ORLANDO (CBSMiami) — If your planning a summer trip to SeaWorld in Orlando to fly on Manta or check in with Shamu and his friends it's going to cost you a little more.

On Thursday the Orlando-based SeaWorld Entertainment announced a ticket price increase of $2 for the marine theme park, so now a one day ticket at the gate costs $97, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

That's the bad news.

The good news is that the price of advance-purchase tickets which can be used Monday through Friday dropped by $5, so they now cost $70.

Multi-park passes went up by a buck.

Earlier this year, Walt Disney World broke the $100 with their price increases. A single day ticket to the Magic Kingdom costs $105 and $97 for its other parks, Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom. Universal Orlando followed suit with their price increase. A single day ticket for either Universal Studios Orlando or Islands of Adventure costs $102 before taxes.
