Nice to have more options, I guess, but is anyone really clamoring to do two waterparks in one day? I'm tired, sore, and sunburnt after just one.

I could see me doing this maybe... Blizzard Beach is exhausting! So relaxing at Typhoon Lagoon afterwards might be quite nice.

I think it merits a trial, defiantely not a bad idea it'll be interesting to see how popular it is.

This may be useful if one park is really crowded and you have the option to try the other one

I've always wondered why they didn't do this. You could effectively do it already with Water Park Fun and More or, as we have, Premium AP. When we've hit both water parks in one day, getting from one to the other without a car was a major pain. I really hope this option sticks, both for transportation and tickets.

I would totally do this.

I think this will be surprisingly popular, especially in peak periods when one water park might be out of sun loungers but the other still has lots of space.

We've been waiting for this bus about 10 years now. About time it showed up.

This is great news! It means you can try both parks in the same day conveniently, and if you have a short visit it will make better use of your time.

So here's a question then... If someone gets an X day park pass with park hopper and the waterparks and more option, if they hop between the two waterparks in one day, will that use two of the waterpark entitlements, or just one (I guess what I'm asking is does the normal park hopper option apply to the waterparks too, or do they require a separate park hopper).

 

[BrerJon]

My guess is nothing will change on the tickets. Tickets with unlimited water park use will still have that, while those with a certain number of visits will count two parks as two visits.

Probably correct.
If you purchased tickets without the new waterpark hopper option, those tickets aren't going to be upgraded automatically.

super cool idea, just would be great if they would make a locker hopper pass too, since would suck to have to pay for a locker twice.

Well this actually makes a lot of sense. Makes you wonder why they didnt try it years ago.

I like this option, see if it sticks around

It will use 2 Water Park Fun & More entitlements. The only ticket with the water park hopper is the 1-Day Water Park ticket. If you go during a lower priced season period (basically anything except End of May - End of August) then its $53 for the 1-Day Seasonal Water Park Hopper and if you want to go during the peak period then its $58

Does anyone know if this is still operating? Will it be running on Memorial Day Weekend?

It ended mid April unfortunately. It may be back, but as of now, it is back to transferring bus at a resort or at Epcot.
