Newbie with ? about IOA and HHN

[Coreynov902]

My wife & I will be coming to Orlando next week and have tickets for IOA & HHN. Our main reason for going to IOA instead of US was the Hulk & Dueling Dragons (love roller coasters). I realize that the main draw to HHN is the houses and stuff, but would we have been better off to get US tickets during the day and then ride the Hulk and Dueling Dragons that night during HHN? Think we maybe made a bad decision. Also, if you purchase tickets online for IOA, can you change to US or are you out of luck?

Welcome to the Dis!
You'll want to do the haunted houses at night and will find there is very little time to spare. The lines may get lengthy. Ride the coasters during the day(although the Hulk is a different experience after dark).

I went to HHN last night and the Hulk line was 45 mins not even an hour after opening, and that was on a non-peak night!
During the day, you can get express passes to ride Hulk and DD so that you won't have to wait in line. Take the time during the day to enjoy the coasters. I agree that Hulk is a totally different experience at night, but I just can't wait 45 mins in line for anything, lol!
Plus, if you are going to HHN on a peak night, you can hop over to the section of the studios that is open and ride ROTM!

I guess I've had good luck with the coaster wait times. On opening night, there was only a 10 minute wait for Hulk at 7:30pm and Dueling Dragons was 15 minutes at 9pm. When we were leaving Wednesday night around 10pm, the wait for Hulk was only 15 minutes.
