SeaWorld's Sky Tower Now Available Free of Charge

Monday, January 16, 2012 ,

Thanks to a report from Screamscape, we found out a very good news: SeaWorld Orlando's Sky Tower attraction will finally be included in the ticket price, removing the $4 surcharge. From the park's website:

Sky Tower

Our 400-foot Sky Tower has stood as an icon for our park since we opened in 1974. Today the Sky Tower adds a dose of retro-cool to the day’s adventures. Get a seabird’s eye view of Orlando during this leisurely capsule ride, and take a load off as you plot the rest of your day in the park.

Starting January 12, 2012 the Sky Tower will be free to all guests.

This is really great to hear, as the park already offers a very limited amount of rides. Of course, this could only be a temporary adjustment, due to the fact that the Manatee Encounter exhibit, the Penguin Encounter area, and Journey to Atlantis are all closed for refurbishment at the moment. We'll have to wait and see.

    Very good news,I however have to wonder if the lines will get a bit too long,even if they do it's probably the right thing to do,I'm sure a lot of people who already pay the hefty admission for an entire family probably don't look too kindly at paying another $20 or so for the whole family to go up.I have the Platinum pass which is the most expensive annual pass and for years Platinum passholders rode it free and then about a year or two ago they started charging everybody which I'm sure enfuriated pretty much every platinum passholder,sure lines might get a but longer now but at least I'll ride where I wouldn't before as there's no way I would pay to ride it after getting to ride it free for years with the platinum.I actually rode them a note when they started charging the platinums,maybe I helped the policy change.

    One thing to remember, Not only did Platinum get it for free for years but Every pass, excluding fun card, received free rides on the skytower. Ironically tihs actually degrades the "Quick Queue" value since they got a free ride on the skytower after they started charging passholders a dollar less than everyone else to ride.
