3 day Park-to-Park Tickets (one at each?)

[Carolynleanne]

Two adults, two grandparents, 3 kids under 12 - first visit. Going mid-November. MOST of us arent into big rides and dont love screen rides that much. Most will do Hagrids and Jurassic River Ride, but that's about as intense as we'll do. Is three days going to be enough time to do all we want? Main pulls are Harry Potter, live shows, and Grinchmas (we'll be there opening day.)

(One at each?). Are you spending a day at Volcano Bay as well?

Three days with Express Passes would be enough to do all the rides and multiple rerides at UO and IOA. Two days would be slightly short for me.

You will probably be okay with 2-3 days, depending how in depth you get spending time in the wizarding world areas. I would suggest 1/2 day at VB and 2.5 days at the other parks, otherwise why bother getting park-to-park tickets?

JP River Adventure should be okay level of wetness (it's less splashy if you aren't in the front row, and when it's cool out). But do be aware if you go on the other two water rides that you will be wring-out-the-panties level soaked.

I would create a mental list of priorities, because you won't have time to do everything. The shows take some time but are really top notch.

Thanks! Yes, we’ve got volcano bay as well and three full days to dedicate to the parks. We also have one day at sea world and one at discovery cove.

I think you'd be fine with the 3 day, especially as you have park-to-park and are not going to be on the bigger thrill rides. It's easy to go back and forth between the parks.

I think three days is good for IOA + USF. I've done three days in early November with no EP before - I could have wished that we did our favorite rides a few more times, but we did everything we wanted to do, include the HP shows, the Bourne shows, and some wand time.

For two days at the parks + 1 day at Volcano Bay, I think you will need to prioritize your must-dos at IOA + USF.

If we did Volcano Bay in the afternoons/before closing only, do you think we’d be able to get on the water coaster? It’s predicted to be a pretty quiet week

In Nov, probably. "Winter" water park attendance is lower generally. You should be able to see the waits on the App. Maybe check a week or 2 before your trip what the afternoon waits for it are looking like.

Thank you!
