Early entry - which park?

[sarahb74]

We are planning 2 full days at US/IOA when we stay onsite, with another day later in our trip. Originally both parks were open for early entry on our first day but only IOA for our second so I thought we would start at US on day 1 and IOA on day 2. They have now added early entry to US on day 2 so we can do it either way or start in the same park both days. What do you all think? Is there a better park to do for early entry? Which would you start with? Thanks

I would flip a coin to make that decision

Either one would work for me

I would probably do IOA just because you can line up early for Kong.

I like both parks for EE. Diagon Alley shops are very nice and empty in the morning. And as Damo said, you can get a jump on Kong by doing IOA early.

Great, thanks. Will probably see what the kids feel like doing on day 1 and do the opposite on day 2!

If you have 2 mornings, then do EE at one park and then EE at the other park the second day. That way you can take advantage of both. You will probably finish up with the morning park about half way through the day, and if you have park-to-park tickets, you can then take Hogwart's Express in both directions. It's different each way. This is usually what we do. If you only have 1 morning, then do IOA at EE. Ride Forbidden Journey, then queue up for Kong.
