Is it possible to visit both parks in one day?

If you don't mind sharing a bit more information, people can help answer that better for you.

What date are yo looking at going? Will you get Express Pass or stay at one of the 3 hotels that give Express Pass for free? What rides/shows/etc are you most interested in doing for sure?

If you want to see & do everything; then no, probably not. If you only want to see a few things, it's a slow time, you have Express, etc; it will be a full non-stop day, but maybe!

We went day before last Thanksgiving. Stayed at portifino so we had early entry and express passes. Did both parks and got everything in that we wanted. Our longest wait was 45 min for the Hogwarts train because express pass doesn't work for the Harry Potter rides. . That's where early entry helps.

We went in the start of Nov, got there at open did both sides of Harry Potter, including Hogwarts Express twice, transformers, MIB, Minions, Shrek, Spider Man, JP, Hulk and Ripsaw Falls. We did not feel rushed. It was a group of 7, all teenagers or older. Much will depend on your party and what time of year.

We are planning on going on a thurs in mid sept, right before Halloween Horror nights.. my husband has never been to either parks.. I have been to both, but it has been awhile.. My hubby doesn't want to feel rushed.. so he's thinking only one park.. but I want to see both...and we are staying on disney property and have access to a car. I love the original park.. so I'm up in the air on what to do..

If you finish the studios with lots of hours of park time left, you can upgrade to the p2p tickets that day and hit IOA

But just take your time at the studios and it might last you all day
Take in the street shows such as the mini parade near horror make up show, daily parade, blues brothers outside show, character meet up with scooby, Simpsons, etc
