Express in November 2014

[rlu929s]

Wondering if there's any need as most crowd calendars say low levels. We are staying on-site at a US resort and trying to decide if it's worth it going deluxe or trying the new hotel and giving up the express passes and saving $$$.

Early November has low crowds.
Tday period will reflect a rise in crowds.

What are your dates?

Diagon Alley will be open so crowd levels at the Studios should rise. It's too early to make a firm decision on EPs but if you can swing it, stay with the hotel you have. I imagine early entry for Diagon Alley will be included for the onsite guests staying at one of the three deluxe properties.

agree..we are going the end of November and staying onsite, and I am expecting the crowds to be a bit heavier than normal too

yep, we are planning to go mid-november (before Thanksgiving week) and stay onsite at RPH so we will have the express pass. I would be surprised if crowd levels were even close to the normal low season levels in Studios with Diagon Alley opening this year.

That is a good point about Diagon Alley. Correct me if I'm wrong but it's in the USF park and not IOA right?

We'll actually be at US on Dec 4th and 5th, so the week after Thanksgiving. Not sure why I put Nov in title other than we're leaving in Nov

Do you guys know if we buy now and they offer a special like $500 off or some deal you see now. Will they honor it?

I'm not expecting they will have anything TBH, since Diagon Alley will be out. I'm guessing that's why most deals are ending in May

Diagon alley is in in the Studios.
If they have a special you can call and try and get it adjusted.
I am doubting any major deals.They wont need to offer them

If we stay at a Deluxe and check-in on Dec 3rd and checkout on Dec 5th. When do the Express Passes cover as we'll be going to the parks on Dec 4th and 5th and leaving right after the park to make it home by Sunday.

In looking online it almost seems like they'd cover Dec 3rd and 4th?

You will have the express passes for Dec 3rd once you check in till park close on December 5th
