Early Entry....Anyone been in the last few weeks that can tell me which park has EE?

I've read that in September they changed EE to just Universal Studios not IOA. Has anyone been there recently? I can't find any official news on this. What time will the train leave to take you over to IOA?

There a few weeks ago and it was just EE at Universal. The train didn't start until IOA was open.

And just FYI, a line will form before it opens. We didn't really think about that, and it threw a small kink into our last (half-day of touring. Of course, we didn't want to leave, either.....DA is just amazing.

Still only at US and the train doesn't start running till IOA is open but people are lined up before that

Sorry to thread jack but I have a somewhat related question.

We are onsite with 5 in the room. My MIL is meeting us down there but not one of the five. Can she come in with us for EE or does everyone need to have a key?

Everyone needs to show their room key when entering the park for EE. We just came back from vacation, so I can tell you the rule is enforced. They didn't check when we passed the turnstiles, but there was a 'road block' a few steps up the main street, and we all had to show our valid keys there before we could continue further into the park.

everyone needs a key.They do check and they do enforce it

they hotel early entry line is marked "hotel guests"
each person that enters this specific line, shows their hotel room.

no hotel key, you are turned away.

guests are already screened for EE by the time they use their park ticket/pass.

Okay, so Early Entry is only good for Universal Studios Wizarding World of Harry Potter?

We'll be there this weekend. Good to know where and when. I would assume a line will form at the entrance to Universal Studios and we just line up early before the posted opening time that day at least 90 minutes earlier to the park opening?

Stupid question: What is the key like? Is it on a lanyard or anything? Or just a card like the old WDW KTTW?
