper than buying them and it will give you 2 days of them with one night  It will also give you a place to rest or relax during the day if needed.  Parking might be included, I'm not sure.[/quote]

We are going in October and this is what we did. Instead of buying the passes separately, we are staying at Royal Pacific. It was around $280 per night and we get the express passes for free plus 1 hour early entry for Harry Potter. We thought it was worth the ~$100 per night premium.[/quote]

I'm the previous poster.  Just to clarify, I meant still keep your off-site hotel plans but take 2 days out of your trip and just book the least expensive hotel on site and  still spend the nite off-sight, get up early and check in so you can get your front of the line passes and then do the parks for 2 days.  Then check out and go back to your original hotel.  When we were there it would have been $90 a person to buy the express passes (plus HP wasn't included) each for the four of us for one day.  For about $200 you can just get a room and get the passes for free.[/quote]

$90 x 2 &lt; $200

Why would you go through the trouble of booking a hotel room that you are not going to use for passes that cost less than the cost of the room? Am I missing something?[/quote]
