Is this possible in just 1 day

[vikkii19]

We are planning a non-Disney day on our October trip. Would the following be possible in 1 day with the express passes?

US will be open from 9am to 5pm (closing early because of HHN)

Simpson’s ride
Men in Black
Disaster
Jaws
Twister
Jimmy Neutron
Shrek 4D
Terminator 2 3-D
E.T.

Then head to IOA which is open until 6pm
Spiderman
Dudley Do Right
Jurassic Park River Adventure
Jurassic Park Discovery Center
Eight Voyage of Sinbad
Poseidon’s Fury

We also plan on staying for HHN. Will this be too much in one day. We are 2 adults going, no kids.

Thanks

Well...it would certainly be a LONG day especially if you're staying for HHN.

If you purchase the HHN tickets ahead of time, I would recommend this strategy....

IOA first...do those attractions and then head over to the Studios. Why? Because if you will already have your HHN tickets in hand, you can stay for Stay and Scream which means you won't have to leave the park and then come back. If you purchase the HHN tickets are part of the "Stay and Scream upgrade", you can save money on the HHN tickets. Believe me when I tell you that you do NOT want to have to wait outside the main gate to be let in for HHN. I would STRONGLY suggest doing this and you will have a head start on the HHN houses. Also...we HHN regulars usually have mini-meets at Finnegan's before HHN opens.

Remember...IOA first and then the Studios.

We did the Stay & Scream last fall. Highly recommended. We nabbed a table in Finnegan's, DH had dinner and we waited there in comfort. And since we were already inside and they released us early we were able to do a couple of houses, with little lines, before the front gate folks catch up.

Good choices on the rides/attractions....but I would consider Jaws, Sinbad and Poseidon to be "Missable"....so consider that if you are running out of time on your plan....

We have ALWAYS done US/IoA in One Day

i have NEVER been able to do both parks all in it on one day, especially with an early closure.

i stay on site and use the fotl perk.

How do I get the stay and scream option. Is it when I buy my HHN tickets??

Once the HHN tickets are available, you can purchase them at any time but they are date specific so you'll have to know when you're going.

I guess the better question is....Why would you want to? I mean...isn't a vacation supposed to be relaxing?

 

[TinkerbellinLouisian]

Well - I've never had a "NON-relaxing" vaca......

Maybe I just don't "do" as much US/IoA as you do....with 3 teens....

But we've always seen and done everything we've wanted to....

Looking forward to our 5/26 visit......! Blue Man Group to finish off the night!
