Orlando Disney/Park tickets WWYD?

I should know the answer as been many times previously but not as simple this time due to ages of DC (and cost of tickets which seem to have gone up significantly)
Going next month with DH and DC aged 19, 16, 5 and 3 so what is good for some not good for others.

Between us we want to do Seaworld, IOA, (not fussed with Universal but will go if tickets part of a good deal) Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom.

Was going to get the flextickets we got last time for Seaworld, Universal/IOA, Aquatica and wet and Wild (although never bothered going) and then a 1 or 2 day Disney ticket as think the little ones would love Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. Am completely shocked by the prices. On the face of it, it seems that one day in Disney for all of us will be around $560 Shock We are only going for 2 weeks this time (so ony 12 days to actually do something) whereas we normally go for around 19 days.

Part of me is tempted to re-mortage the house (almost) and buy the 5 or 10 day Disney passes with non expiry and water park days which in the long run is better value for money but it is sooooooooooooooooo expensive!

Seasoned travellers, WWYD? Am exhausted looking at the various options.

We went for 14 days and bought the full disney and universal passes. universal is miles better for the older ones - the rides are more targetted at them and there is of course now Harry Potter world which has to be seen to be believed it is so good. Agree that the prices seem to have really gone up - 19 and 16 will be treated as adults and you are probably paying for the over 3 for the first time so this is why it seems a lot. you can do disney and uni for cheaper but we liked the flexibility to come and go as we wanted between the parks and water parks.

Thanks for that. We've been loads of times and done a lot of the parks to death. Really not fussed about 2 of the Disney parks nor Universal.

I think the prices went up on 1st June which is a pain as if I'd known I'd have bought the tickets in advance Sad

Big 2 loved the Harry Potter stuff and DD (aged 5) loved that damm ride with red and blue fish and had us all singing the song for months. Its like IOA's version of its a small world Wink

Did you do legoland? We are wondering whether to go there as apparently there are some really good offers on.
