Florida theme parks certainly want to showcase Floridians.
As amusement parks continue to try to track crowds after several months of coronavirus-forced shutdowns, it seems that some parks in Florida are aiming to keep things local. In fact, two of the state’s largest theme parks offer steep discounts on maps, but only to Floridians.
Universal Studios and Disney World recently announced deep discounts for Florida residents.

Disney World is offering Florida residents discounts of up to four days at a time. The park offers two-, three-, or four-day ticket packages under a program called the ‘Florida Resident Disney Magic Flex Ticket’, starting at $ 130 (or $ 65 per day) for the two-day pass, $ 174 (or $ 58 per day) for a three-day pass, and $ 195 (or $ 49 per day) for a four-day pass.
The two- and three-day passes are good through the end of September and the end of November, respectively. Meanwhile, the four-day passes are not valid until November 29 and will be valid until mid-December.
Those who purchase the Flex Tickets are required to provide a billing address in Florida for all credit card payments. Once in the park, “all the adults” in the party will have to show proof of stay in Florida.
