2 days in US/IOA in Late June

[pjpoppins]

So we are going to check out Universal for the first time this summer. My DD10 should be old enough to enjoy some coasters now. We are staying at Fort Wilderness and will have our own transportation.

I just have no clue how to plan this out. Not touring plans or anything but tickets.
I'm thinking 2 days there, maybe not consecutive. I know I want to do express passes but idk if I should:
1) Buy park-to-park with the Unlimited express passes both days (big bucks though)
2) Buy park-to park with one unlimited day (probably the second day so first day we can figure out what we really want to do again maybe multiple times
3) "" "" with regular express passes
4) No park-to-park
5) etc etc.

Thanks.

Most of us on the boards recommend not buying the express passes till you see if you need them .They are date specific and non refundable for any reason . The downside to this is that the prices can go up and you may pay more, but they go up with the projected crowds . If you are at all interested in riding the Hogwarts express, you will NEED A PARK TO PARK ticket.

I believe I saw online that it was pretty rare for them to sell out, meaning I could buy them the day of my visit. Do you concur?

They can sell out, but not often. You'll more than likely be able to buy them on the day if you need them.

Kong may be open then which will add to numbers this year too......and Hulk will re-open too........

Definitely get park to park if you want to ride the Hogwarts Express.......
