Good Morning! We are headed to Universal next week for the first time. When we go to Disney, we generally carry one backpack containing our phones, a few small snacks, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, etc... From what I am reading about Universal, it sounds like backpacks need to be put in lockers prior to riding most rides and they need to be fairly small to even fit in those lockers. What would you suggest as far as a bag at Universal? We also plan on having two of the freestyle mugs, otherwise we might just try to forgo a bag completely and put a few items in our shorts pockets, but I don't think this would be an option with the mugs. Would love to hear any suggestions you have from your own experiences! Thank you!
On our trips we just didn't bother with any bags. We did that at disney too. My husband wears cargo pants and we put our essentials in those pockets. I put our daily pills in a small container (1 inch), a small amount of cash, and that's it. If we need a drink we just buy one. Same with food. I have a flip phone which I don't carry with me to any park, but I know that's not the norm.
But we are older and no kids with us, so it's pretty easy. I don't like carrying a bag, especially at Universal who has so many rides that you need to put your bags in a locker. At Uni, we have lanyards for our tickets.
