Free Parking at Disney World?

The Most Miserly Mom regrets to say that Disney World does not offer free parking at The Magic Kingdom, Epcot, or Disney MGM Studios. You can, however, park at any of the Disney hotel resorts free of charge. Free parking is also offered at Disney's water parks - both Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard beach offer free parking. The normal daily parking rate is $10. Disney does allow the parking pass to be used at multiple parks within the same day -- So if you plan on visiting more than one Disney park during one day you only have to pay once.

Universal Studios parking costs $10 per day - or you can park in a preferred spot (closer to the entrance) for $4 more. The Most Miserly Mom does not think the preferred parking is worth it though - almost all parking is convenient at Universal Studios. If you purchase a preferred annual pass $179.95 (which you can pay in monthly installments if you wish) parking is free of charge.

Sea World Orlando also charges $10 for parking and $15 for preferred parking.

Here is a Mom's Miserly Tip: Take a picture of your parking space with your digital camera or cell phone so that you can remember where you parked!
