I just wanted to share my great experience planning a last minute trip to Universal. I was trying to decide between going to Disney or Universal less than a week out. We decided on universal, staying at the Portofino to get the express pass. We stayed in the minion kid suite and the kids loved it for the decoration and privacy.
I was worried it would be really crowded because of the holiday, but the crowds were really manageable and with the express pass we walked onto almost every ride. Longest wait was for fast and the furious. We also made dinner reservations the night before with no issue. I don’t think going to Disney last minute would have been as easy.
So if you’re on the fence between where to go and doing it last minute I highly recommend Universal. We had a great vacation.
