IOA for a newbie?

[ocalla]

My family and I have been to WDW several times and are again going this May. We have decided to include IOA for the first time. Does Universal offer any Vacation planning videos like Disney does?

Also is there anyway to receive an IOA park map before leaving for our trip?

Any tips for us would be great.

TIA

We actually received a video foc from "Virgin" whom we booked for our last trip. So I'm sure there will be others.

I have a map from just over a year ago, but I'm sure DM or our Barry would be happy to email you a more up-to-date version.
You will love both IOA and Universal - there is so much to do - most people find they need at least one day at each park and another day to do the best of both. If you are able to stay at one of the on-site hotels - this gives you front of the line access to nearly all the rides and priority seating at the restaurants - a huge bonus and makes the holiday more relaxing.

I don't think US/IOA offer a video anymore, I tried to get one last year, no luck!

I had to work at IOA last week, which was quite...different...
I do have some of the recently updated maps available. ;)

I saw a commercial the other night for the vacation "video" on tv. If I see it again, I'll get the number......... I think it was on the travel channel.
