Dreams UnlimitedTransportation from Disney Port OrleansRiverside to Universal Orlando

[ekk205]

Hello! I've just paid for tickets through the Dreams unlimited site for one day, a round trip from my resort, Disney Port Orleans Riverside to Universal. If Universal opens at 9am, and I want to arrive at the park at 8:30am to work out my ticket pick up, what time should I schedule my shuttle?

Also, someone said that the tickets purchased from Dreams Unlimited allow you an extra hour earlier into the park? Is this true?

Thank you! Also, any extra tips for my Disney vacation/resort would be fantastic, if you have any.

Ah, that answers my question as to how you're fretting to US/IoA! I have used the DU passes/transportation many times. I haven't been able to enter either park early. Perhaps I just haven't hit the right time though. It's nothing I would count on..if it works out, terrific. I know that those staying at an IoA/US resort get in to one of the parks an hour early. I wouldn't be thrilled if I found WDW people getting in at the same time just because they bought a shuttle ticket with a park pass.
As for timing, I would try to get on a bus no later than 7:45.

We have used that option 3 times and twice were allowed in early. The last time, we were picked up at 7:20 and arrived just prior to 8 AM, thinking we would try for early entry again. Whoops...they had changed hours and IoA was now opening at 8!

so it sounds kind of like early entry for shuttle guests is a 'maybe if you're lucky' kind of thing? I was thinking of getting there early and just shopping citywalk if we needed to wait....
