The Loews Hotels at the Universal Orlando Resort are making it possible for you to keep your conservation hat on while vacationing in Orlando. The recent Earth Day celebration probably has you thinking about how you can stay “green” on vacation. Well, since saving is on your mind, start right now. Save both money and time by getting your Universal tickets, Sea World tickets, Disney tickets and all of your Orlando attraction tickets at OrlandoFunTickets.com, your one-stop shop for Orlando theme park tickets.

The Universal Orlando Resort announced a new conservation program last year that persuades Universal employees and Universal theme park guests to “go green.” The Universal Orlando Resort has 3 hotels on property, all adjacent to Universal Studios Florida, Universal’s Islands of Adventure and Universal CityWalk. And all 3 Loews hotels at the Universal Resort have taken a step up to the conservation plate by voluntarily seeking membership in the Florida Green Lodging Program.

Universal Resort programs focus on saving energy and recycling
In its quest for inclusion in the Florida Green Lodging Program, the Universal Orlando Resort has many conservation programs in place, all geared toward energy conservation, waste reduction and environmental protection. Super green Energy Star appliances are used across Universal’s Orlando property in addition to environmentally friendly thermostats and lighting.

The Universal Orlando Resort is also concerned about conserving Florida’s diminishing water supply. And they’re doing their part by enabling Universal hotel guests to re-use their linens and towels, thereby cutting down on laundry. The Universal theme parks and hotels save even more water by using low flow dishwashers, washing machines and hot water heaters, and by irrigating their lush landscape with reclaimed water.

Staying at a Universal Orlando Resort Hotel has its benefits
Guests at one of the three Loews hotels at the Universal Orlando Resort get special benefits that are not available to anyone else. When you choose to stay at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, the Hard Rock Hotel or the Loews Royal Pacific Resort, you have the privilege of Universal Express ride access. You still need a Universal ticket to get into the park, but once there you can legally cut ahead in line by showing your valid room key card from one of the Universal Resort hotels.

Conservation is cool. So begin saving today by getting your Universal tickets and all of your Orlando theme park tickets in one place!

The green folks at the Walt Disney World Resort celebrated Earth Day with a variety of events to commemorate this annual tribute to the world we all share. Everyone can pitch in to help save the planet we inhabit. And you can save money while you save the world when you get all of your Disney tickets here at OrlandoFunTickets.com.

Conservation is the Word at the Walt Disney World Resort
Earth Day was celebrated all around the Walt Disney World Resort. Some Disney hotel guests were treated to tree planting ceremonies at Disney’s All Star Resorts, Disney’s Pop Century Resort and Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort. Even without a Disney ticket, Walt Disney World resort guests got in on the fun of the conservation message.

All of the hotels at the Walt Disney World have recycling programs that give guests the opportunity to recycle instead of throw away. Disney hotel guests can also reuse their guestroom towels instead of sending them to the laundry every day during a multi-day stay.

Epcot Flower & Garden Festival is as Green as it Gets
The Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival is a celebration of all things garden green, so it is a wonderful way to celebrate the natural wonders of our world. One Disney ticket gives you access to a truly spectacular array of gorgeous gardens, tips, treasures and topiaries.

• Many of the exhibits at Epcot exemplify ways to make your own gardens green and healthy.
• The upcoming “I Dig Bugs” weekend shares the importance of beneficial bugs in keeping your yard and garden healthy.
• Kids get in on the conservation fun too with special displays like Peter Pan’s Never Land Garden and colorful character topiaries all over Epcot.

Walt Disney Company Announces Disneynature

This new Disney label will work solely on producing feature-length documentary films all about nature and the environment.
