We are going to Disney next week June 9-16 (touring days June 10-15) so we have six days to tour. We are staying at FW cabins (family of 6) so four days minimum is slated for Disney parks and we are still unsure how to plan Universal/IOA.
DH and I went to Universal Studios on our honeymoon (1996) and have not been back since so it is a whole new world from back then. I have been reading and researching the two parks but can't really get a handle on what to expect and how much time to allot.
Had we thought it out better we might have tried a split stay, but it is too late for that and we have 2 teens and 2 toddlers so staying put in one place has its obvious advantages. But we won't be able to have early entry perks at Universal and we will have to commute there (we are driving so we will have a vehicle).
Can anyone out there with experience at the Universal parks give me some advice on how to make this work out best? Is it feasible to tackle both parks in one day or is that completely unrealistic? If we had to pick one park over the other, I am assuming the obvious choice is IOA? (My teens naturally are dying to experience WWOHP.) However, I am concerned about June crowd levels and wait times, etc.
Any advice on making this work to our best advantage (and money's worth) would be greatly appreciated!
