Help - One day at IOA

[dthogue]

Hello,

We are planning our next trip to Disney for Jan 12-21, 2003. My girls have asked to spend one day at IOA.

If we spend one night at a Universal hotel and spend the next day at IOA will we still get the Head of the Line access (are they still offering that?) Do they check each individual room ticket when entering the line? or do they just check to see that you have them? Are there any other benefits of staying onsite? How busy do you think IOA will be at this time of the year?

If we stay on-site how do I go about getting the lowest rate and which hotel is best for a family of 5 (ages 13,10and4).

Where is the best place to purchase one day park tickets?

Thanks,

Tammy

it wont be that busy during that time.

you will still get FOL access with valid room keys, which will be individually checked/scanned (the palm pilots read the magstripe and can tell if your card is still valid). the main park perk of staying onsite is FOL access all day.

as for finding rates, check on the website or call in advance and ask around.
