Going to Universal for 1st time -- some general questions?

[clareml]

We're going to Universal for the first time, but were in Disney World four years ago. Is there still a bus to take you from the airport to your hotel? Also which resort is best and what restaurants in the park are good (nice sit down restaurant)?

airport to Universal resort? Honestly not sure...

Best Universal resort? I honestly really like the Royal Pacifc Resort. Nice walk to the parks...and the rooms were beautiful.

Nice sit down restaurants in the parks?
IOA - Mythos
US - Finnegan's

also at City walk we enoyed Margaritaville and the Nascar Cafe (yes, a sit down place)

All of the Universal resorts are wonderful. The Hard Rock and the Royal Pacific are an easy walk to the parks.
Our all time favorite restaurant there is MYTHOS is Islands of Adventure. Great atmosphere, wonderful food. In Universal Studios we really like Lombard's Landing for a great sit down lunch or dinner.

I know that Mears gets you from the airport to Disney. I don't know if they also do a airport to Universal run. I'd think they would.

Yes, Mears does run vans to Universal Hotels. Go to www.mearstransportation.com for their prices.
