Last minute, we realized we could start our trip to Disney one day earlier and that opened up an opportunity to try Universal, but sadly just for one day.
We are military so that is one free ticket. I won a free ticket earlier this year through that sweepstakes and one son is 2 and that leaves us with 1 ticket to buy - Seems very affordable so far Oh - we arrive on the 10th of June...so very last minute..lol
I was able to get reservations as the RPR hotel under a military rate for 2 nights (arriving around midnight). I figured staying on site was a MUST for only 1 full day in the park. But now what do I plan on doing to maximize my day?
There will be 2 adults and 2 kids (2 and 7) The 7 year old is like 51" so he should be good for most rides and hates roller coasters and LOVES simulators. Daddy loves roller coasters but he never makes them a priority so kid fun will be top of our list. We were thinking that if we could only do 1 park well - we should aim for IOA. Am I off base? Or with FOTL access are both parks possible if done at warp speed?
Are advance dining reservations needed at Mythos and if so, how do I do this? I hate feeling so green since I know Disney this unprepared would be a huge disappointment.
I have been reading as much as I can but its becoming overwhelming.
Any other tips in regards to the hotel and/or the parks would be very appreciated as I am still shocked I am adding all this on last minute
Thanks in advance
