Thanks! Hotel is very nice, honestly haven't spent much time here. Went to the pool this afternoon, had some snacks in the club lounge. It's pretty and the room is nice. Today was great! We got to UO right at 7. We were probably 8 ppl back in our line, all the lines had people. About 7:30 they...

Landed at MCO just after 1pm. Checked into RPR with my son and they offered us a free upgrade to Club level. We were at IOA by 3pm, our first time. We rode everything except the Drop ride (didn't want to) and the Pterodactyl ride (we forgot) plus had dinner at Three Broomsticks all by 9pm...

Mom of 3 here, did a solo trip about 5 years ago and loved it. Got to see what I wanted, take my time, do the Keys to the Kingdom Tour (awesome!), met up with some DIS friends who were there, had an old college pal meet me in Epcot one day. I would totally do it again, it was a fun trip. I was...

I will be at Universal next week Thu and Fri. Planning IA on Thursday, UO on Friday. I'll be with my 12 year old son and it's his first time, my first in over 20 years. Looking to just eat Quick Service as this trip is all about the rides. I would like to find places that might have more...

LOL, that's too funny, great minds think alike! Yes may our waits be short! This is just a trip with my son. We have a family tradition, 12th birthday means a Mom and Me trip. I have 2 older girls and their trips were so much fun but they chose Discovery Cove as their extra to Disney. My son...

I'd like to follow this thread. My son and I will be there next week, planning Friday as our UO Day and we are staying at RPR so we will have EE. If they open at 8am for EE I know I've read to get there earlier than that to line up. What do you suggest? 7am? Earlier? First time to Universal, I'm...

Thank you very much for the tips! Will have to consider that 3 day ticket. I need to re-look over our Disney itinerary. I know we have an ADR Saturday but I'm pretty sure I made it for a dinner so we could have the morning at US if we wanted to do that. Thanks for giving me so ideas to think about!

Hi! I'm such a huge planner when I go to Disney but this US trips has me feeling like I have no idea where to start. It'll be me (44) and my son (12) for his bday trip. Aug 14-20, split between US and Disney. We are at RPH Aug 14 and 15 and then AKL Aug 16-20. Our flight lands that Th in...

DH and I will be at Portofino Bay in November for 3 nights. No rental car, probably just a day at a park, it's really a getaway without kids to relax by the pools. We have never been here before. If you could recommend 3 places to eat dinner either at the hotels or Citywalk what would you...

Got a postcard in the mail with a code for 40% off. I sent it to my TA and she got my room reduced from $1151 for the 3 nights to $767, I'll take it! 3 nights at Portofino, deluxe room. First Universal stay in November, looking forward to it :)

Thank you all very much! I've been doing a lot of looking online and reading reviews and I do think Portofino would be the best one for us. It does look very nice and romantic too! Allyson

Just signed up at Universal's website for emails so hoping maybe I'll get one sometime soon. Planning a trip in November just for DH and I. Just curious does the PIN you received cover Nov 19-22 in the dates it is good? Allyson

I am a Disney freak and I almost feel like I'm cheating by coming to this Universal board! Ack! Was just at WDW a few weeks ago, myself and my 3 kids. Great trip. DH was on a work trip elsewhere, just as well, he is NOT a fan of the Mouse. So from this last trip I had a nice credit with...

Leaving in 2 days! Pulling out suitcases today and starting to pack! My DH leaves for his 2 week work trip to Brazil in a few hours so the 3 kids and I will get ourselves in packing mode. Finally!!!!

9 more days!! Can't wait!!!!!

9 more days! Single digit dancing!:banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:

Happened to me on two different trips to Orlando with Delta and that is when I said enough is enough. Each time they'd move me I'd lose all our seat assignments. It was frustrating. I switched to JB and love them. I paid more this upcoming trip (11 days!) than I ever have to fly to FL but JB...

We've done the regular DDP numerous times and never found it to be too much food. We use the CS usually for an early lunch and the TS for a dinner. We all love TS (I have foodie kids, last trip with just the middle DD she loved sushi and filet at Cali Grill, her birthday dinner choice) and look...
