Either way it is the same price so it is just better if you get them online and they can just check you in faster.

It's better to order them online. Otherwise you have to stand in line to get them. The line can be very long at certain times.

If you're in the area for a few days also consider a membership. Price difference is all that significant and the ability to make a couple shorter trips was nice with smaller children.

There are lines sometimes, so buying on-line can be useful to avoid that. Of course if you go on an early Thursday in winter, there are usually no lines anyway. Saturday in summer, you can save yourself 15-20 minutes.

We found that if we bought them from the Tides hotel we got 2 days for the price of one.

Buy a ticket online and if you have it online ticket you can just go straight in beacuse there is a line for buying a ticket sometime

Like everyone else said, the lines can get long. Easier to purchase in advance.

When I went there, the queue was pretty small (less than a 1 minute wait; this was at around 11am on a weekend), but buying online avoids the gamble :)
