These passes are good until Dec. 31, 2019, so kids have plenty of time to use them. To claim the pass, parents must purchase a voucher online and bring it to the park before April 30. It's also necessary for parents to verify their child's age with a copy of a certified birth certificate or travel passport at the park.

The passes do not include parking and can't be applied to separately ticketed events. And yes, there are some blackout dates — May 26, July 4-5, July 27, Aug. 3, Aug. 10, Sept. 1, and Dec. 29, 2019. 

And about that teacher pass: for active, credentialed California and Arizona K-12 teachers, SeaWorld San Diego is offering a complimentary Teacher Fun Card, for unlimited visits through December 31, 2019. The offer also includes two free single-day tickets for teachers.

Like the Preschool Fun Card, blackout dates will apply, and the pass must be claimed by April 30. For this pass, eligible teachers must register online with their teacher identification through SeaWorld San Diego's website. Passes can then be redeemed at the park in person, using a voucher emailed to teachers once they're verified.

All in all, 2019 is shaping up to be a great year to visit Seaworld!
