front of the line Universal tickets

[Mickeyfaniam]

I just purchased 4 of these front of the line "print at home" tickets to use this summer and nowhere in the online process did it ask me for the date I was going. I thought how could they NOT ask this and control how many of these show up on any given day? SO I called the phone number given to ask about this and I was told they honor all of them sold on line on any day. How can they do it like this if they only sell a certain number of them per day? What if way too many of these came to the park on a particular day and they couldn't possibly honor the 15 minute maximum wait.
I'm a little worried about this....I just spent $400 for my family of 4 just to make sure I can get the park done in one day.

anyone here used these tickets during a busy time of year? How was it? What was your wait time?

Are we talking Universal Florida or Universal Hollywood?

We have used FOTL for hotel guests at Universal Florida and never had a long wait - but have not been there when it was super crowded either.

Especially if it's for Florida, check the Universal section of the Dis boards - I'm sure you'll get lots of folks who can help you over there.

NO I'm talking about Universal Hollywood

I did scan that board but found its mostly about US Orlando

I did a search on this topic last night and found past posts from people who say they DID need to put in a date.

If they weren't so darn expensive I wouldn't worry about it ....I just want to get what I paid for..... I'm a born worrier

I'm thinking that maybe they just don't worry about this cuz not many people are like me..... crazy enough to buy them......especially when You can get an annual for the price of one day. I ONLY bought these because I can ONLY fit one day into my schedule

It does seem strange... if it is supposed to be a perk for a limited # of guests, they would need to know what days you are using them!
We were there (Universal Hollywood) summer season last year and don't remember seeing anyone using them (assuming they had them then) - so you may be right about not too many people paying extra and overloading the system.
We LOVE FOTL at Universal Orlando - we pay extra for that in the form of higher hotel rates to stay on site and always come away saying it was worth it!

Hope it works out well for you!

We paid extra for them in Orlando, and it was well worth the money!! But the dates for our tickets were printed on our them, and we did buy them online as well.

I agree it seems strange
