    Where to stay? Universal Area

    We are a family of 4 travelling with 2 daughters 9 and 6 in August 2025. My kids are not keen on big rides but is it still worth the extra ££££ to book a US premium hotel with express Pass? Or do you think early hours at a universal resort hotel would be enough? We will have 3 days for universal...

    Universal closing time question

    We have our family's first Universal trip coming up and the park closes quite early on a few days during our trip (one day it's 6pm!). Are guests ushered out of the park right at closing time?

    DCL & Universal

    My two biggest takeaways from Pete & the Dis Unplugged cast since Covid & Chapek. 1. DCL is a better value than WDW. 2. People are choosing Universal over Disney. I haven’t been on a cruise yet, so I can’t speak to the first point, but I would absolutely be willing to try one with my partner or...

    Why I made the switch to Universal Orlando

    I have to admit that I am a Disney Fanatic! My office walls are covered in Minnie Ears. My amazon wish list looks like it was made by a 7 year old princess. I have been on Disney cruises, to the Tokyo Disney Resort, to the Paris Disney Resort, DCA, and to World more times than I can count! I...

    Opening Day at Epic Universe

    I know this is mostly useless speculation at this point, but I'm really curious how the first day/days of Epic Universe are going to go. Obviously, there hasn't been a new theme park open in Orlando in a while. Looking into operations/media coverage/crowds for the opening of Animal Kingdom or...

    Rock the Universe Crowds

    I am staying at Universal over the 2023 Rock the Universe event. Does anyone know if the crowd from the event effects the park crowds the week before or after?

    Hi everyone, I’m trying to plan for a March 31 visit to UHS but their website only has hours for Feb. Why would they not post hours ahead for people to plan? Any guesses as to what the hours would be that day?
