Honestly, these questions are best asked on the Theme Parks Advice & Strategies forum.So the plan is on the 12th to do disney 13th universal ( for my sons 8th bday he really wants to go to universal) with express passes for everybody. Then back to Disney on the 14th and universal one last time on Friday ( no express pass) I’m not sure what park to do first, or maybe two a day for Disney. I hear the avatar stuff is a must. I am traveling with my wife her cousin (33) my son (8) and daughter (3) should I plan a certain way? Thought...
Or borrow one from your library or its network. Read/study/memorize, then decide whether to buy one.Go to your local used bookstore and get an old “Unofficial Guide”.
Not necessarily.You are going at a very crowded time. Because you won’t be eligible for early booking for fast pass + it will be very difficult to ride popular rides without waiting hour+ in line. Be there about an hour before the park opens to improve your chances. As someone posted earlier, visit Theme Park forum for better answers.
13th universal ( for my sons 8th bday he really wants to go to universal) with express passes for everybody.
We did that in December. We stayed for one night at RP. The $500/night room (with accompanying unlimited pass) was cheaper than the $1000 we would have paid for five of us to have the "standard" (one use per ride) EP.Just for fun check out the price of a one night stay at royal pacific, hard rock, or Portofino.
Compare that price to two day tickets with express pass for the one day.
It’s possible you’ll find that compressing the two days at Universal, getting an onsite room there (you don’t have to stay there), and getting unlimited express pass for both checkin and checkout days included with the room, is the same as, and maybe a little better than express pass for all. (Depending on the size of the party of course) If the room is a bit more, remember you get two days of EP, and it’s unlimited.
