Any plans for more Universal parks or hotels?

[Mercy]

Just wondering if there are any plans in the future for another Universal theme park (in Orlando) or another hotel? I really enjoy the US and IOA and wonder if they will eventually add another theme park. Not sure how much land they have and if they can even fit in another park.

Theres been plenty of speculation on this but I think for now thats it in fact land they own I believe spare land they had that people thought they might build on they are said to be selling but with new major shareholders u can never tell

There seems to be a fairly substantial rumor that there will be a new hotel, probably with an Egyptian theme, built on land adjacent to RPR on the other side of the RPR Convention Center (so both hotels can be used for convention-goers).

That sounds good Kelly I thought with them selling their spare land that was knocked on the head but am assuming that this land is not being sold?although only problem is if they build more hotels FOTL must be under threat or some restriction will be put on it but still that will be in future

I don't think FOTL would be put to a threat. I just think they would have to stop selling express passes or sell less to accomodate the on site guests.

Quite a few people have reported this year that the FOTL was being monitored and the attendant could tell how many times they had used their room key for FOTL there had to be a reason for that trying out new software so they could limit the use could be one of the reasons or it could have been to see how many hotel guests visited the parks but I gotta say if they expand the hotels it would be near impossible to offer unlimited FOTL I mean u may find the regular queue shorter

The "spare land" they are selling is on the other side of I-4, well away from the parks. There is still room for at least two more hotels in the southeast corner of the main property.

kelly,

How about a park? Would there be enough land to build a park anywhere besides the land they are selling?
