HELP ! Lots of ???

[mas6010]

I have tons of questions, we are planning a trip in Sept. 07, staying at POP the full stay. We would like to spend at least one day at US or IoA, not sure which one. It will be myself, DH, FIL, MIL, DS-9 , DS- 6. Which is the better park for the age of the kids ? They love rides and shows both. What is the easiest way for 6 people to get to US, from POP ? What is the best ticket to purchase ? We will have 5 days for the trip, would like to spend at least 3 at disney, 1 at US-IoA, and maybe one for whatever. Should I plan on 2 days at US/IoA ? Help, please

I would do 2 days. You don't get much of a feeling for a park when you are staying offsite and just venture over for one day.

I agree with damo. Stay 2 days over at US/IOA. By the 2 day 2 park ticket. Your kids will LOVE both parks.

5 days for a trip that combines Disney with Universal will be stressful unless you have decided to eliminate some parks. Universal and IOA really need 2-3 days alone for full absorption of the parks offerings. That leaves you 3 days (are they whole days?) for Disney and no down time. Will that be OK? If you do decide to choose only one at Universal I would pick The Studios. It has a very nice combination of shows/thrills/family rides and plenty to entertain you for an entire day. But really you know best what every ones interests are and can pick accordingly.

Thanks for all the help. We will have 5 full days and don't really care too much about down time. Kids are not much of sleepers and like to GO GO GO. Any ideas for getting to US/IoA ? We don't really want to rent a car as I hate driving in a different state and can't stand DH driving. Thanks

It depends how much you have to spend. You can take busses, but that is not a very efficient way to get there. Cabs aren't too bad, but you would need two for your large group. The best option is a limo if you can afford it. Very comfortable, excellent service, and very quick. There is alot of competition in Orlando, so you may be able to work a pretty good deal.
